Shutter

Shutter, at aescripts.com, is an AI motion blur effect for Adobe Premiere Pro, made by Arc Engine Tools and sold through aescripts + aeplugins. It generates motion blur on footage and graphics from inside Premiere.

It is a native Premiere effect that you drop on a clip from the Effects panel. In AI Motion mode it computes a motion vector for every pixel in every frame on the GPU, refined over multiple passes, and applies blur that matches, with more on fast movement and none on what is standing still. Arc Engine Tools describes the result as a 180 degree shutter look restored to high-shutter or jittery footage such as action camera, FPV, timelapse and speed-ramped clips.

There are four modes. AI Motion is for complex footage, and Zoom, Linear and Spin are for graphics, transitions and stylized looks. Every mode has manual controls or can be left on auto. Flow Smoothing evens out the measured motion, Keep Subject Sharp holds what the camera is tracking crisp while the world around it blurs, and Zoom Boost scales the radial blur in Zoom mode.

Shutter needs Premiere 2025 or later with GPU acceleration on, and Software Only rendering is not supported. On Mac it needs macOS 14 or later on Apple silicon. On Windows it needs Windows 10 or 11, 64-bit, and an NVIDIA GPU with CUDA, GTX 10-series or newer, with 6 GB of VRAM for 1080p and 8 GB or more recommended for 4K. AMD and Intel GPUs are not supported yet. The page also lists 16 GB of RAM.

Arc Engine Tools says the effect slows timeline playback and suggests setting the look on a short preview range, then rendering in to out. It installs with the aescripts + aeplugins manager app. The first version on aescripts, 4.7.1, was released on November 12, 2026.

Pricing: Shutter is listed at $45.00 on aescripts, with a special price of $33.99 until November 14, 2026. The free trial has every feature and adds a watermark to the render until you activate a license. Checked November 12, 2026 at https://aescripts.com/shutter/.
