Motion design primitives
Synthesizable in Remotion · key components of the vibrant-ui-showcase template.
GradientBlurReveal
A blurred background transitions into a sharp, vibrant gradient, often accompanied by a logo or text appearing with a scale and fade effect.
+ Code construction recipe
Use Remotion's `AbsoluteFill` with a `LinearGradient` component. Apply a `Blur` effect from `remotion-filters` and animate its `radius` property. For text/logo, use `spring` for `scale` and `interpolate` for `opacity`.
UIDragDropFlow
Simulates user interaction with a desktop UI, showing files being dragged, uploaded with a progress indicator, and a completion state.
+ Code construction recipe
Render a `Sequence` of UI components. Animate `x` and `y` positions for drag, `width` or `scale` for progress bars, and `opacity` for status icons. Use `delay` and `duration` to sequence events realistically.
DynamicTextEntry
Text appears as if being typed, followed by a generated link or additional descriptive text, often with a subtle zoom or pan.
+ Code construction recipe
Utilize `Sequence` and `spring` for character-by-character text reveal. For link generation, animate `opacity` and `scale` of the link element. Camera motion can be achieved with `interpolate` on `transform` properties of the main scene container.

Objective
Launch video for 'SyncFlow', a collaborative project management tool.How the recipe adapts
The GradientBlurReveal primitive would introduce the SyncFlow logo against a vibrant gradient. UIDragDropFlow would be adapted to show dragging tasks between columns or attaching files to project cards. DynamicTextEntry would simulate team members typing comments or updating task statuses in real-time. The overall aesthetic would shift from document sharing to project workflow, using a modern co-working space as the backdrop instead of a home office.Remix blueprint · vibrant-ui-showcase
