What It Does
FoldCraft takes flat media, whether that’s a title, a logo, a masked graphic, or keyed footage, and animates it as if it were folding paper. The result is layered origami-style motion with real depth: folds occlude each other, panels flip, and layers overlap in a way that looks physically grounded rather than like a flat dissolve or slide transition.
It works inside both After Effects and Premiere Pro, and ships with four input modes to cover different source types.
Key Features
Four input modes. Standard mode handles regular media for title packages and product shots. Alpha Channel mode (two variants) uses transparency data to define fold boundaries for logos, cutout graphics, and animated icons. Green Screen mode brings keyed subjects into the fold, so a person or object can unfold from the frame. Text mode targets typography directly, turning titles into folded openers and social covers.
Layered folding motion system. Rather than applying a single effect, FoldCraft slices your source into movable panels and stacks them so occlusion, flips, and overlaps behave like real paper. The depth reads as three-dimensional even in a flat comp.
Texture and detail controls. Adjustments for texture, borders, blending, jitter, and timing let you dial between a clean graphic look and a rougher, handmade paper feel.
Free trial available. A trial download is available on the aescripts product page before purchase.
Who It’s For
Motion designers building title sequences, logo reveals, and social content will get the most out of FoldCraft. The green screen mode makes it useful for editors working with talking-head footage who want a more distinctive entry or exit than a standard transition. The text and alpha modes are well suited to brand-forward work where a client wants something that stands apart from common slide or fade animations.
