Artlist Templates vs MotionVFX

Artlist Templates is a catalog of customizable project files for video-editing software. Designs cover titles, lower thirds, transitions, slideshows and more, with animations, text placeholders and effects. Templates are available for Adobe After Effects, Adobe Premiere Pro, Final Cut Pro and DaVinci Resolve, and are intended for professional desktop software rather than mobile editing apps. Users can preview templates, choose a software version to download, save items to Favorites or Artboards, and share them. Downloads arrive in ZIP folders with the project file, font links and help materials. Video templates are included in Footage and Templates and Artlist Max subscriptions. Footage and Templates costs $31.99 a year, billed 31.99 / month (billed annually), and includes a Pro license for commercial and client work. That plan does not include AI tools; Artlist Max is required for those. Free accounts can browse the catalog but cannot preview templates. Trial downloads are for preview only and are not licensed for published projects.

MotionVFX offers motion design elements, video effects, and software tools for video editors. Its listed capabilities include motion graphics, tracking, rotoscoping, automated captions, cinematic grading, and video upscaling. The mExtension app lets Final Cut Pro users browse, download, and apply elements inside the editor, including a free collection of overlays, effects, transitions, typography, and add-ons. mCaptionsAI lists 86 caption styles and support for 90+ languages. The homepage says mUpscalerAI can upscale video to 1080p, 4K, and up to 8K without cloud dependency. Product support spans Final Cut Pro, DaVinci Resolve, Adobe Premiere Pro, and After Effects, with some Resolve and Premiere products available for macOS or Windows. A plugin is required. MotionVFX lists a free plan, paid options from $39/mo, and a 14-day trial. mExtension requires macOS Ventura 13.6.9 and Final Cut Pro 10.6.5; Apple silicon Macs are recommended. Some older FxPlug3-based products will not be updated further.
