proGradient is an animated gradient plugin for Adobe After Effects developed by irrealix. It provides flexible tools for creating, controlling and animating multi-color gradients, from classic color transitions to complex procedural effects.

Originally developed from freeGradient, proGradient introduces advanced gradient modes, layer-based color sampling and modern color interpolation methods for motion graphics and visual design.

KEY FEATURES

• Linear, Radial & Angular – create classic linear, radial and angular gradients.
• Magnet – generate gradients based on simulated magnetic field lines.
• Contour – distribute colors along shape boundaries, masks and text.
• Mask Path – create gradients that follow custom Bezier paths.
• Stripes – divide gradients into adjustable bands with randomized offsets.
• Gradient from Layer – extract gradient colors from images, videos or pre-compositions.
• OKLAB & HCL – advanced color interpolation for smooth or vibrant transitions.
• Gradient Animation – animate colors using Shift, Scale, Loop, Mirror and Invert controls.
• Randomize Colors – generate new color combinations while preserving gradient structure.
• Opacity Ramp – control transparency across the gradient.

IDEAL FOR

• Animated gradient backgrounds and abstract visuals.
• Motion graphics, music videos and visual effects.
• Typography, title sequences and interface animations.
• Procedural textures and complex color animations.

COMPATIBILITY

• Software: Adobe After Effects.
• Operating systems: Windows and macOS.
• Supports 32-bit color processing and Multi-Frame Rendering.
