Motion design primitives
Synthesizable in Remotion · key components of the ai-creative-os-launch template.
DynamicUIPopup
UI elements (like chat bubbles, file cards, or process indicators) animate into view with a subtle bounce or spring effect, often accompanied by a soft glow or shadow.
+ Code construction recipe
Use `spring()` for position and scale, `interpolate()` for opacity. Apply `box-shadow` with `filter: drop-shadow()` for glow. SVG paths for speech bubbles.
GridContentReveal
A grid of content cards or process steps animates into view, often with a staggered delay, revealing complex workflows or multiple outputs.
+ Code construction recipe
Map over an array of data, applying `delayRender()` and `spring()` to each item's `x`, `y`, and `opacity` based on its index. Use `GridLayout` component for arrangement.
InteractiveCursorHighlight
A glowing, animated cursor or pointer highlights specific UI elements, simulating user interaction and guiding the viewer's eye.
+ Code construction recipe
Animate an SVG cursor path using `interpolate()` for position. Apply a `radial-gradient` or `filter: drop-shadow()` for the glow effect, with `opacity` and `scale` variations.

Objective
Launch a new AI-powered design tool that generates marketing collateral from text prompts.How the recipe adapts
The DynamicUIPopup primitive would be used for chat bubbles where users input prompts and for displaying generated design options. The GridContentReveal would showcase multiple marketing collateral variations (e.g., social media ads, banners, email headers) being generated simultaneously. The InteractiveCursorHighlight would guide viewers through the prompt input and selection process within the PixelFlow interface. The founder would explain the AI's capabilities in a similar modern office setting, maintaining the energetic pacing and clean aesthetic.Remix blueprint · ai-creative-os-launch
