Stretch is a powerful and intuitive After Effects plugin designed to give motion designers complete creative control over directional distortion and pixel manipulation. Built for artists who want more than standard warp tools, Stretch allows you to bend, pull, elongate, and reshape imagery along custom mask paths with precision and fluidity. Whether you’re crafting high-energy title sequences, abstract transitions, stylized typography, or experimental visuals, Stretch transforms ordinary layers into dynamic, flowing compositions.

At its core, Stretch works by using two mask paths to define the direction and behavior of distortion. This dual-mask system gives you granular control over how pixels stretch across or along a surface, making it easy to create organic motion, elastic deformations, or sharp graphic pulls. The result is a clean, controllable effect that feels both natural and visually striking.
The plugin features advanced ramp controls, allowing you to fine-tune the intensity and falloff of the stretch effect. You can smoothly blend distortion across a layer or create dramatic contrast between compressed and elongated areas. Built-in animation tools make it simple to generate seamless looping motion, perfect for backgrounds, motion branding systems, and social media content.
