This plugin will use a “UV pass” (or ST map) rendered from your 3D package to directly re-texture your objects in After Effects.

This plugin quickly and easily adds a customizable vignette to your footage or comp.

This plugin generates a ring as a texture for shockwaves, etc for visual effects. It has enough options to be fairly flexible, but not so much as to be overbearing.

This plugin will create seamlessly-tileable textures for other plugins which require them like CC Sphere, CC Cylinder, Polar Coordinates, etc. or any 3D program. It works by creating a copy of the texture offset by 50%, and smoothly interpolating between the offset and the original texture.

This plugin replaces textures by using a UV map.
