Big Impact earns its place in the toolfarm library as a broad set of pre-rendered destruction effects that drop into almost any editor. With over 200 assets spanning explosions, meteors and shockwaves in 4K, plus alpha channel and luma matte options, it suits editors who want ready-made large-scale VFX rather than rendering them from scratch.
AEJuice Big Impact is a pack of over 200 pre-rendered large impact effects built for After Effects, Cinema 4D, DaVinci Resolve, Premiere Pro and any other video editor. The library covers nuclear and atomic bomb explosions, big bangs, meteors and asteroids, shock waves, airwaves, dust impact and disintegrating buildings, all in 4K at 24 frames per second.
The assets come as footage rather than software-specific plugins. Each is delivered in two AVI formats carrying an alpha channel, alongside an H264 version with a separate alpha channel, and luma matte support helps with compositing. Some clips are split into A and B parts, where A is the front and B is the back, so you can place an object such as a meteorite between the two elements.
The pack works for movies, CGI, music videos and TV shows, and it runs on Windows 10 or higher and Mac OS X 10.14 or higher, including M1 and M2 systems. A demo video is available.
AEJuice Big Impact is best for movies, CGI, music videos and TV shows that need large-scale destruction effects such as explosions, meteors and shockwaves.
AEJuice Big Impact is completely free to download and use.
AEJuice Big Impact ships as pre-rendered videos with a transparent or black background, so it works with Cinema 4D, DaVinci Resolve, Final Cut, Nuke, Open Broadcaster Software, Pinnacle Studio, Premiere Rush, Sony Vegas, XSplit and any other video-editing software. Because the effects come as footage rather than software-specific plugins, you composite them using the included alpha channel or luma matte. That coverage spans most common editing and compositing applications the developer lists.
AEJuice Big Impact runs on Windows 10 or higher and Mac OS X 10.14 or higher, including Apple M1 and M2 machines. Since the pack is a collection of pre-rendered video assets rather than a plugin tied to one host, the practical requirement is a system and editor that can import video with an alpha channel or handle a luma matte. Check the developer's page for any additional details before downloading.
AEJuice Big Impact provides its destruction assets in 4K quality at 24 frames per second. The pack includes over 200 high-quality clips such as shock waves, big bangs, atomic bomb explosions, asteroids and meteors, disintegrating buildings, airwaves and dust impact. Some assets are split into two parts, an A front and a B back, so you can place an object like a meteorite between them. Each clip carries an alpha channel or supports a luma matte for compositing.
AEJuice Big Impact comes in two AVI file formats that contain an alpha channel, plus an H264 version with a separate alpha channel. That combination lets you composite the effects over your own footage in editors that read alpha directly or that rely on a luma matte. Assets split into A and B parts let you layer a subject, such as a meteorite, between the front and back elements. All files are 4K at 24 frames per second.
AEJuice Big Impact is listed as free in this catalog, though licensing and any promotional terms can change over time. For the current terms, the full list of included elements and download details, head to the developer's page. The pack itself contains over 200 pre-rendered destruction assets in 4K at 24 frames per second, delivered as AVI files with an alpha channel and an H264 version with a separate alpha channel that work across many video editors.
