Dust motes drifting in a light beam

Warm dust drifting through a shaft of light on black, denser at the top of frame and thinning below. Screen it over an interior to make the air visible; over a landscape it reads as pollen.

A embers, sparks, fire and glitter shot from the video overlay collection.

About this clip

Every clip in this collection is AI-generated and hand-picked. Each one is light or particles against a black background, which is what makes them work as overlays: black disappears under a screen or lighten blend, leaving only the light.

Questions

How do I use a video overlay?+

Drop the clip on a layer above your footage and set the blend mode to screen or lighten. The black background disappears and only the light or particles remain. Lower the layer opacity to control the strength.

Can I use these clips commercially?+

Yes. All clips are licensed for commercial use in videos, ads, and client projects. You cannot resell or redistribute the raw clips themselves.

Do the overlays have a watermark?+

No. Every clip downloads as a clean HD mp4 with no watermark and no signup.
