Motion Design Systems

Remotion is an excellent tool for collecting your organization's animated design resources. You can:

  • Create static and animated assets
  • Organize them as compositions and folders in the Remotion Studio
  • Use HTML and CSS, as well as shaders and effects
  • Allow parameterization
  • Export assets using server-side or client-side rendering

Remotion's Design System

Remotion's design system is hosted at remotion.dev/brand, and its source is available in the Remotion monorepo.

Use it as inspiration for your own motion design system.

Hosting the design system

The Remotion Studio can be hosted as a static deployment on many hosts, such as Vercel, Netlify, or Cloudflare.

Parameterization

You can display a form in the deployed Studio, allowing users to parameterize your assets.

Rendering

When deployed as a static site, you can render assets using client-side rendering. Exporting assets as transparent ProRes, suitable for elements such as lower thirds, is not yet possible client-side.

In that case, you have two options:

  • Use the Copy CLI command button in the render dialog to get a command that renders the asset in any terminal.
  • Deploy the Studio on a VPS to retain the ability to render from the Studio.

License

Remotion is free for organizations of up to three people. Companies with more employees need to obtain a Company License.

If renders are triggered manually on demand, this use case falls under Remotion for Creators. If any automation is connected to it, it falls under Remotion for Automators.
