Reveal footage through an editable shape.

Give a video a custom silhouette without baking it into the footage. Your agent can reshape the mask and animate the reveal while keeping the video layer intact.

A curved mask opens onto moving footage.

Try it in your agent.

Use this prompt as a starting point. Review the result, then ask for the details you want to change.

A prompt to start from

Use Tesseract to reveal the supplied coastal clip through an asymmetric curved window. Keep a quiet area beside it for a headline. Animate the window from narrow to fully open, then hold while the footage continues moving. Use an editable vector mask, keep the original video separate, and check that the person stays visible throughout.

Tesseract plugins and runtime downloads are coming soon.

Keep control of the result.

Mask shape
Edit the outline and its Bézier handles.
Reveal timing
Animate the mask’s geometry or transform over time.
Source footage
Replace or retime the clip separately from the mask.

A few useful details.

Does the mask modify the original footage?

No. The mask controls which parts of the video layer are visible. The source clip remains separate.

Can the mask move or change shape?

Yes. The vector outline and supported transforms can be animated, so the reveal can evolve over time.

How do I try this with my agent?

Tesseract plugins and runtime downloads are coming soon. Save the sample prompt for launch. Once Tesseract is installed, your local agent can use it to create, preview, and refine an editable project.

Where does the video render?

Tesseract previews and renders locally on a Mac. The local engine is free; your agent’s subscription or usage costs are separate.
