How to use this asset+

This 1080x1080 transparent video asset is 3 seconds long and exports in WebM (with alpha channel) and ProRes 4444 formats.

Premiere Pro: Place on a track above your footage. For fire, sparks, and light effects, set the Blend Mode to Screen or Add in Effect Controls. For confetti and physical particles, keep at Normal.

DaVinci Resolve: Drop on a track above footage. Set Composite Mode in the Inspector to Screen for luminous effects (sparks, fire) or Normal for physical particles (confetti, snow).

Final Cut Pro: Add above your primary storyline. Use Inspector > Compositing to set blend mode. Screen works best for glowing particles, Normal for solid ones.

CapCut: Add as an overlay layer. Use the blend mode picker — Screen for fire and sparks, Normal for confetti and falling elements.

Tips

  • Use Screen blend mode for fire, embers, sparks, and energy effects — it preserves brightness values and makes them appear to glow over your footage.
  • Use Normal blend mode for confetti, snow, and physical particle effects that need to appear as solid objects.
  • Set opacity to 60–80% for subtle atmospheric effects. Full opacity works for emphasis moments only.
Frequently asked questions+

What blend mode should I use for fire versus confetti?
