Wave warp.

Bend an image into waves and animate their travel across the frame.

A field of straight stripes develops a travelling sine wave while the headline stays still. Wave Warp displaces the grouped shapes, and animated phase carries the wave through them. The stripes, wave height, width, direction, phase and text remain editable.

A prompt to start from

Use Tesseract. Create an eight-second Tesseract Wave Warp study on Bone. Set a crisp Exposure headline “Go with the flow.” on the left and a large field of Sea and Sky vertical stripes on the right. Keep the first beat almost still, then ease Wave Warp height to 0.032, width 3 and direction 90; animate phase continuously at 1.6 radians per second so the sine wave travels through the stripes. Leave headline and brand labeling unwarped. Every stripe is a editable shape, with Wave Warp on their group.

Tesseract plugins and runtime downloads are coming soon.

A few useful details.

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.
