Rendered on the GPU from our own shader code. The download has both colorways as 4K MP4s, 4K stills and an After Effects project.
About this loop
Glossy layers of liquid color slide out from under each other behind a single pane of reeded glass that covers the right side of the frame. On the left the pour is seen clear; through the pane it breaks into fine reeds, each squeezing and mirroring its slice, so you see clear and fluted glass side by side. The pane's polished bevel bends the pour and carries one long highlight. Comes in a dark and a warm colorway.
Questions
What are the two colorways?
Dark is ink and navy with one ice-blue light. Warm is ember, rose and amber on a near-black ground. Both come in every download, so you can match the season or the stage lighting.
How do they loop?
Every moving part repeats exactly every 20 seconds, so the last frame flows into the first with no jump. Set your player to loop, or place copies end to end.
Will my lyrics be readable?
Long Wave and Contour Flute keep the middle dark and quiet, made for white lyrics. Molten Wave keeps its upper half open, so set lyrics high. Folding Sheet, Split Panel and Straight Reeds carry light through the middle: use them for walk-in and moments without text, or put lyrics in a lower third.
What can I change?
Each loop's After Effects project has a comp per colorway with Speed (whole numbers keep the loop intact), Brightness, Hue Shift, Glow and Vignette. The glass itself is rendered into the movie.
What can I play them in?
Anything that plays an .mp4: ProPresenter, Resolume, EasyWorship, OBS, Premiere Pro, Final Cut Pro or DaVinci Resolve. The After Effects projects need After Effects 2023 or newer. No plugins.
Can I buy one loop?
No. The loops are sold as one pack. They're also included in Launchframe Unlimited.
Can I use them in services and client work?
Yes. Use them in services, events, livestreams and client work, including monetized video. You can't resell or share the files themselves.
What if it doesn't work for me?
Email hello@launchframe.io within 14 days and I'll fix it or refund you.
