SHORTS

A realistic picture, explained part by part.

PictureMotion draws the subject once as a realistic picture, then edits that same picture into its other states — cut open, exploded, working — so the framing never jumps. The explanation is animated on top: flows, forces, labels and counters, each on its word.

What it does

The detail that makes it work.

One picture, many states

Cut-away and exploded states are edits of the same image, so the camera never loses its place.

Real parts, outlined

Each part the narration names is found in the picture and lit, outlined or pulled out when it is mentioned.

Same workflow as X-Ray

About 40 or 70 seconds, vertical, opening on a question and voiced in one take with word-by-word captions — part of the Pro plan.

Real renders
