Topographic

Contour lines like a topographic map, slowly shifting as if the land were breathing.

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/topo --out topo.mov

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

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

From Node:

import { findItem, renderVideo } from "volito";

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

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

Props

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