Download Anime Punch and Kick Impact Video Effects

These anime fighting VFX are incredibly easy to use! Just drag and drop, and you’re ready to go. We have 10 total assets, all hand drawn and 4K resolution to fit any combat scene.

 

 

If you’re looking to stylize them a bit more, adding some chromatic aberration goes a long way! Dropping the opacity and adding a Fast Radial Blur at the point of impact will enhance these even more. These are extremely fun to use, once you get the hang of adding them to your videos, you’ll be able to stylize them in no time!

Become Kakashi with VFX!

Who isn’t inspired by their childhood? The aesthetics and styles we grew up with influence us daily. I took that inspiration to another level.

Kakashi, a character from the Naruto anime series, was always one of my favorites. His awesome powers were always so iconic, I knew I had to try and recreate them with VFX.

Electricity is always a fun effect to tackle. We’ve done it many times over, but we’ve never captured REAL electricity, at least until now. Using a tesla coil and a Black Magic Ursa, we shot practical electricity. We made a Chidori, or Electric Energy Ball, completely FREE for anyone to download and recreate this effect themselves. No good VFX asset is good enough without the right sound. Niko went ahead and made a specialty Chidori Sound Effect, also completely free, for you to download.

This tutorial uses the amazing Face Relighter Plugin. If you have both Windows and Element3D, you can try it out yourself!

Hand Drawn Anime Fire Effects

We’ve been getting into some classic Hand Drawn Effects recently! Adobe Animate is a powerful tool, and also happens to be a lot of fun. We’re taking our doodling skills from high-school (maybe the only thing we’ve remembered from those times) and using them to create awesome transitions, fire effects, lighting and more.

4K Toon and Anime Fire VFX

Here’s a timelapse of one of our Fire Animations you can download from FootageCrate. These take a lot of time to perfect, but they’re well worth it!

If you’re curious about Adobe Animate, we’ve made a thorough introductory video on how to use it. We made sure to cover all the information we found useful, so don’t be intimidated by it! There’s a lot to cover, but the software itself is very user-friendly.

New Anime FX!

Anime FX are some of the most fun assets you can use in your projects. They can be used in animations, films, and motion-graphics projects. Our Anime FX are great for exaggerating motion or adding impact. They can be used subtly or deployed in a spectacular fashion. We just added 20 New Anime FX to our libraries, ready for you to download!

Check out this example from our latest show, VFXperiments where we utilize some Anime FX in the title animation.

If you were tasked with creating a similar title card you might not think to use Anime FX but with some simple coloring and texturing Adrian was able to make them appear like a more retro-cartoon animation. Notice how the dust elements exaggerate the motion of the letters, the bubbles add to the vibe of the UFO and the liquid gives the end of the animation an extra touch of fun? Find how you want to animate your titles and then add these effects on afterwards, blending the two, and you will have an amazing project.

 

Think outside of the box when you use these! You can add on to pre-existing animations, like our Lower Thirds Script  or in tandem with some Text Animation like this Bouncy Text Effect in AE

 

However you choose to utilize them, you’ll have a fun time. Enjoy!
