About Zoetrope PATTR
Zoetrope PATTR provides a seamless pattern generator, a luma mask effect, and an alpha‑channel transition for Adobe After Effects and Premiere Pro. The library contains more than 120 tiling patterns that can be applied as a background generator, mask or transition by adding the component to a timeline and selecting a style. The plugin runs inside Noise Industries FxFactory, which is a free host platform; a paid FxFactory Pro edition exists with identical system requirements. The same effects are available in Apple Final Cut Pro and Motion, keeping the workflow consistent across supported hosts. System requirements and a demo video are listed on the FxFactory product page.
