A nine-beat vertical brand film that scrambles, swings, rolls and wipes one sentence into a call to action
This is the format it was composed for. Switch above to see it lay itself out for another: same animation, re-arranged for the frame.
Everything below can be changed without touching the animation. Hand the list to an agent, or edit the values at the bottom of the component file.
The name set in the serif, on the artwork in the middle of the film. Two or three words at most: it is measured to rest 756 reference pixels wide on a cap of 58, and it is drawn 12 percent narrow to get there, so a longer name narrows further rather than wrapping.

The address, on the closing pill and again on the end card. Written without a scheme, the way it is spoken. About 30 characters is the pill's measured width.

Brand token id, one of the keys of BRANDS. The film reads four values from it: `bg` is the paper, `accent` the type, `inkMuted` the unresolved ghost and `ink` the drawn line and the pill. Written for `beacon`, which was sampled off the reference; any light brand with a saturated accent re-voices it without changing a frame number.

A twenty-four second vertical film on white and electric blue. A line scrambles out of symbols and resolves word by word, then slides away and a hand-drawn stroke crosses it. White type on blue swings off the bottom of the frame one letter at a time. Five words climb the frame and turn blue in turn under a drawn arc. A wave of blue ribbons opens to the full frame behind a serif wordmark, which stretches in, holds, and is magnified until one white stroke wipes the frame. A sentence rolls up a column of words, the read word blue at the centre and its neighbours grey. Two single words punch in, then the last word settles, three gradient marks fly across, a call to action builds and an address pill opens under it. It closes on white with the address alone.
