VFX Breakdown from The Great Family by Gus Krieger.

Show Your Work.

This preset for Adobe After Effects creates a simple linear wipe with a configurable line demarking the transition. I created it to automate the process of creating VFX breakdown videos like this one.

You can control the width and color of the line, the duration of the wipe, and the direction.

The wipe automatically happens at the start of the After Effects layer, so you can experiment with different timings easily, without worrying about sliding keyframes around.
