Motion design primitives
Synthesizable in Remotion · key components of the ar-interactive-lightscape-showcase template.
ARUserOverlay
A real-world user is seamlessly composited into various 3D virtual environments, appearing to interact directly with the digital world.
+ Code construction recipe
Utilize Remotion's `AbsoluteFill` for the 3D environment, with a `Video` component for the user footage. Apply a chroma key or background removal shader to the user video, then position and scale it within the 3D scene using `interpolate` for depth and perspective.
DynamicEnvironmentCut
Rapid, hard cuts transition between vastly different virtual environments, maintaining the user's presence as the central element.
+ Code construction recipe
Implement `Sequence` components for each environment scene. Use `AbsoluteFill` for each environment's 3D rendering. Transitions are achieved by simply ending one `Sequence` and starting the next, creating a sharp cut. Ensure the ARUserOverlay component is consistent across sequences.
InteractiveObjectHighlight
Virtual objects and UI elements glow or change color slightly upon interaction or when highlighted, indicating their interactive nature.
+ Code construction recipe
For interactive elements, use `spring` or `interpolate` to animate properties like `opacity` or `color` of an overlay or a material's emissive property. Apply a subtle `blur` or `glow` effect using SVG filters or WebGL shaders when an object is 'grabbed' or activated.

Objective
AuraFlow: Interactive Ambient LightscapesHow the recipe adapts
The ARUserOverlay primitive will place a user into their living room, interacting with projected light. DynamicEnvironmentCut will transition between different lightscape themes (e.g., 'Forest Glow', 'Ocean Waves', 'City Sunset'). InteractiveObjectHighlight will show the light reacting to the user's gestures, changing color or pattern with subtle glows and ripples. The overall aesthetic will be a blend of real home footage and stylized, animated light projections.Remix blueprint · ar-interactive-lightscape-showcase
