Motion design primitives
Synthesizable in Remotion · key components of the ai-speed-frontier-reveal template.
AsciiMaskGrid
Dynamic alphanumeric character grid revealing underlying image plates.
+ Code construction recipe
Generate a grid of random monospaced characters in Remotion; map opacity and scale via interpolate based on frame count.
LogScatterChart
Grid axes animate with data points plotting sequentially with expanding highlight dots.
+ Code construction recipe
Use SVG lines for grid and circles positioned via log scales, triggered by spring animations.
OrbitalRadarRing
Concentric dashed circles and radiating lines pulsing outward around core text.
+ Code construction recipe
Render SVG circle elements with strokeDasharray and interpolate strokeDashoffset and rotation over time.
