VLFilm clip effects

Applies to 0.11Updated 6 Nov 20261 min read

20 VLFilm effects for a single clip, in six groups: picture-in-picture frames, light, film texture, blur, camera moves that need no keyframes, and cinematic bars. A Pro feature.

Find them in the Effects panel › Video Effects › VLFilm, in six groups. Inside the folder the names drop the word "VLFilm"; searching "VLFilm" still finds them all. Drop one on a clip and set it in Effect Controls. VLFilm is part of Pro (Pro tools and the PRO badge).

• Picture in Picture: Long Shadow, Rounded Crop (each side, corner roundness, feather and stroke) and Stroke.
• Light & Glow: Edge Glow, Glint, Glow, Light Leaks (moving, in five colour sets) and Light Rays.
• Film & Texture: Film Look (grain, dust, scratches, flicker and gate weave), Hex Mosaic, RGB Split, Sepia and VHS Tape.
• Blur & Focus: Blur Fill (Shorts), Bokeh Blur and Tilt-Shift.
• Camera & Motion: Animate In & Out: Grow, Shrink, Slide from any side, Spin or Fade at the clip's start and end, with the VLFilm easing; Camera Drift, a slow handheld float; and Ken Burns / Punch-In. No keyframes are needed.
• Frame: Cinematic Bars.

The newest five are explained in Sepia, Blur Fill, Ken Burns, Cinematic Bars and VHS Tape. The transitions are in VLFilm transitions.
