Find the Free Smoke FX pack on the CinePacks website. This is a free pack, so all you have to do is provide us with your email address so we can send you the download link. Once you receive the link in your inbox, download and unzip the folder of free video effects and transitions. This free pack includes 28 unique smoke overlays shot in 2K quality. Drag all of these video effects into Adobe Premiere Pro.
Once all your video effects have been imported into Adobe Premiere Pro, drag your chosen smoke effect into your timeline above your footage and change blend mode to “Screen” (“Lighten” or “Linear Dodge Add” also works). Right click the smoke effect and select “Scale to Frame Size” if needed.
To customize the Smoke FX assets to your liking, you can scale and position the video effect as desired. Layer multiple smoke video effects together to create a much different look. You can even alter the colors of the Smoke FX by using Color Balance HLS (under Video Effects → Color Correction) and adjusting the color settings.
Create a mask if needed (using a good amount of feather) if you want to remove parts of the smoke effect or want to make it look more cohesive and realistic.
