Motion design primitives
Synthesizable in Remotion · key components of the instinct-launch-remix template.
CinematicTextOverlay
Large, bold sans-serif text fades in and out over a wide, sweeping cinematic background shot, often with a subtle blur or glow effect.
+ Code construction recipe
Use `AbsoluteFill` for background video. Implement `spring()` for `opacity` and `scale` on `Text` components. Apply `filter: 'blur(5px)'` for initial blur, then `transition(0.5s)` to `blur(0px)`.
DynamicPhoneUI
A smartphone screen is shown in a first-person perspective, with rapid, gestural UI interactions like swipes, taps, and content transitions, often composited into a moving, stylized environment.
+ Code construction recipe
Utilize `Sequence` for scene cuts. For UI, use `interpolate()` for `translateX`, `translateY`, and `opacity` to simulate swipes and content changes. Employ `AbsoluteFill` with `Video` for background environment, and `Img` for phone screen content, applying `transform` for perspective.
DataGrowthCounter
Numerical values (views, earnings) animate rapidly upwards, often accompanied by a subtle highlight or pulse effect, to visually represent growth and success.
+ Code construction recipe
Use `spring()` or `interpolate()` on numerical `Text` components for counting animation. Apply `color` or `background-color` changes with `transition()` for highlight effects. Can be combined with `SVG` for simple graph animations.

Objective
Launch a new AI-powered design tool called 'CanvasFlow'.How the recipe adapts
The video would open with a wide shot of a bustling creative studio, overlaid with 'CanvasFlow' and a voiceover discussing the struggle with creative blocks. This transitions into a first-person view of a designer interacting with the CanvasFlow app, rapidly swiping through AI-generated mood boards and design variations in a sleek, futuristic office environment. Data counters would animate '500+ Designs Generated' and '75% Time Saved'. The video would conclude with the tagline 'Unleash Your Creativity' over a vibrant, abstract design animation, followed by 'canvasflow.app'.Remix blueprint · instinct-launch-remix
