Backgrounds 2 earns its spot in the aescripts library as a fully new set that coexists with the original Backgrounds pack rather than replacing it. Worth knowing it has been discontinued, with Mister Horse now offering its products through a single subscription plan, so check current terms before relying on it.
Backgrounds 2 is a pack of backgrounds from Mister Horse for After Effects and Premiere Pro. All of the backgrounds are new and created from scratch. If you already own the previous version of Backgrounds, installing this one will not override it, so you can keep and use both packs side by side.
In Premiere Pro, the pack works with Mister Horse's free Premiere Composer plugin, which places the backgrounds into your sequence as MOGRTs. It is compatible with After Effects 2022 and 2021, and with Premiere Pro 2022, 2021 and 2020.
The product has been discontinued; Mister Horse now offers all of its products through a single subscription plan. In this catalog it is listed as free, so check the developer's page for current licensing. A demo video is available.
Backgrounds 2 is best for editors and motion designers working in After Effects or Premiere Pro who want a pack of backgrounds, using Premiere Composer for the Premiere Pro workflow.
Backgrounds 2 is completely free to download and use.
Backgrounds 2 is compatible with After Effects 2022 and 2021, and with Premiere Pro 2022, 2021 and 2020. If you run one of those releases, the pack is built to work with your host application. Compatibility with other versions is not stated here, so it is worth confirming against your specific version before installing. The developer's page is the best place to check for any additional version details or updates to supported releases.
Backgrounds 2 works in Premiere Pro through Mister Horse's free Premiere Composer plugin. With Premiere Composer installed, the backgrounds are placed into your sequence as MOGRTs, so it is the plugin that handles adding them in Premiere Pro. In After Effects, the pack is listed as compatible with 2022 and 2021. Check the developer's page for installation guidance and the current Premiere Composer download.
Backgrounds 2 will not override the previous version of Backgrounds if you already own it. Installing this pack leaves the earlier one in place, so you can keep both and use them together. Because all of its backgrounds are new and created from scratch, the two packs give you separate sets rather than duplicates. If you own the original, there is no need to uninstall it before adding this version.
