Testimonials
This is one of the best products I’ve purchased in a long time! To be honest, I’m very experienced with photography, but not so much with video. I’ve only used After Effects a handful of times. That said… I created a small gem with a recently shot sunrise sunflower photo…Now my mind is filling with slideshow projects I’d like to make, too! - KLMarkert

For the best results using the action, it is recommended to use high resolution photos in the range of 1500px – 3500px. The optimal range is from 2000px – 3500px. The detail and clarity in the effects generated by the actions reduce the smaller your photo is.For the best results using the Motion Kit, it is recommended to crop the results before running the Motion Kit Exporter to HD or 4K resolution, 1920×1080 or 3840×2160.
Recommended Computer Specifications
For optimal HD video performance, we recommended at least an i5 processor with 12GB of Ram or more.For optimum 4K performance, an i7 processor with at least 16GB – preferably 32GB or more – of Ram is recommended. Working with 4K elements is very taxing on CPU and Ram and is recommended only for advanced After Effects users.

They are created in a way that both Photoshop and After Effects beginners and experts can use, saving you lots of time working on both personal or commercial projects.We have put countless hours into putting the work in so you don’t have to.
