HorizonX Textures: Turn Images and Videos into Visual Effects

New Textures

Turn images and videos into expressive textures.

A photograph becomes a field of characters, a scene takes on the glow of a CRT screen, light turns into halftone ink or iridescent foil. Start with a look, bring your own media and tune it live in the browser.

How it works

From source to texture, in four steps.

  1. 01

    Pick a look

    Start with a ready-made look from the collection. Each one opens in its own editor with a working composition.

  2. 02

    Make it yours

    Replace the demo with your image or video. See how the texture responds to your subject, light and movement.

  3. 03

    Shape the result

    Adjust the controls for that effect: characters, grid, tone, color, glow or motion. Watch the preview change as you edit.

  4. 04

    Take it with you

    Open Export and choose from the formats available for your look and source. Adjust the output size and, for motion, the frame rate.

What you take with you

An export that fits the effect.

Available formats depend on the effect, source and animation settings; the Export panel shows your options.

Stills

PNG / JPEG

Still images export as PNG or JPEG, at the output size you choose.

Motion

MP4 / PNG seq.

Video sources and supported animated looks offer MP4 or a PNG sequence, at the frame rate you set.

Web

WEB PACK

Bundles the assets a website needs to show the texture.

Vector & text

SVG / TXT

Some effects also offer SVG, and ASCII can export plain text.

Try it in your browser. Export with a membership.

Anyone can open and edit a texture. Exporting is included with every HorizonX membership, within an allowance that grows with your plan, and it never uses your download limits.

What you can create

A new finish for your next idea.

01

A different kind of background

Give a website hero, presentation or digital canvas a visual texture of its own.

02

Artwork with character

Turn a photograph into a typographic study, a warm print or an iridescent surface for your next graphic composition.

03

Motion worth watching

Bring footage into the editor and explore how an effect reacts over time. Export the supported motion format for your next visual piece.
