Fires of different sizes burn across the ground in perspective, shrinking and dimming toward the horizon while dark smoke columns climb and drift with the wind.
Darkness closes in from the frame edges as needle-tipped smoky tendrils creep toward the centre in layers of depth, curl and grasp, then recede, lit by a faint violet inner rim and drifting purple ember flecks. The centre stays transparent for compositing.

Darkness closes in from the frame edges as needle-tipped smoky tendrils creep toward the centre in layers of depth, curl and grasp, then recede, lit by a faint violet inner rim and drifting purple ember flecks. The centre stays transparent for compositing. It belongs to the Backgrounds / VFX category on velements, where you edit it in the browser and download it as a finished video file.
Every control in the editor, grouped the same way there. Style: background, primary, secondary and accent. Layout: aspect ratio and scale. Motion: duration, density, variation and intensity. Each change appears in the live preview straight away, and editing is free.
Shadow Tendrils runs 8 seconds by default, and you can set any length up to 60 seconds before you export. It loops seamlessly, so you can repeat it on your timeline for as long as the shot needs.
Yes. Set the background to Transparent, then export a PNG sequence for Premiere Pro, After Effects, DaVinci Resolve, Final Cut Pro or Figma: import the first frame as an image sequence and it drops onto a track above your footage with a straight alpha channel. Export WebM with a VP9 alpha channel for the web and for CapCut. MP4 has no alpha channel, so it keeps a solid color or image behind the animation.
Yes. Each download comes with a perpetual commercial license in your name for client work, ads and products, and you may sell the edited clip on stock footage sites. Reselling the preset itself as an editable template is not allowed.
Fires of different sizes burn across the ground in perspective, shrinking and dimming toward the horizon while dark smoke columns climb and drift with the wind.
A fireball ignites from gathering sparks, swells into a roiling orb of flame around a white-hot core, streaks across the frame trailing fire and smoke, then bursts into flame, embers and smoke on impact.
Low fog rolls across the bottom of the frame in parallax layers, thickening and thinning as it drifts past.
A frost line races along the ground and faceted, translucent ice shards burst up from it one cluster after another toward the camera, throwing ice chips and rolling frost mist.
Thin ribbons of smoke curl up from a single point, fold around each other and soften into haze as they climb.
An emergency road flare lies burning with an intense red-pink sputtering flame, spitting sparks while pinkish smoke drifts off and a red light pool glows around it.
A thick column of billowing smoke rises from the bottom of the frame, curls, spreads and thins out as it drifts with the wind.
Rolling vortex rings of smoke rise one after another, widening and slowing until each one loosens and breaks apart into haze.
