Electric
Strike with intention.
Strike with intention.
Watch the Video
Turn on Auto Animate. Watch the shape evolve, flicker, and breathe. No rigging. No expressions. Just motion.
Position, rotate, and translate in X, Y, and Z. Fly a virtual camera around your bolt. Electric understands depth because it was built in three dimensions from the first line of code.
Send pulses of light traveling down the length of any bolt. Stagger them. Trail them. Use Cascade mode to make a structure feel alive with sequential energy.
The fork system produces child branches that inherit the character of their parent — with their own chaos, their own width, their own length. The result feels organic because it is organic.
Every shape is born from an algorithm, not a texture. Electric is a procedural lightning and energy generator for Final Cut Pro and Motion. Thirty-eight shapes. Infinite variations. Rendered in real time on Metal.

After
Arc Chain A sequence of waypoints connected by arcing bolt segments.
Bolt A classic point-to-point strike with optional spreading sub-bolts.
Cage A full sphere wireframe of latitude and longitude lines.
Helix A single spiral wrapped around an axis.
Surface Bolts that crawl across the surface of an invisible sphere.
Tree Recursive branching, built like a procedural tree.
Metal-accelerated rendering. 4x MSAA anti-aliasing. A cached pipeline that survives long sessions and long clips. Double-precision geometry. A protected XPC service that keeps your host application stable no matter how complex the scene. Electric is engineered to disappear — so the work can come forward.
Before
After
A multi-pass Gaussian bloom, with optional chromatic aberration, gives every bolt a soft photonic halo that reads correctly against dark skies and bright titles alike.
