Synthesizable in Remotion · key components of the magica-ai-agent-launch template.

CircularImageGridReveal

Multiple rounded-rectangle image cards appear and rotate into a circular formation around a central text element, then expand outwards or zoom in.

+ Code construction recipe

Use `spring` for initial position and rotation. Interpolate `scale` and `opacity` for reveal. Implement `map` over an array of image data to position each card with calculated `transform` properties (e.g., `rotateZ`, `translateX`, `translateY`).

GlowingTextImpact

Bold, sans-serif text appears with a strong, pulsating glow effect, often synchronized with an audio beat or impact.

+ Code construction recipe

Apply a `text-shadow` or `filter: drop-shadow()` CSS property. Animate the `color` and `blur` radius of the shadow using `interpolate` or `spring` to create the pulsating glow. Synchronize animation with `AbsoluteFill` and `useCurrentFrame`.

BulletPointHighlight

A bulleted list animates, with a glowing dot moving down the list to highlight each item, while a corresponding video clip plays on the side.

+ Code construction recipe

Use `Sequence` to control timing for each bullet point. Animate the `translateY` of a small circular `div` (the glowing dot) to move between list items. Use `spring` for smooth dot movement. Conditionally render or `opacity` animate the corresponding video component based on the active bullet point.
