A small yellow star is swallowed in turn by an orange giant, a red giant, a blue supergiant and a red hypergiant, each swelling up behind the last while the camera pulls back. Boiling granulated surfaces, limb darkening and glow over a drawn starfield, with editable labels.

A small yellow star is swallowed in turn by an orange giant, a red giant, a blue supergiant and a red hypergiant, each swelling up behind the last while the camera pulls back. Boiling granulated surfaces, limb darkening and glow over a drawn starfield, with editable labels. 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. Content: labels. Typography: label font. Style: background, primary, secondary, accent and text color. Layout: aspect ratio. Motion: duration, density, variation and intensity. Each change appears in the live preview straight away, and editing is free.
Star Size Comparison Zoom runs 12 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.
Bright blue-white and orange stars whip around an unseen dark mass on tight elliptical orbits, racing at closest approach and leaving glowing trails, inside a crowded red-orange galactic core crossed by warm dust lanes. Stars are drawn.
A dense ball of thousands of stars packed toward a glowing core, with orange red giants and blue stragglers twinkling as the cluster drifts slowly over faint field stars and distant galaxies.
A full moon climbs out of a forested horizon, glowing orange low in the sky, then the earth's shadow sweeps across its face and turns it a deep copper red while its halo reddens and more stars appear. The night landscape is drawn as a full scene.
A comet glides over the stars with a glowing coma, a straight bluish ion tail streaming in knots and a broad curved dust tail shedding fine grains.
A dark planet with a thin glowing atmosphere crosses a granulated, limb-darkened star while a brightness graph below dips in sync, computed from the disc overlap. Stars are drawn over the background.
The Milky Way arches over a dark mountain range: a dense river of stars with a warm glowing core, dark dust lanes and faint coloured clouds, drifting slowly overhead while stars twinkle and the odd meteor flashes past. The night landscape is drawn as a full scene.
A detailed generic moon with dark maria, craters and bright ray splashes waxes from new to full and wanes back, with a soft terminator, crater shadows that lengthen near it and faint earthshine on the dark side. Editable phase names fade in beneath it over a drawn starfield.
Six generic worlds, from a cratered dwarf moon to a banded gas giant, arrive one after another in a row while the camera pulls back to keep them all in frame. Lit spheres with clouds, ice caps, rings and storms over a drawn starfield, with editable labels.
