Motion design primitives
Synthesizable in Remotion · key components of the blurred-number-transition-showcase template.
BlurredNumberTransition
Individual digits smoothly transition from one value to another with a soft, radial blur effect, creating a 'ghosting' trail of the previous numbers.
+ Code construction recipe
Utilize Remotion's <Text> component with a custom shader or SVG filter for blur. Animate the `text-shadow` property or `filter: blur()` on individual number changes, interpolating between old and new values with a spring animation for a natural feel.
MultiLocaleNumberDisplay
Multiple lines of text display numerical values in different currencies, percentages, compact formats, and international numeral systems, all updating simultaneously.
+ Code construction recipe
Render multiple <Text> components, each with its own data source and formatting logic. Synchronize the animation start times for each number transition using `useCurrentFrame()` and `interpolate()` to ensure all numbers update in unison.
SubtleValueIncrement
Numbers increment or decrement gradually over time, simulating a live data feed, with each digit's change being a smooth, blurred transition rather than an abrupt cut.
+ Code construction recipe
Implement a `useVideoConfig()` and `useCurrentFrame()` to drive the number changes. For each digit, calculate the interpolated value and apply the `BlurredNumberTransition` primitive. Ensure a consistent easing function across all transitions for a unified feel.

Objective
Launch a new cryptocurrency portfolio tracker that displays real-time asset values, percentage changes, and total portfolio worth.How the recipe adapts
The video would open with a static display of various crypto assets (e.g., BTC, ETH, SOL) with their current USD values and percentage changes. Immediately, all numerical values would begin to smoothly transition with the signature blurred effect, simulating live market updates. The total portfolio value at the bottom would also update dynamically. The minimalist aesthetic and Grotesque Sans-serif font would be retained for clarity. Instead of currency symbols, crypto tickers would be used, and the percentage changes would clearly indicate gains or losses. The background would remain a light, neutral color to keep the focus on the data.Remix blueprint · blurred-number-transition-showcase
