Title card

A full-frame chapter or opening title: a kicker chip, the title built letter by letter, a brush underline, a subtitle — over the brand's ground with an outlined number drifting behind.

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 essentials/title-card --prop kicker="Chapter two" --prop title="Depth over reach" --out title-card.mov

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

volito render essentials/title-card --aspect 9:16 --style cobalt --out title-card-9x16.mov
volito render essentials/title-card --format mp4 --out title-card.mp4
volito still essentials/title-card --t 2 --out title-card.png
volito info essentials/title-card     # every prop and part
volito add essentials/title-card      # copy its source into ./motion to edit

From Node:

import { findItem, renderVideo } from "volito";

await renderVideo(findItem("essentials/title-card"), { props: { kicker: "Chapter two", title: "Depth over reach" }, out: "title-card.mov" });

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