What It Does
Coco Color Wheel adds an interactive color wheel directly inside After Effects for building color palettes. It supports standard color harmony formulas including monochromatic, analogous, complementary, triadic, and tetradic schemes. The tool helps you select colors that work together visually, rather than guessing or manually calculating relationships.
Key Features
Color harmony formulas. Choose from five different schemes to generate palettes that follow established color theory principles.
One-click application. Apply selected colors instantly or import them as a complete palette for use across your project.
Coco library integration. Save favorite palettes directly to the Coco library with a single click, making them accessible in Coco Color CoWorker if you use that tool.
The plugin works as a standalone free tool but integrates with Coco Color CoWorker (a separate $49.99 product) for expanded palette management.
Who It’s For
Useful for motion designers who need consistent color schemes across multiple compositions, or anyone working on branded projects where palette adherence matters. If you regularly reference style guides or mood boards, having a color wheel embedded in After Effects saves switching between applications.
Pricing
This is a pay-what-you-want model, meaning individual users can download it for free or choose to contribute any amount. The listing shows $0.00 as the suggested price. Businesses and teams are expected to pay the suggested price for a valid license, but for most freelancers and solo creators, this functions as a free tool.
