About
EffectCraft is a node-based visual-effects (VFX) and motion-graphics application for creating procedural effects and compositing work. Artists can connect effect nodes, arrange layers, adjust parameters, and preview output in a graph editor. The application supports 2D compositing and motion-graphics workflows, with timeline and keyframe controls, reusable effects and templates, and project rendering and export. EffectCraft offers a browser build as well as downloadable desktop builds for Windows, macOS, and Linux; its processing is designed to run on the user's machine rather than through a hosted rendering service. It is aimed at independent creators, motion designers, video editors, and VFX artists exploring node-based workflows. A JSON control interface and Model Context Protocol (MCP) server enable compatible tools to interact with the application. The project is described as alpha-stage software, so features and workflows may change between releases.

About
PaperAnimationLab is a browser-based animation tool for making short videos and GIFs with a handmade paper look. It provides effects for searching and animating newspaper text, crumpling and unfolding paper, revealing cutout edges, adding line wobble and paper grain, and creating origami-style transitions. Users can arrange effects on a timeline, preview changes in the browser, and export finished animations for use in video projects. The product is aimed at video editors, motion designers, animators, and content creators who want paper-inspired motion without building each effect from scratch. Its workflow centers on editable motion effects and visual controls, supporting experiments with collage, editorial graphics, title treatments, and other short-form animation. The site describes the tool as free to use and presents it as a web experience, so users can work in a browser rather than install a desktop editor.
