A sky timelapse from afternoon to night: clouds drift as the sun sinks through golden hour into a red sunset, the dusk afterglow fades, town lights switch on along the hills and the stars come out. The whole sky and landscape are drawn. 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.
Sky Day to Night runs 10 seconds by default, and you can set any length up to 60 seconds before you export. It plays once from start to finish, so it drops straight onto a cut or an opening.
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.

A long-exposure night road curves toward a lit skyline: white headlight streams flow toward you in one carriageway while red taillights stream away in the other, under amber street lamps. The city scene is drawn in full.
Tiny bright aircraft cross a blue sky, each leaving twin white contrails that merge, widen, drift and slowly fade behind it.
As the rain thins and sunlight breaks onto the hills, a primary rainbow with faint supernumerary bands fades in against a dark storm sky, followed by a fainter reversed secondary bow with the darker band between them. The sky, rain and hills are drawn as a full scene.
Heavy storm clouds roll past in layers while lightning flickers inside them, lighting up one cell after another from within.
Grey shafts of distant rain hang below a low cloud base over rolling hills, slanting in the wind and drifting slowly across the landscape.
A long-exposure night sky: stars start as points and stretch into concentric arcs around the celestial pole above a dark ridge of hills and pines.
A low winter sun glares through icy haze inside a 22-degree halo ring, flanked by two rainbow-edged sundogs and crowned by an upper tangent arc, while diamond-dust crystals glint over a snowy tree line. The sky and landscape are drawn as a full scene.
