High-fashion, music video, and street-culture visual effects toolkit for Adobe After Effects. Combines thermal heatmaps, bass-reactive camera shakes, analog CRT emulation, halation, and one-click aesthetic style recipes into a responsive dark-mode panel.
Features • Installation • FX Catalog • Architecture • One-Click Presets
MILLY FX PRO was engineered for high-cadence video editors, motion designers, and music video creators who need immediate access to stylized visual treatments without manually stacking and dialing 5+ native effects on every clip.
It is delivered as a dual-architecture package:
- CEP Extension Panel: Modern HTML5/CSS3 dark glassmorphic interface with real-time composition connection status (
Window → Extensions → MILLY FX PRO). - Standalone ScriptUI Panel (
MillyFXPro.jsx): Zero-install lightweight native panel drop-in for fast deployment without debug-mode flags (Window → MillyFXPro.jsx).

- ⚡ One-Click Procedural Stacking: Automatically generates and configures compound effect chains (Turbulent Displace, Colorama, Optics Compensation, Find Edges, Curves) with mathematically tuned expressions.
- 🌡️ FLIR Thermal & Heatmap Suite: Procedural FLIR camera emulation and custom LUT grading mapped to dynamic luminance curves.
- 🎛️ Bass & Impact Camera Shakes: Wiggle-expression driven micro-shakes and impact zooms designed for hip-hop and electronic music 808 transients.
- 🎞️ Analog & Industrial Lo-Fi Textures: 35mm film grain, Trinitron CRT scanline simulation, halation edge bleeding, and paper stop-motion borders.
- 🧹 Non-Destructive Management: Includes
[MILLY]namespace tagging for all applied properties with one-click cleanup (CLEAR MILLY FX) preserving existing layer hierarchy.
