Motion design primitives
Synthesizable in Remotion · key components of the dynamic-browser-showcase template.
SimulatedCursorInteraction
A realistic mouse cursor moves across the screen, hovering over and clicking UI elements, triggering state changes and content reveals. The cursor's path is smooth and deliberate.
+ Code construction recipe
Use `interpolate` for cursor position (x, y) over time, with `spring` for click animations. Implement conditional rendering or CSS class toggles for UI element states (e.g., `:hover`, `:active`).
DynamicBrowserPerspective
The browser window is presented at a slight angle, with subtle camera pans, zooms, and rotations that follow the user's interaction, creating a sense of depth and engagement.
+ Code construction recipe
Apply CSS `transform` properties (rotateX, rotateY, perspective, scale) to the browser container. Animate these properties using `interpolate` with `ease-in-out` curves for smooth transitions between perspectives.
FastCutContentReveal
Content is revealed through rapid scene cuts and quick camera movements, often accompanied by a strong motion blur effect, creating a high-energy, dynamic transition.
+ Code construction recipe
Utilize `Sequence` and `AbsoluteFill` for scene management. Implement `spring` or `interpolate` with very short durations for `opacity`, `scale`, and `translate` on incoming elements. Apply a `motionBlur` effect via SVG filters or canvas for rapid transitions.

Objective
Launch video for 'CanvasAI', an AI-powered graphic design tool.How the recipe adapts
The video would open with a simulated cursor interacting with CanvasAI's interface, demonstrating the AI generating a logo from a text prompt. This would transition to a rapid sequence of the AI applying different styles to an image, then a quick pan across a dashboard showing integrations with popular design software. The final shot would highlight the 'Generate' button and a tagline like 'Design at the Speed of Thought'.Remix blueprint · dynamic-browser-showcase
