Magic & energy
Add lightning and electric arcs to footage
Lightning is timing — a forked bolt and a flash that's gone in a frame, lighting everything blue-white. vfxmagia strikes lightning into your footage with branching bolts, crackling arcs, and a hard flash that briefly illuminates the whole scene. Use it for a storm, a power surge, or energy crackling off a character.
Why it works
What you get
- Strike forked lightning bolts and crackling arcs into your shot.
- Hard bright flashes that briefly light the entire scene.
- Works for storms, power surges, or electric powers on a character.
- Iterate the bolt path and flash intensity cheaply.
How it works
Three steps
- 01Upload the plate that needs lightning (footage mode).
- 02Begin with the Magic / energy burst template and steer it toward electric arcs.
- 03Render, check the bolt timing and flash, then download or refine.
Get started
A prompt to start from
“A branching bolt of lightning strikes down behind the ridge, forked white-blue arcs crackling, a hard bright flash briefly lighting the whole landscape and the figure in the foreground. Cinematic, dramatic.”
FAQ
Questions, answered
- Can I add lightning to a clear-sky shot?
- Yes, though it reads best with a darker or stormy sky; describe the sky so the flash sits believably.
- Can lightning crackle around a character?
- Describe arcs crawling over a person or object for an electric-powers look rather than a sky strike.
- Will the flash light my scene?
- The model briefly illuminates the whole frame with each strike so the lightning feels like a real light event.
