Redefining Video Editing with Creative Tools and Transitions
Welcome to Film Impact, where creativity meets technology to bring your video editing experience to new heights. Founded by Jaap H. Boerhof in 2010, Film Impact has been at the forefront of delivering premium video plugins and transitions for Adobe Premiere Pro.
Our Story
Inspiring Creativity, One Frame at a Time
Our journey began when Jaap, a self-employed video editor with years of expertise, realized the need for innovative solutions that could enhance the video editing process. In 2010, he introduced the groundbreaking Impact Push plugin, revolutionizing the way transitions were applied. This marked the beginning of a series of innovations as he continuously pushed the boundaries of video editing.
Two years later, we launched Transition Pack 1, captivating editors with a versatile collection of video transitions. The positive response encouraged us to expand our offerings, and we soon released Transition Pack 2, Transition Pack 3, and Transition Pack 4, each pack pushing the creative possibilities even further.
Today, our impact is felt worldwide as filmmakers, editors, and content creators rely on Film Impact's broad range of creative tools and transitions. We pride ourselves on building premium video plugins that combine technical knowledge with a creative mindset. Our goal is to create professional video editing tools that are easy to use, versatile, and stable, empowering you to bring your vision to life.
