Flash transitions plugin
for After Effects

Using Premiere Pro? Check out the Premiere Pro version of flash transitions

Traditional flash transitions require stacking layers, adjusting opacity, and fine-tuning blend modes. This plugin eliminates the extra steps, letting you apply smooth flicker transitions and camera flashes with a single click. Whether you're editing music videos, action sequences, or promo content, you get dynamic visuals without slowing down your workflow. Adjust intensity, duration, and speed directly inside After Effects to match your style.
