Synthesizable in Remotion · key components of the dynamic-ai-avatar-launch template.

DynamicTextReveal

Text appears with a quick, impactful fade-in and slight scale-up, often accompanied by a sound effect. It can be used for single words or short phrases.

+ Code construction recipe

Use `spring` for `opacity` and `scale` properties. Interpolate `from: 0` to `to: 1` for both. Apply a short duration and a high damping ratio for a snappy effect. Coordinate with audio cues.

MultiSceneMontage

Rapid succession of short video clips or images, showcasing diverse scenarios or features. Each clip is typically 1-2 seconds long, creating a high-energy visual flow.

+ Code construction recipe

Implement a sequence of `Video` or `Img` components within a `Sequence`. Use `AbsoluteFill` for each scene. Control timing precisely with `durationInFrames` and `from` props. Ensure smooth, hard cuts between scenes.

UIPointerInteraction

A mouse cursor animates across the screen, clicking on specific UI elements, highlighting them, and triggering subsequent interface changes or content reveals.

+ Code construction recipe

Utilize `interpolate` for `x` and `y` coordinates of a custom cursor SVG or image. Use `spring` for `scale` on click events to simulate button presses. Overlay this animation on top of screen recordings or mockups.
