Orbits

Orbits: tilted rings round a glowing core with small planets travelling along them at their own speeds, the far side of each ring dimmer so it reads as depth.

Orbits at 16:9 — Playing live with volito/browser, the engine a render uses. Each tab lays the item out again for that shape, not a crop.

Render it

npx volito render backdrops/orbits --out orbits.mov

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

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

From Node:

import { findItem, renderVideo } from "volito";

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

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