Synthesizable in Remotion · key components of the openai-devday-launch-remix template.
EmoticonSwarm
Multiple colored circles, each containing a simple character (like *, >, +, o, ^), appear, scale, and move across the screen in a seemingly random yet fluid pattern. Characters within the circles can change dynamically.
+ Code construction recipe
Utilize Remotion's <Sequence> and <AbsoluteFill> for background. Implement a React component for each circle, using `useCurrentFrame()` and `interpolate()` for scaling, positioning (e.g., `translateX`, `translateY`), and rotation. Character changes can be driven by `useVideoConfig()` and `frame` modulo operations. Use `spring()` for organic movement and scaling transitions. SVG filters can be applied for subtle glow or blur effects on the circles.
DotOutlineTextReveal
Text appears initially as an outline formed by a series of small, glowing dots. These dots then connect and fill to reveal the solid text, followed by additional text appearing with a subtle 'typewriter' or 'fade-in' effect.
+ Code construction recipe
For the dot outline, use an SVG path for each character and render small circles along the path using `getPointAtLength()`. Animate the `stroke-dasharray` and `stroke-dashoffset` for the outline reveal. Then, transition to a solid text fill using `interpolate()` for opacity and color. Subsequent text can use `spring()` for a staggered character reveal or a simple `interpolate()` for opacity and scale.
GlitchTextReveal
Text appears with a digital glitching effect, where characters briefly scramble or shift before settling into their final form. Specific parts of the text can also change color or animate independently.
+ Code construction recipe
Implement a custom text component that iterates over characters. For the glitch effect, use `interpolate()` to randomly swap characters or apply small `translateX`/`translateY` offsets for a few frames. Utilize `useCurrentFrame()` and `random()` for the glitch timing. Color changes can be achieved by interpolating between hex values or using conditional styling based on frame numbers. CSS `text-shadow` can enhance the digital look.

- 2
Anticipation Build-up
Purpose. To create a sense of impending revelation and excitement through a countdown, hinting at significant activity.
Execution. Text '1 day.' appears with a unique dot-outline animation, then expands to '1 day. 20+ launches.' with a filling effect.
- 3
Event Reveal
Purpose. To clearly state the event and its context, building on the previous anticipation.
Execution. The text 'OpenAI DevDay' appears with a digital glitch effect, followed by the year '[2026]' in a distinct color.
- 4
Final Branding
Purpose. To leave a lasting impression of the brand and event, reinforcing the core message.
Execution. The full 'OpenAI DevDay [2026]' text remains on screen, clean and prominent, as the audio fades.

Objective
Launch a new AI-powered smart home device called 'AuraSync'.How the recipe adapts
The EmoticonSwarm primitive will feature circles with icons representing smart home functions like 'lightbulb' for lighting control, 'wifi symbol' for connectivity, and 'speaker' for audio. The DotOutlineTextReveal will display 'Seamless Integration.' The GlitchTextReveal will be applied to 'AuraSync' and 'Smart Home Redefined' for the event name, maintaining the vibrant color scheme and fast cuts.Remix blueprint · openai-devday-launch-remix
