What It Does

Smart Resize lets you create motion graphics that adapt to different aspect ratios without rebuilding comps. Instead of manually repositioning layers for square Instagram posts, vertical stories, or widescreen formats, you define anchor points and special positioning rules, then let the script handle resizing automatically.

Key Features

Anchor-based control. Place anchor points on layers, then adjust their position and size for specific aspect ratios through effect controls. The script uses these rules to reformat your comp when dimensions change.

Simple interface. The panel has three buttons and resizes to fit your workspace. No complex menus or hidden options.

Background placement tool. Includes a “Place” feature for managing backgrounds across different formats.

Who It’s For

Useful for motion designers creating content for multiple social platforms or anyone who needs to deliver the same animation in several aspect ratios. Common with title cards, lower thirds, and social media templates.

Pricing

Smart Resize costs $14 for a single-user license. A floating server license for teams is also available. Includes a trial version.
