How to share effects with the community
On Backstage we have a specific category for this, called Scene > Endpless Plates.
It’s part of the Scene categories which allow our community members to share their content.
So what do you need to do?
- Upload your creations here: Endpless Plates - Polyend Backstage
- Ideally you share the functionality / how it works.
- If you want to be super fancy, upload some sound examples to!
If you are looking for an example on how to structure your post. Have a look at this example.
Keep in mind that all uploads will need to be approved by our community moderators.
So thank you in advance for your patience

How to create your own effects
Polyend Endless allows technical as well as non-technical users to create effects:
- You can use the Polyend Playground. An AI assisted system that will generate effects based on your input/prompts.
- You can code your own effects. To get you started we’ve created a comprehensive setup guide to get you up and running quickly.
How to design your own plates / graphics
We have a couple resources to help you create graphics as well as your own plates.
Creating Plate graphics
We’ve prepared two Affinity 3 templates for you.
Think of Affinity as a combination of Photoshop, Illustrator and In-Design, all in one package.
It’s free to use and pretty powerful.
Affinity is free and available for Windows and Mac. If you are on Linux: yes you can run it too.
