Freeze frames.

Hold a selected source moment on screen.

Pause the action on a chosen video frame, then let it continue. The moving pour holds mid-stream while the typography arrives, making the suspended moment easy to see. The freeze remains an editable video segment: changing its source position selects a different frame.

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. Create an eight-second cinematic Tesseract freeze-frame example from the supplied water-pour source. Keep the footage large above a simple Mirage Bone footer reading “Keep this moment.” Let the pour move for 2.5 seconds, hold the selected source frame for 3.7 seconds, then resume naturally from that same source position for the final 1.8 seconds. During the hold, reveal the small word “Hold.” in the open upper-right area. Use video timing, not an extracted still or baked paused video, and keep the frozen source position independently editable. The example is silent.

A few useful details.

Does a freeze frame also stop the sound?

A freeze holds a visual source frame. Audio timing and any sound continuing under the freeze are separate creative decisions.

How do I try this with my agent?

Copy the prompt into your supported local agent with Tesseract installed. Review the preview, then ask for the changes you want. The composition stays editable as you refine it.

Where does the video render?

Tesseract previews and renders locally on macOS, Windows, or Linux. The local engine is free; your agent’s subscription or usage costs are separate.

Read the prompt

Set up Tesseract by Mirage so you can create editable designs, edit videos, and make motion graphics in this agent’s environment. Read https://github.com/mirage-hq/Tesseract and check the requirements for this local or hosted environment. If it is supported, follow the official plugin or skills installation guide, use its required runtime version, verify the download checksum, and confirm a short preview renders correctly. Then ask what I want to make and which brand references or source assets I have. Keep the editable project and source assets with the finished render.
