India Welcomes You

# Float Up Sample — India Welcomes You A travel set recreated from an 11.6s screen recording of a 10.4s reel. Full-bleed landscapes, a wash over each one, and two mechanisms: words that fade up from far below the frame on a long `expo.out`, and blocks of copy that do the same in one piece. Seven scenes. Three are the recording — the opener, the corner standfirst and the closing line — and four more are built from the same two mechanisms at different copy shapes, so the set covers a whole reel rather than the three beats that were filmed. ## Scenes | scene | carries | how the type arrives | | --- | --- | --- | | `welcome` | one huge word, a tracked greeting, a hairline | per-WORD rise, the greeting 0.17s behind the name, the rule last | | `kicker` | a tracked label over a one-line headline | per-WORD rise, label first, then the line | | `caption` | a corner standfirst, low left | the whole BLOCK fades up — no word split | | `three` | three short caps rows, left of frame | one continuous per-WORD stagger through all three rows | | `figure` | a hairline, a number, a tracked label | rule fades, number rises, label rises after it | | `quote` | two sentence-case lines and a credit | BLOCK fade for the quote, per-WORD rise for the credit | | `statement` | a two-line closing line, centred caps | per-WORD rise through both rows | ## The measurements Everything is fitted to the recording (1060×594, 60fps) and scaled ×1.8113 to the 1920×1080 base canvas. The three source cuts sit at 3.883s / 7.350s / 10.767s — a 3.45s pitch, hard cuts in the source; the boundaries here are `fade`, because a template cannot know its own length. | what | measured | stored | | --- | --- | --- | | the name | 120px cap, 434px ink → Roboto 700 at 306px | `font.size` 94.17 | | the greeting | 40px cap, no tracking | `font.size` 68.72 | | the closing line | 54px cap, 75px line pitch → 0.99em | `font.size` 77.83, `lineHeight` −17.76 | | the standfirst | 46.5px Poppins 600, 51.6px line pitch → 1.11em | `font.size` 30.24, `lineHeight` −7.53 | | the rise | 290px at 1060 → 525px at 1920 | `y: 27.34cw`, `expo.out`, 0.55s | | the stagger | 4.5 frames at 30fps | 0.155s | The faces were identified by cap-normalised ink width against ten candidates rather than by eye: the name measures 3.63 ink-widths per cap against Roboto's 3.57, and `MAKE MEMORY` lands within 0.5% of Roboto 700 at the fitted cap. The standfirst's single-storey `a` and straight-tailed `y` are Poppins. The four added scenes reuse those two faces at cap heights stated in the same recording units, and every stack is re-derived per ratio from the base's own gaps in display px — never scaled as a frame. A row that would run past its box in 1080 shrinks the whole stack together, so the gaps stay proportional. The rise is NOT masked. In the source the words are fully visible while still below their line — the recording shows the name legible 155px low — so there is no per-line `overflow: hidden` here and no scene css at all. ## The palette Six roles, and a `scrim` role is the one that makes a variant a LOOK rather than a text colour: every scene carries a full-bleed wash over its picture, so a variant can invert the whole thing instead of only recolouring type. | variant | what it is | | --- | --- | | `daylight` | the authored one — a barely-there dark wash, white type | | `sand` | warm wash, cream type | | `sea` | cold teal wash, pale blue type | | `dusk` | warm wash, gold type — not white | | `bleach` | a heavy linen wash that lifts the picture to near-white, near-black type | | `noir` | a heavy near-black wash, white type, grey support — high-contrast mono | | `citrus` | an acid-lime duotone with black type | | `plum` | a magenta-plum duotone with pale rose type | ## The pictures Seven stand-in landscapes from the shelf, all `cover` at the full frame with a slow 2% push, because the source's backgrounds are moving footage and a held still is not the same beat. Only `caption` and `three` are marked `broll`: the rest are title, stat and quote cards, and those hold one picture.
