Simple MotionPrompt code: MOVBouncing Ball Manifesto Brand Reel
<direction> Make a 19.2-second vertical brand reel (1080x1920, 30 fps) that loops seamlessly. It is all motion graphics, cut to a 150 BPM beat (0.4 s a beat, 12 bars). The idea: one glossy ball is the hero of the whole film. It bounces through a word-per-beat manifesto hook, becomes the bob of a pendulum, turns into a lamp that lights a page, waits out a fast montage behind your brand name, and ends alone on the end card exactly where the first frame begins. The look is bold editorial type on flat deep-night and paper backgrounds, with a pink-to-orange gradient accent and a violet second accent. Pace: frantic for the first 3.2 s, then two long breathing scenes on a two-beat pulse, a 3.2 s burst of eighth-note cuts, a 2 s climax and a quiet loop point. Avoid footage, voice-over, soft crossfades and any cut that misses the beat: every cut sits on a beat or half beat. Accent-coloured words must use the same ExtraBold weight as the rest, never thinner. </direction> <structure> 1. Hook, 0–3.2 s. A dark frame. The ball (140 px) starts in the centre and falls toward a floor line at about y 1516, shrinking to 88 px, and lands at 0.37 s. From 0.4 s one word appears per beat, then per half beat: "we" (0.4), "don't" (0.8), "just" (1.2), "prompt." (1.6), "we" (2.0), "direct." (2.2, in the accent gradient), "type" (2.6), "light" (2.8), "depth" (3.0). Replace these with your own manifesto lines. The background flips between dark and paper on every cut. On "light" and "depth" the ball flies up and out at the top left. 2. Pendulum, 3.2–8.0 s. Paper background. The ball becomes the bob (112 px) of a thin dark rod hung from a pivot 380 px above the top centre (arm length 1317 px). A blurred shadow of rod and bob is offset to the right. A two-line caps title sits in the middle and changes on every swing: "MADE / BY HAND?" → "MADE / BY CODE." (second line in the accent) → "NO / TIMELINE." → "NO / KEYFRAMES." → "JUST / WORDS." (accent) → "AND / LIGHT.". These are examples to replace. At 7.2 s the light goes out beyond the rod, and the last swing drags the dark across the frame. 3. Lamp, 8.0–12.8 s. Dark #14112E. The ball becomes a glowing lamp whose cone of light reveals a paper page. The page holds "LIGHT / IS JUST / MATH." in caps (example; the last line in violet) and a small logo lockup near y 1430: a gradient dot and your wordmark in ink. From 12.27 s the whole page is lit. 4. Montage, 12.8–16.0 s. On the drop, "[your brand]" in Anton (about 260 px tall, centred) holds still while the world behind it changes on every eighth note (0.2 s). The worlds, in order: - a glossy marbled pink and orange 3D blob with a clearly visible edge, over grey - the same blob closer - flat blocks: violet, dark and paper squares, and the accent gradient - hypnotic ink-and-paper rings zooming and turning - a blank paper tag swinging on a string over violet - a field of dark keyboard keys from above, with a few pink and orange keys pressing - a torus drawn in clearly distinct halftone dots on dark - flat violet with a faint grid - toy 3D shapes tumbling on a dark plum (cubes, balls, rings, cones and capsules in the palette plus yellow #FFD23F) - the same shapes blurred on pastel pink - a glass phone on grey - the blob on violet - a floor of white cubes with pink and orange columns rising - the halftone torus as ink dots on white - flat coral with a grid 5. Voxel finale, 16.0–18.2 s. Violet background. A short word (your product, or the second half of your brand name) is built from small cubes. It is fully formed by 16.6 s, breathes, then bursts apart from 17.72 s while a black hole opens from the centre and fills the frame by 18.17 s. 6. End card, 18.2–19.2 s. Dark. The ball grows from nothing in the centre (142 px at x 539, y 959). Your wordmark in the pink-to-orange gradient appears under it at 18.1 s, holds, and fades out at 18.85 s. That leaves only the ball, exactly where the film's first frame begins, so the loop is seamless. </structure> <composition> Palette: - deep night #0C0A1E and a slightly lighter #14112E for the dark scenes - paper #F2EFFA for the light ones - ink #1C0B5D for type on paper - a pink-to-orange accent gradient #FB2D89 → #FE9117 - a violet second accent #7C4DFF - yellow #FFD23F only for the toy shapes Hook words are paper-coloured on dark cuts and ink on paper cuts. Type: - words and titles in Manrope ExtraBold, with tight tracking (-0.035em on the caps titles) - the brand name in the montage in Anton - a small handle "@yourbrand" (replace) in JetBrains Mono at the top left, 56 px from the left and 246 px from the top, for the whole film Pendulum title: line one about 145 px cap height, line two about 128 px, centred. The ball is a glossy sphere: a soft white highlight up and to the left over a body graded orange → pink → deep magenta. Montage brand name: three layers (a hard shadow offset 9 px, a 16 px outline and the fill). It is white with a dark outline on dark or busy worlds, and dark with a white outline on light ones. Voxel word: one row, about 430 px tall and 890 px wide. The first letter is graded pink to orange from top to bottom; the rest are paper white. End card: ball centred; the gradient wordmark at about y 1225, about 620 px wide. </composition> <techniques> Hook: - Each word lands in four frames with a strong ease-out (power3.out). The entrances rotate in turn: tracking that closes from half an em, a zoom-drop from 125% and 320 px lower, a vertical stretch from 260% anchored at the baseline, and a slide in from 835 px off the left. - Background changes are hard cuts. - On every cut the ball swells to 125% in place for one frame and is at the top of its hop on the next. Over five frames it eases into the other resting spot (x 287 or 788) while shrinking back. Pendulum: - It swings ±23.6° with power3.inOut in 0.34 s, each swing centred on every second beat (3.6, 4.4, 5.2, 6.0, 6.8, 7.6 s), and holds at the ends. - Three faded copies a frame apart trail the bob. - The rod is clearly visible, and its shadow is noticeable. - Each swing wipes the title into the next. The new title shows on the side the bob has already passed and the old one on the other, using rectangular inset masks on the same ease. - At 7.2 s everything beyond the rod's line turns dark, and the last swing drags the dark across the frame. Lamp: - The ball glides to the centre in a third of a second and starts to glow, with a soft orange-pink halo about 220 px around it. - A cone of light opens from the ball as a 7° sliver pointing straight up. It sweeps down to the left and right while widening as the ball moves: to about x 800, y 1090, then x 900, y 975, then up to x 760, y 560. - The cone settles above the words, 120° wide and pointing down. - The cone is a wedge-shaped mask with its apex at the ball, revealing the paper page under the dark. A copy of the page at 28% opacity, 4.5° wider on each side, makes a hard grey penumbra. - From 12.27 s the cone opens to 360° in 0.33 s with an in-out ease. Montage: hard cuts every 0.2 s behind the still name. Each world moves inside its slot: the rings zoom and turn, the tag swings, the keys press, the shapes tumble and the columns rise. Voxel finale: - About 800 small cubes, three deep, on an 11x18 grid per letter. - The cubes start scattered in depth and fly into place with a quartic in-out over half a second, staggered by up to 0.18 s, while specks rush past the camera. - The word breathes: each letter turns a little around its centre, and a ripple runs through its rows. - From 17.72 s every cube bursts outward and toward the lens, streaked with motion blur. - A dark disc opens from a pinhole in the centre (power3.in, 0.37 s from 17.8 s) and fills the frame by 18.17 s, with the cubes flying over it. End card: the ball grows from nothing in about 0.12 s, and the wordmark fades out at 18.85 s. </techniques> <music> Make an original dark, punchy instrumental electronic track at 150 BPM in D minor with a half-time feel (kick on one, snare on three). It has a distorted pulsing eighth-note bass, tight drums and tense pads, plus a wordless processed vocal chop used as a texture, with no singing. It plays from the first frame. Its kicks and snares fall on the word cuts and the pendulum's swings, and it drops at 12.8 s. It ends on a heavy hit with a dark chord exactly on the black hole at 18.0 s, which rings out under the end card. Trim it to 19.2 s on the bar. </music> <sound> Layer these over the music: - a soft click on every word flash - a whoosh on every swing - a riser into the pendulum - a falling sweep when the light goes out - a bell when the ball lights up - a riser into a boom on the montage at 12.8 s - a quiet tick on every new world - a whoosh as the cubes rush in - a small boom when the word lands - a riser into a deep boom under the black hole No voice. </sound>
