What the source does

The view jumps to a macro on the empty composer (plus button huge at bottom left, master 907-911). 'N', 'Nic', 'Nice!!!' type in by master 921 (local 6-14) and hold for about 24 frames. From master 949 (local 42) the rest of the prompt types on and the camera starts sliding right so the caret stays in the right third; the exclamation marks drift off the left edge by 957. From about master 993 (local 86) the camera also drifts down and the controls row (model picker, mic, black send button) rises into view; typing ends at about 1009 (local 102) on 'check-in'. The macro holds until master 1025 (local 118), when a hard cut shows the full composer at normal size with the complete text.

Caret-tracking macro: at high magnification the camera pans laterally in step with typing so the newest characters stay framed, adds a small vertical drift to reveal controls, then cuts wide on the finished prompt.

Phase notes

  1. Frame 0 — Macro on empty composer
  2. Frame 6 — First word types and holds
  3. Frame 42 — Typing resumes; camera pans with the caret
  4. Frame 86 — Camera drifts down; controls row appears
  5. Frame 102 — Typing ends; macro holds
  6. Frame 118 — Hard cut to wide composer

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.

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.
