SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

💡 This Skill includes references (resource) and assets (resource) components.

What problem does it solve?

This Skill prevents common Remotion rendering issues by enforcing frame-driven animations, safe asset loading, and deterministic media handling so your exported video matches what you expect.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • Frame-Driven Animation Rules: Use useCurrentFrame() for all motion and avoid CSS/third-party animations that cause flickering, with special guidance for Three.js scenes and sequencing.
  • Media & Asset Handling: Import and reference images, video, audio, fonts, and subtitles reliably using staticFile() and Remotion components that wait for assets to load before rendering.
  • Practical Rendering Utilities: Apply Remotion patterns for audio visualization, captions (including SRT import/display), charts, and dynamic composition metadata driven by measured media duration and dimensions.

Quick Start

Ask the AI: "I’m building a Remotion composition in React—what rules should I follow to animate text, handle audio/captions, and keep rendering deterministic?"

Frequently Asked Questions about remotion-best-practices

High-intent search queries and answers about installing and using this skill.

FAQPage Schema
Why does my Remotion video flicker or render differently than the preview?

Remotion flickering usually happens when motion is driven by CSS or third-party animation libraries instead of useCurrentFrame(). Enforcing frame-driven animations ensures deterministic, flicker-free video rendering that matches your preview.

How do I properly load images, audio, and video assets in Remotion?

To load media assets reliably in Remotion, use staticFile() to reference local files and Remotion's built-in media components. This ensures images, videos, audio, and fonts are fully loaded before rendering frames.

Can I use CSS animations or third-party libraries for timing in React Remotion compositions?

You should avoid CSS animations and third-party timing libraries in Remotion compositions. Driving all motion through useCurrentFrame() guarantees deterministic frame-accurate rendering and prevents broken video exports.

How do I import and display SRT captions in a Remotion composition?

You can import and display SRT captions in Remotion by following specific subtitle rule documents. The Skill provides linked guidance for handling captions, audio visualization, and sound effects within your React compositions.

Does Remotion support Three.js scenes and TransitionSeries overlays?

Yes, Remotion supports Three.js scenes via ThreeCanvas and TransitionSeries overlays. Special implementation rules apply to ensure frame-driven motion and deterministic rendering within these advanced React compositions.

What's the best way to handle dynamic composition metadata based on media duration in Remotion?

The best way to handle dynamic composition metadata in Remotion is by measuring media duration and dimensions directly. This allows you to dynamically adjust video properties and ensure accurate rendering timelines.
