Trying to Make a Trailer, Not Just a Screenshot

A Remotion + Next.js project built to animate the Whist Scorer origin story as a short promo video.

Rendered frame from the Whist Scorer Remotion promo showing the ski-trip build story
One rendered frame from a sixty-second cut — voice dictation, a Replit design-mode prompt, and the actual line I said at the table.
The verdict

One real composition, one voiceover script, and a template's worth of demo scenes I never got round to deleting.
