What the source does

After a hard cut to white (~f1) the blue second word of a two-word mark is already sitting right of centre while the black first word types in character by character to its left (~f2-13); the pair reads as one centred wordmark once complete. It holds (~f14-41), then the characters are deleted from the right end backwards (~f42-57) until nothing remains. At ~f58 a small black ring-knot glyph scales up at centre (~f58-66) and holds.

End-card wordmark: char type-on of the first word against a pre-placed second word, hold, backspace-erase from the tail, then a scale-in glyph replaces the text.

Phase notes

  1. Frame 0 — White field
  2. Frame 2 — Blue word present, black word types in
  3. Frame 14 — Hold complete wordmark
  4. Frame 42 — Backspace erase from the right
  5. Frame 58 — Glyph scales in
  6. Frame 66 — Hold

Use this example

  1. Watch the source and draft at normal speed. Compare the order of actions, the held states, and the transition into the result.
  2. Download the project and read its README before changing inputs. The package includes its implementation and declared dependencies.
  3. Replace the sample content through the package's documented input or content builder. Keep source footage in the research comparison.
  4. Render your adaptation and inspect text fit, framing, intermediate states, and entry and exit frames.
A runnable draft is not a fidelity approval.

The source and remake are different assets. The original code-based illustration remains editable; source footage is a research reference. Read the retained findings below before using the choreography.

  • Visual fidelity is an authored draft judgement from sampled source frames; no independent blind review or native Resolve execution.
