An 8-second vertical quote card for "Less, but better." — Dieter Rams. An oversized accent quote mark drops in first; then the quote's words land one per line, each springing up with a firm settle; an accent rule draws; the author's name and a one-line context fade in last. Near-black background, white type, one orange accent.
Banned: glows, gradients, background photography, script fonts, fade-to-black endings.
</direction>
<structure>
Beat 1 (0–0.8s): quote mark springs in. Beats 2–4 (1.1–4.3s): one word per beat, stacked as lines, ~26 frames apart. Beat 5 (5.0–7.0s): rule draws to 300px; author block fades up. Hold the completed card to 8s — the last frame is the shareable still.
</structure>
<build>
One Remotion composition, 1080x1920 vertical, 30fps. Words are block-level spans with individual spring() starts; the rule is a width interpolate(); the author block is a damped spring (no overshoot — attribution should feel calm). Design the final frame first; the animation is just how it assembles.
</build>
<gotchas>
One word per line only works for short quotes. For a longer quote, switch the prompt's structure to phrase-per-line before you build — do not shrink the type to force it.
</gotchas>
Before you finish: step through the timeline at five points and fix anything that overlaps, clips the frame, or drifts off the beat grid.
A vertical quote card where the words land one at a time and the attribution gets its own beat. Built for the quote-series format: one film per quote, same skeleton.

What broke (and the fix)
- Nothing broke. Words, accent rule and attribution landed on their beats in the first still. The final frame doubles as the shareable still — which is the point of this format.
