Amberlight 2
Amberlight 2 is a real-time video effects and animation plugin for macOS that specializes in light and glow effects. It is designed for use in video editing workflows, motion graphics, and visual effects compositing.

It is aimed at video professionals and creative studios working on broadcast, film and web projects.
AI Recommendation
1 suggestionWe could not find current information about Amberlight 2's Apple Silicon compatibility in the available search results. Because Amberlight 2 is a video effects plugin rather than a standalone app, it depends on a host application (such as Final Cut Pro, Motion, DaVinci Resolve, or Adobe Premiere Pro) to run. Before taking action, contact Escape Motions directly to confirm whether a native Apple Silicon build of the plugin is available or planned. When you contact them, ask specifically whether the plugin is compatible with the native builds of your video editing host. If Amberlight 2 does not ship a native version and remains Intel-only, it will stop working entirely when Apple removes Rosetta 2 in macOS 28 (late 2027) — roughly eighteen months away. In the meantime, you may want to evaluate alternative light and glow effect plugins from vendors with confirmed native Apple Silicon support, such as those available through the Mac App Store or your host application's official plugin marketplace.
