Particles Video Overlay
An editor can’t imagine editing a video with a summer vibe without particle overlays! There are so many free overlays available out there, but we’ve chosen two that were the most to our liking. Particles can be simple white, or shiny, or even black – though, you can make any of them black using Difference Blend Mode!
