Dot grid

A grid of small dots with ripples running out from a few points: as a ripple passes, the dots swell and take the accent, then settle — a quiet, techy ground for titles.

That writes ProRes 4444. The same item in another shape, brand or format:

volito render backdrops/dot-grid --aspect 9:16 --style cobalt --out dot-grid-9x16.mov
volito render backdrops/dot-grid --format mp4 --out dot-grid.mp4
volito still backdrops/dot-grid --t 4 --out dot-grid.png
volito info backdrops/dot-grid     # every prop and part
volito add backdrops/dot-grid      # copy its source into ./motion to edit

From Node:

import { findItem, renderVideo } from "volito";

await renderVideo(findItem("backdrops/dot-grid"), { props: {}, out: "dot-grid.mov" });

Or ask an agent with the MCP server connected: “Render the Volito dot grid (backdrops/dot-grid) in 9:16, in our brand.”

Props

Set each with --prop name=value, or all at once with --props and a JSON object.

Parts

Each part takes any move, ease or idle: --motion ground.in=pop.

Pattern

Any of the sixteen animated patterns as a full ground — mesh, halftone, dither, Bauhaus tiles, waves, rings, dots, confetti, pills, sunburst… — in the brand's colours or your own.

Aurora

Soft blooms of the brand's colours drift and melt into each other under a fine grain — a calm, premium ground for titles.

Bauhaus field

A full field of Bauhaus tiles — quarter circles, half discs, discs, diamonds — turning in a diagonal wave, in the brand's colours.

Retro grid

Synthwave: a neon grid floor rushing toward you under a striped sun and a glowing horizon, stars twinkling above.

Lava blobs

Gooey blobs in the accents drift, merge and pull apart like a lava lamp.

Colour sweep

A slow, rich gradient through the brand's colours that turns and shifts, with a light grain — the simplest premium ground.
