These elements are easily customizable.
This package comes in two formats: 2K and 8K.
The 2K version includes:
A folder named “After Effects Files Full HD” – containing AEP files compatible with After Effects.
A folder named “Full HD MP4” – containing MP4 files compatible with any software or device that supports MP4.
The 8K version includes:
A folder named “8K” – containing high-resolution MP4 files, also compatible with all MP4-supported software and devices.
Installation Method
The REDUX Sci-Fi HUD package includes two main folders: one is designed for After Effects, and the other contains prerendered items.
The After Effects folder includes AEP files along with MP4 preview files to help you easily see what each element looks like before using it.
You can import the AEP files directly into After Effects. For a more organized and efficient workflow, we recommend using the Motion Factory File Manager extension. It lets you manage all assets in one place and provides quick access to previews of each item.
1. Install the Motion Factory File Manager by reading
this Article.
2. Please unzip the file you have downloaded.
After opening the “REDUX Sci-Fi HUD” package (based on the version you’ve downloaded — 2K or 8K), you’ll find the following folders:
2K Version:
Full HD MP4 – Compatible with all software that supports MP4.
After Effects Files Full HD – Contains AEP files compatible with After Effects.
8K Version:
8K – Contains high-resolution MP4 files compatible with all software that supports MP4.
*All versions are compatible with the Motion Factory File Manager for a more organized workflow and quick preview access.
3. Open AE.
4. Navigate to the Window >> Extensions >> Motion Factory
5. If you already have an account login into it or create and verify your account.
6. Now as you’re in the Motion Factory panel press the “Import” button.
7. There you can import one of the Redux items that you want by choosing the “Import File” button or you can import the whole package ( Full HD MP4 and After Effects Files Full HD and 8K ) by choosing the “Import Folder” button.
8. After you import the package, you can see it from the Motion Factory panel.
Also, you can import the “After Effects Files Full HD” folder directly into the AE and import the “8K” and “Full HD MP4” folders directly into any software which you want without using Motion Factory.
But if you use Motion Factory you can access the settings easily.
