Free Snow, Smoke, Fire, Rain and Confetti Overlays
Particle overlays add weather, atmosphere and celebration to a shot that was filmed clean. A bit of drifting snow turns a winter clip festive, smoke adds menace, embers sell a fire, and confetti makes a milestone feel like one.
Each is a transparent clip. Lay it on a track above your footage; no keying and usually no blend mode needed.

11Snow overlays
Falling snow works best when it has depth, with large soft flakes in front and small ones behind. Use it on winter scenes, holiday intros and cosy vlogs.
Smoke and fog overlays
Slow, low-contrast smoke gives scenes mood. Stack two smoke layers at different speeds and opacities to get natural depth.
Fire and ember overlays
Rising embers and sparks add heat to gaming clips, title cards and impact moments.
Rain and confetti
Rain streaks suit dramatic and moody scenes. Confetti is the go-to for subscriber milestones, giveaways and wins. Export ProRes 4444 for Premiere Pro, DaVinci Resolve and Final Cut Pro, and WebM with alpha for OBS and the web. Transparent WebM can show glow or shadow artifacts in CapCut, so preview it there first.
