Swap the lyric caption on the beat and walk a colour-cycling dot across the new line

What the source does

Over a saturated music-video shot, a bold white lyric caption sits low in frame (text centre ~y=800). Frames 0-18 hold the outgoing line; a small lilac dot blinks above its last word around local 10-13 (master 968-971). At local 19 (master 977) the caption hard-swaps to the next line and a 28 px dot appears above its first word, stepping colour every ~3 frames (orange, lilac, green) and hopping right in steps: to ~x=528 at f28 (black), ~x=552 at f32 (orange, lilac, green again), then ~x=688 from f41 where it turns green, yellow, blue and finally pink and holds. The caption stays until the shot cuts at master 1019.

Karaoke-style caption: a hard line swap timed to the lyric, with a step-keyed marker dot that changes colour on each beat and hops word to word along the line.

Phase notes

1. Frame 0 — Outgoing lyric line holds
2. Frame 10 — Lilac dot blinks above the last word
3. Frame 19 — Hard swap to next line; dot appears on word one
4. Frame 28 — Dot hops right, colour steps every ~3 frames
5. Frame 41 — Dot on final position, settles pink

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.
