About the Pack
The pack contains thirty plus video assets of Vaporwave and Synthwave video clips. Most of the assets are loopable elements and backgrounds, but there are also some Luma mattes and extra images included.
With loopable elements and background, this pack includes Luma mattes and extra images.
As mentioned, all of the video clips are loopable, so feel free to line up multiple copies of the same clip in your timeline, if you need them to extend further.
This statue loop is only one example of the assets included in this pack.
Tips and Accessible Effects
You can create even more variety with the pack by applying a few effects to the video clips. Use the Hue & Saturation effect on a clip and adjust the Master Hue Dial to quickly change the color palette.

Flip or mirror the footage to change the direction of the movement in the clip. Likewise, you can also Time-Reverse clips to have them loop backwards.
Change the direction of the clip by using the “mirror” and “flip” options.
