Your taste makes it good. > Make launch videos, explainers, product lessons, release videos, social versions and interactive Lottie with Creator Terminal. ## Launch videos Turn your own interface into a launch video. Bring in screens as layers, give the agent a story, then put your hands on the finish. 1. **Bring your app.** Run creator-tui capture in your web project, or pick screens in the browser. Components arrive as named layers. 2. **Give it a direction.** Open Motion Agents (⌃O), choose a film, and describe the story. Add a reference film to teach it the look and pace. 3. **Make it yours.** Move a layer, swap a font, shape a curve, or ask the director to redo one shot. Try saying this in Motion Agents: ``` Make a launch film from these screens. Lead with the problem, show the product, and end on the sign-up. ``` Outputs: MP4, WebM, MOV, .lottie. App capture runs on macOS and Linux. On Windows, start with your artwork or paste from a design tool. [Capture your app](https://terminal.lottiefiles.com/docs/capture/) ## Explainers Explain a feature, a concept or a whole business. Start with your words; the director plans, voices and builds the film around them. 1. **Give it the story.** Drop a script, a one-pager or an article link into Motion Agents. Ask for a narrated explainer. 2. **Approve the plan.** Review the script and choose the voices before it builds. A recurring cast, shots, narration and music come together. 3. **Find your own style.** Restyle a shot by hand or ask for a new cut. Save the look for your next film, or start with Bright Science or Pastel Friends. Try saying this in Motion Agents: ``` Make a narrated explainer from this script. Keep my words, use Bright Science, and land the motion on the narration. ``` Outputs: MP4, Voiceover, Music, .lottie. Directed films need a LottieFiles sign-in and a network connection. Review the script and voices before building. [How directed films work](https://terminal.lottiefiles.com/docs/agents/#films) ## Product lessons Make a short lesson about one feature. Start with a narrated film today; see our own recorded lessons for the workflow we’re building towards. 1. **Write one clear lesson.** Describe what to say and what to show. Give your script to the director to make a narrated film. 2. **Refine the details.** Open a shot in the studio. Change a frame, a font or a layer until the idea is easy to follow. 3. **Learn from our lessons.** Our own lessons use a scripted recorder in this repository, with captions and landscape and vertical cuts. Try saying this in Motion Agents: ``` Turn this lesson script into a narrated film. Keep the words, explain one feature, and show each step clearly. ``` Outputs: Narrated MP4, Editable shots. Early: our scripted screen recorder, caption workflow and paired cuts are repo tools. They are not built into the app yet. [Explore the real lessons](https://terminal.lottiefiles.com/lessons/) ## Release videos Turn your app’s latest changes into a narrated video. Start with release notes, screenshots or a product brief. 1. **Share the context.** Open Motion Agents (⌃O), choose a film and add your release notes, app screens or a short brief. 2. **Review the story.** Creator plans the shots and narration. Review the script and voices before it builds the film. 3. **Make the final cut.** Ask for changes, or open a shot to edit its layers and timing. Use the finished MP4 in your release post, docs or app. Try saying this in Motion Agents: ``` Make a release video from these notes and app screens. Show what changed, why it matters, and how people can use it. ``` Outputs: Narrated MP4, Editable shots. Directed films need a LottieFiles sign-in and a network connection.

Personalise a name, a colour or a score from data, and export a file for every row. 1. **Choose your canvas.** Template size chips offer 9:16, 1:1, 4:5 and 16:9. Resize your own document in ARTBOARD and adjust the composition. 2. **Add the variations.** Bind text and colour to tokens. Match your CSV column names to those tokens: each row becomes a version. 3. **Send the whole set.** Export with --data to write one file per row. Choose a theme for another look from the same document. Run in your terminal: ``` creator-tui export card.ctd --data people.csv --format mp4,dotlottie ``` Outputs: MP4, WebM, GIF, WebP, .lottie. Templates lay themselves out for the chosen size. Your own document may need composition changes after resizing. [Export versions from data](https://terminal.lottiefiles.com/docs/cli/#export) ## Bring your app into motion. Capture screens and components as editable layers. Change your app, capture again, and animate between the two. - **Editable from the start** Retype text, adjust shapes, and animate layers named after your components. - **Two captures. One transition.** Switch a page or open a menu, then capture again. Shared elements move; new ones appear. - **Your component shelf** Browse screens and components from your project, with Storybook variants kept together. Capture runs on macOS and Linux. [See how capture works](https://terminal.lottiefiles.com/docs/capture/) ## Lottie for your app ### UI motion A like that pops. A loader that loops. An empty state with a little character. Ask the copilot, then shape every key yourself. [Animate with the copilot](https://terminal.lottiefiles.com/docs/copilot/) ### Animated icons Trace a picture into vector shapes, animate it, and save the motion as a preset for the next icon in the set. [Work with shapes and motion](https://terminal.lottiefiles.com/docs/editing/) ### Interactive states Connect idle, hover and press. Open States (⌃T), set the rules, and try the interaction before exporting a .lottie for your app. [Build a state machine](https://terminal.lottiefiles.com/docs/states/) ## Install - macOS & Linux (sh): `curl -fsSL https://terminal.lottiefiles.com/install.sh | sh` - Windows (PowerShell): `irm https://terminal.lottiefiles.com/install.ps1 | iex` Run `creator-tui`, open Motion Agents with ⌃O and describe your idea. Video export needs ffmpeg. Directed films also need a LottieFiles sign-in and a network connection.
