Formulas / across specimens
What the strong ones share.
Each formula is distilled from several measured specimens: the shape in timed beats, the constants, what the best one did differently, and a template recipe.
01Product demosThe AI Motion Proof LadderA 5–9 minute narrated AI-motion test that escalates from sample output to real prompts and harder builds at 9.7–15.2 cuts/min.5 specimens →
The full formula, with timed beats and a template recipe, is Pro. See Pro →
02Product demosThe Design-to-Publish FilmA 37–59 second narrated website-builder tour that turns an edit into a live site at 4.9–12.2 cuts/min.3 specimens →
The full formula, with timed beats and a template recipe, is Pro. See Pro →
03Product demosThe Result-First Software LessonA 6–9 minute voiced design-tool lesson that previews the outcome, then builds it on screen at 1.0–6.8 cuts/min.3 specimens →
The full formula, with timed beats and a template recipe, is Pro. See Pro →
04Product demosThe Silent Prompt-to-Result DemoA 23–43 second cursor-led desktop capture that shows input, generation, and a usable result with 0–7.3 cuts/min.5 specimens →
05ExplainersThe Illustrated Model LadderA narrated, flat-vector science lesson that climbs from a familiar question to a harder model over roughly 6–8 minutes, with long evolving scenes and few hard cuts.3 specimens →
The full formula, with timed beats and a template recipe, is Pro. See Pro →
06ExplainersThe One-Canvas Visual Reasoning LessonA voice-led math or technical lesson that transforms one dark diagram into a system, equation, and test over a 5–19 minute video; the measured six-minute opening uses no hard cuts.3 specimens →
The full formula, with timed beats and a template recipe, is Pro. See Pro →
07ExplainersThe Result-First Build TutorialA presenter or voiceover shows a finished motion result, then proves the workflow through screen actions and previews; uploads run about 9–22 minutes with brisk six-minute openings.4 specimens →
The full formula, with timed beats and a template recipe, is Pro. See Pro →
08ExplainersThe Silent Visual ExperimentA fixed-frame 18–64 second simulation lets one visible process answer a scientific question without narration or cuts.4 specimens →
09Film + musicThe Illustrated Lyric NarrativeA 2:21–6:00 illustrated song film that turns each lyrical claim into a concrete scene, with a recurring character and rising edit intensity.3 specimens →
10Film + musicThe Silent Pixel-Action LoopA 10–18.8-second fixed-view pixel scene that shows its moving subject immediately and sustains one repeating action without voice.3 specimens →
11Film + musicThe Single-Stage Character GagA wordless 30-second cartoon that sets up one desire or problem, delays the solution, then pays it off in one mostly fixed scene.3 specimens →
12Film + musicThe Typed-Prompt World RevealA 97–168-second cinematic animation in which a sparse typed line becomes an expanding abstract world at a measured visual pace.3 specimens →
13Interactive + 3DThe Continuous Playable World TourA finished world appears immediately, then a player or camera travels through connected places in mostly long takes, typically 40–70 seconds at 0–2.6 cuts/min.8 specimens →
14Interactive + 3DThe Parallel Result ComparisonTwo to four labeled outputs run together in a fixed grid, usually for 11–37 seconds with zero editorial cuts.11 specimens →
15Interactive + 3DThe Staged Build RevealA plan, sketch, or stripped model gains visible components in ordered stages before a finished or working payoff, usually 19–41 seconds at 0–4.4 cuts/min.4 specimens →
16Interactive + 3DThe Visible Cause-and-Effect LabA control, live system, and result share the screen as inputs visibly change the output, usually 22–71 seconds with 0–8.2 cuts/min.7 specimens →
17Launch filmsThe Delayed Hardware RevealA 29–57 second music-led object film that begins with fragments, proves materials or features, then resolves to a full-product hero; usually 11–26.5 cuts/min.4 specimens →
The full formula, with timed beats and a template recipe, is Pro. See Pro →
18Launch filmsThe Physical Capability ProofA 50–107 second speech-free film that lets a robot perform sustained real tasks before widening to harder abilities; 6.2–19.6 cuts/min.4 specimens →
19Launch filmsThe Presenter-Led Product DemoUsually 57–104 seconds of a maker or product leader announcing a change, proving it in real UI, and returning with a single action; 1.7–17 measured cuts/min.7 specimens →
20Launch filmsThe Silent UI WorkflowA 31–90 second, speech-free software launch that moves from one plain request through visible UI work to a result; usually 0–12.5 measured cuts/min plus screen changes.7 specimens →
