The Horizontal blur effect applies a blur in the horizontal direction only. This creates a motion-like blur effect that stretches pixels horizontally while preserving vertical details.

This effect is often used to:

  • Create motion streaks or speed effects
  • Simulate camera movement
  • Act as the first pass of a two-pass blur setup
  • Create stylistic directional blur effects
