Freeze frame effect

Freeze sticker: a motion graphic for talking-head videos. Copy the prompt, and Takes puts it on your take.

Paste in Takes

Add a Freeze sticker at 0:01 with the name tag "Lena" and "Creator" under it.

Works in the Takes chat, or in Claude Code with the Takes MCP.

What it does

The picture freezes, the speaker lifts off as a sticker with a thick white outline over a blurred, darker background, and a name tag pops on. Then the live footage goes on.

How it is made

Cut-out. A HyperFrames composition (HTML and GSAP) that Takes renders on your Mac and lays over your take, timed to the words you say. It works in 9:16, 4:5, 1:1 and 16:9. It needs a cut-out of the speaker; Takes makes it on your Mac, no key needed. The people in the preview are made with AI; they are not real people.
