Vizzy is a shader-based music visualizer that creates looping, audio-reactive backgrounds and scenes from customizable templates.
BeatVids is different: BeatVids puts YOUR clips center stage — the beat sync, effects, and cuts happen on your actual footage. Vizzy is for abstract shader art; BeatVids is for music videos that show your brand, your aesthetic, your clips.
