Pop a lyric caption in after a shot change with a beat dot that blinks colours, hops once and leaves

What the source does

Local 0-4 (master 1180-1184) is a brief insert of a bright comic-art frame with no caption. At local 5 (1185) a hard cut returns to the saturated dance set, still with no caption. At local 7 (1187) a bold white lyric line appears low in frame in one frame, with a 28 px dot above its first word. The dot steps colour every 3-6 frames (green, yellow, blue, black, orange, lilac, yellow, pink), hops right to above the fourth word at ~f36 (1216) and disappears at ~f40 (1220). The caption itself stays on screen unchanged through the rest of the window.

Caption pop-in on a fixed frame after a cut, decorated with a step-keyed beat dot that cycles colour, hops once and exits while the caption holds.

2. Frame 5 — Hard cut back to the set
3. Frame 7 — Caption pops in with green dot
4. Frame 36 — Dot hops to fourth word, turns pink
5. Frame 40 — Dot gone, caption holds

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.

Recorded limits

• Visual fidelity is an authored draft judgement from sampled source frames; no independent blind review or native Resolve execution.
• Both variants rerendered from the packaged text renderer to repair a prior code/preview mismatch.
