# Motion brief: Fieldnote · Launch film

You are directing a 30-second launch film in Remotion. Think in frames: plan every beat as a frame range at 30 fps, and name keyframes by frame number (f0, f18, …) in your plan and in your self-review.

## Goal
- Message: “Meeting notes that write themselves.”
- Audience: product teams at growing startups
- Call to action: “Start free at fieldnote.app”

## Format
- 30 s at 30 fps = 900 frames (f0–f899)
- 16:9, 1920×1080. Keep text inside a 54px title-safe margin.
- One <Composition id="FieldnoteFilm" width={1920} height={1080} fps={30} durationInFrames={900} />, one <Sequence> per beat.

## Brand (locked)
- Colors: #0f1216 and #ed4423, plus white and neutral grays. No other hues.
- Type: Host Grotesk. Two sizes per scene at most.
- Avoid: stock footage, lens flares, bounce easing, gradients.

## Motion language
- Entrances: cubic-bezier(0.16, 1, 0.3, 1) over 18 frames (0.6 s).
- Exits: ease-in cubic-bezier(0.55, 0, 1, 0.45) over 12 frames.
- Crossfades and slow 2% pushes. Holds of at least 1.5 s. No overshoot anywhere.

## Beat plan
### 1. Hook · f0–f104 (0.0–3.5 s)
- Fieldnote in motion within the first second. No logo intro.
- f0: first frame is already worth stopping on (it is the thumbnail)
- f0–f18: main element enters and settles
- f93–f104: exit, or hard cut on f105
### 2. Problem · f105–f269 (3.5–9.0 s)
- One concrete shot of the pain product teams at growing startups feel today.
- f105: cut lands on the beat
- f105–f123: main element enters and settles
- f258–f269: exit, or hard cut on f270
### 3. Reveal · f270–f539 (9.0–18.0 s)
- Fieldnote arrives and the message lands: “Meeting notes that write themselves.”.
- f270: cut lands on the beat
- f270–f288: main element enters and settles
- f528–f539: exit, or hard cut on f540
### 4. Proof · f540–f764 (18.0–25.5 s)
- The feature working on real interface, or one number that matters.
- f540: cut lands on the beat
- f540–f558: main element enters and settles
- f753–f764: exit, or hard cut on f765
### 5. Call to action · f765–f899 (25.5–30.0 s)
- End card: “Start free at fieldnote.app”. Hold it still and readable.
- f765: cut lands on the beat
- f765–f783: main element enters and settles
- f783–f899: hold the end card completely still

## Sound
- Music at 120 BPM: one beat every 15.00 frames, a bar every 60.0.
- Beat boundaries above are snapped to the beat grid: f0, f105, f270, f540, f765.
- Every on-screen impact gets a sound; never let a picture hit land after its sound.

## Before rendering, check these frames
- f0: is the first frame worth stopping on?
- f104: has the viewer seen Fieldnote yet?
- f288: is the main element settled, readable and inside the safe margin?
- f765–f899: is the call to action readable for at least 60 frames (2 s)?
- Every entrance: settled within 18 frames, no bounce.
- Only #0f1216, #ed4423 and neutrals anywhere in the frame.
- Render f0, f104, f288 and f899 as stills and review them before the full render.

## Deliverables
- 1920×1080 H.264 MP4 at 30 fps with AAC audio, plus the editable project source.
