How to use it

Put this in your video

Turn a raw clip into an ad unit: framed footage, headline, call to action. Paste this into Claude Code, Codex, or any coding agent.

Prompt

Use the OverlayMotion video templates from https://github.com/ricardo/overlay-motion Wrap my clip in the Video Card template with the headline "Raw clip in, ad unit out" and the call to action "Try it free".

Have ready: The clip, the headline, and the button text.
Hand it your clip: the footage plays inside the template's own frame.
Defaults to the full frame for about 6 seconds. Ask for another spot, a start time, or a longer hold.
A correction is one sentence: “Make it vertical for Reels.”

Spec knobs

What the spec changes without touching props

These live on the overlay, not in this template. They are renderer-provided, so they behave the same here as on every other template.

region: Where it sits. One of the 12 named boxes, or your own { "x": 62, "y": 12, "w": 34, "h": 42 } in percent of the frame. This template is designed around fullscreen, which is what it uses when the spec says nothing.

scale: Uniform size inside the resolved region, 0.25 to 2. Props that size the artwork stay relative to the region box, so scale is how an overlay grows past it.
time: When it lives: start, duration, or the appear + hold pair (entrance length plus how long the finished overlay stays). Seconds (3s), percentages (66%) and negative seconds from the end (-2s) are all valid.
motion: Object motion, applied to the element itself so nothing is cropped or zoomed. Unset here, so add { "style": "shake" } (or wobble, float, sway-3d) with amount (0..1) and its own time window, or one of the skew-* sweeps for a single slow turn into a perspective keystone. Pass an array to stack several.

enter: Renderer-owned entrance, 0.6s, identical on every template. It stacks with whatever entrance the template already runs, so set the template's own entrance prop to none when you drive it from here.

exit: How it leaves: blur-out melts it away, fade-down drifts down, shrink scales to center (0.9s each), vanish pops it out of existence in 0.45s. Set one and the template's own fade steps aside.
blur-outfade-downshrinkvanish
camera: Moves the region's VIEWPORT rather than the element: push-in, pull-out, the pan-* family, handheld. Its own transform layer, so it stacks with motion, enter, exit and scale.
sound: Per-overlay override of the spec's sound block: enabled, volume, and a sounds map that remaps one cue by name ({ "pop": "ding" }, a path to your own file, or false to mute just that cue). The map is keyed by CUE, so remapping pop also changes an exit: "vanish", which fires pop too. To change only this template's own sound, use its sfx prop instead. Core palette: click, pop, whoosh, ding, typewriter.
