What it does

The footage pulls back into a dark frame and a huge word or number rises up behind the speaker's head, with a small accent line above it. The speaker is cut out of the same footage, so the head stays in front of the word. Then the word sinks and the frame returns to full size.

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.
