Still-image layers.

Mix photos, screenshots, and other still images with footage.

Bring a still image into a moving composition. The photograph remains an independent image layer while the surrounding print and caption drift together. The photo framing, card, typography and motion can all be revised separately.

A prompt to start from

Use Tesseract. Create an eight-second Tesseract still-image study with the supplied coastal JPEG, on a Mirage Sky canvas. Place “Still.” and “Full of life.” as a large, quiet Exposure[-30] composition on the left. On the right, frame the photograph in an editable Bone print with 22 px top and side insets and a more generous lower border for “A moment, kept.” in Denim INK. Use a Image layer for the photograph and separate text/card elements. Gently rotate the parent print from−4 to+3 degrees and give it a subtle vertical drift. Keep the image itself frozen, the print well clear of the canvas edges, and all text readable throughout. No sound is needed.

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.
