What is Steam Stock Footage?
Steam stock footage is video stock footage of steam or vapors most commonly used for visual effects or film and video editing. Some of the most common use cases include: realistic steam or smoke animations for adding atmosphere or accentuating movement, steam or vapor trails for enhancing sci-fi spacecraft, engines, or machinery, steam overlays for old trains, factories, or industrial scenes, stylized steam or smoke effects for transitions, reveals, or titles.
Drag-and-Drop Simplicity
All of our steam VFX video overlays are offered in 4k ProRes, 4k EXR, and up to 8k R3D. In general, that means that you can simply drag and drop the video into your project; most of the ProRes and EXR files will have alpha transparency built right in. Others will have a black background, and you can choose a screen blending mode to remove the black and get started working.
What’s more, with such high-quality files, you can easily adjust the contrast and color grade of the high-quality files to match the background plate of your own videos.

How to Add Steam Effects in After Effects
If you’re looking to create some steam VFX in After Effects, our transparent steam video overlays are a perfect fit. Just drag and drop them into your composition, and layer them over your background plate. If the background is black, choose “screen” blend mode; otherwise, the built-in alpha transparency will already be active.
Now simply scale and rotate the steam to fit your scene, and you’re all done! If necessary, you can adjust the opacity of the layer to decrease the intensity of the effect.
How to Add Steam in Premiere Pro
Adding a transparent steam overlay in Premiere Pro is just as easy as After Effects. All you need to do is drag and drop the transparent steam video onto your timeline, set the blend mode to screen (if the background is black), adjust the scale, rotation, and opacity if needed, and voila, you’re all set!
