This video is very creative and wonderful. The fireworks , christmas tree’s decoration and forest environment are superb. The Lightning Christmas Tree in the winter forest is the Best idea.
Hello ! what a wonderful Christmas Spirit starting on envato ! Really like this creative idea !
For Videohive After Effects Projects I chose this corporate opener :
This project reflects Christmas Spirit in a wonderful way and is very useful for
business and corporate projects. I like the fluid motion, the simplicity, the colors,
the design and the way it all forms the Christmas Tree and the logo reveal… nice work !
For stock footage I humbly choose one of my items :
It took my wife hard work to decorate this Christmas Tree, and it is one of
few footage that shows the nativity story through the grotto where Jesus was
born. I also like the quality and the colors and proud of it !
Ho ho ho! Christmas is coming soon! So i want to wish you happy Cristmas!)) I really liked making Christmas projects last year :^) And I’m going to continue my series of funny Christmas congratulations with my cheerful Santa.
Santa is a positive, happy and a little bit crazy))) I think it shows the spirit of Christmas with a great BIG love)))
One project from this series:
Stock footage i like is the pack of shining elements. It’s very useful footages. When i look these warm video-elements, i feel warm in my soul)))

For Stock Footage I chose this item :

My favorite AE Christmas template is Christmas Pop-Up Book by The_Yoshivara
It’s a very original work with great idea and great 3D animation. Very impressive work with perfect visual look. One of the “Christmas” bestseller.
I really enjoy this time of year and making Christmas greetings templates, so first of all thank you for this opportunity to get featured on Videohive.
For the After Effects template I want to nominate this one:
I think that particle animation (magic) in this template is nicely done, with beautiful ambience, smooth camera movement and with a little cinematic touch. It represents the magical spirit of Christmas in a very nice way and it can be very useful and easy to edit Christmas Greeting video card.
For the Stock Footage:
After checking a really lot of them, this one really stand out by my opinion. Cool idea and very well executed stop motion shot with nice details.
