A trained neural network analyzes every frame and estimates a heat map of the scene, separating the subject from the background and responding to heat sources. It is not a gradient map applied to the luminance channel.

Presets and Palettes

Five palettes are included: Inferno, Magma, Ironbow, Rainbow and Arctic. The preset menu covers the common looks, from broadcast thermal cameras to night vision surveillance and inverted cold. A preset sets every parameter in the effect and can be modified afterwards.

Temporal Stability

Estimating each frame in isolation produces flicker and crawl on moving footage. Temporal Stability carries the estimate across frames in three modes, keeping the heat consistent on handheld shots and camera moves.

Lots of settings

Sensor Resolution, Quality, Edge Snap, Texture, Material Response, Levels, Gamma and Blend with Source are all exposed, with the full Sensor Simulation group underneath. Every parameter is animatable.

Heatmap is an AI thermal sensor for After Effects and Premiere Pro. It estimates the heat in ordinary footage and renders it as a thermal image.

Palettes

Twelve palettes map the estimated heat across the full range, and Invert reverses any of them for cold body looks.

Sensor Simulation

Thermal cameras introduce their own artifacts. Sensor Simulation reproduces them with individual controls for Thermal Noise, Fixed Pattern, Blooming, Scan Lines, Scan Line Count and Vignette, so a render can match anything from a handheld unit to a broadcast rig.

Made by and for Motion Designers

Apply Heatmap to a layer and work in the Effect Controls panel. Processing runs locally on your own GPU, with optimized interactivity and caching.
