Description

Hey HN, meet Motion — a frontier agent for motion design.Here’s how it works:1. Give Motion a prompt — include any context like product links, X threads, YouTube videos, personal assets, and design MD. Motion will reference styles, incorporate research, and storyboard scenes.2. Motion creates the video — it can orchestrate entire explainers, launch videos, logo animations, convert articles to video, or even add motion design to your existing videos.3. Edit everything — after generation, edit everything directly: resize, drag and drop, modify elements. Or just chat with Motion to iterate. No need to re-generate entire scenes or deal with hallucinated artifacts.We made Motion's launch video using Motion, check it out here: https://x.com/_adishj/status/2062203755718930550?s=20Would love to have the community try Motion and give us any and all feedback — we'd love to hear it!

Could you build this?

Partial While an agentic UI that storyboards scenes and coordinates video creation can be vibe-coded, the underlying generative motion graphics engine, animation rendering pipeline, and custom models require specialized multimedia infra.

What it would actually take: A full version requires an orchestration layer (Next.js/FastAPI) that translates prompts into programmatic motion code (such as Remotion, Skia, or After Effects JSX/Lottie) combined with video diffusion or fine-tuned text-to-graphics models. The hard part is building a deterministic, high-fidelity rendering pipeline that scales with heavy GPU rendering nodes and precise frame-accurate timeline synchronization.
