Motion design primitives
Synthesizable in Remotion · key components of the developer-cli-workflow template.
ParticleSineWaveField
Layered horizontal stippled dot fields flowing continuously across the dark canvas.
+ Code construction recipe
Use HTML5 Canvas inside a Remotion component. Render points calculated via sine and cosine waves offset by frame count.
ConsoleStepContainer
Dark translucent card hosting a 4-tab workflow with step state switching.
+ Code construction recipe
Wrap views in an AbsoluteFill container with rounded corners and border stroke, controlling active step index by frame intervals.
TallyBlockBar
Segmented grid filling up block by block with a dynamic counter.
+ Code construction recipe
Map over an array of slots and conditionally fill color based on interpolate(frame, [0, targetFrame], [0, totalBlocks]).
