# Make an animated tweet

A tweet is a still image, so making it a video means deciding what moves. Six presets cover what actually reads well on a small screen: fade, slide up, zoom, a continuous Ken Burns drift, a pop with a slight overshoot, and a typewriter that types the text out.

## How it works

1. Paste the link to the post.
1. Keep the 1:1 canvas and the pop motion.
1. Adjust the 3-second length and the gradient.
1. Press Render video, then download the MP4.

## Settings on this page

| Setting | Value |
| --- | --- |
| Format | MP4 |
| Aspect ratio | 1:1 |
| Theme | light |
| Background | gradient |
| Frame rate | 30 fps |
| Duration | 3s |
| Animation | pop |

Each preset animates in and then holds the finished card, which matters more than it sounds: the final frame is the thumbnail, the screenshot and what a looping viewer sees longest. Motion that never settles reads as unfinished.


## Questions

### Which animation should I use?

Slide up or fade for a straightforward post, typewriter when the words are the point, and Ken Burns when you want continuous movement to hold attention.

### How does the typewriter effect work?

The card is re-rendered at a series of reveal points and the frames step through them on word boundaries, so text never splits mid-word or reflows visibly.

### Can I turn motion off completely?

Yes. The Still preset holds one frame, which is useful when you need a video file of a static card for a platform that will not accept an image.
