Liquid metaball text morph. Each color melts into the next.
Spotlight turns your color palette into a liquid reveal. Each color takes over the full screen while the color name melts apart into organic blobs and reforms into the next.
The effect is built with Gaussian Blur and Levels on the alpha channel. No plugins, no expressions to manage. Just swap your colors and render.
Three orientations included:
Landscape (16:9) for presentations and portfolios
Vertical (9:16) for Reels and TikTok
Portrait (4:5) for Instagram feed.
What's inside:
Spotlight.aep project file
Color Controls comp with 10 editable swatches
Auto-displayed hex codes
Quick-Start Guide PDF
Commercial license included
Render
16x9 (1920x1080)
9x16 (1080x1920)
4x5 (1080x1350)
Change the font to anything you want bold condensed fonts like Anton, Bebas Neue, or Impact give the best blob separation. Thin fonts still work but the metaball effect is more subtle.
Works with After Effects CC 2020 and later. No plugins required.
