Facts Listicle

Status: showcase candidate

Tracked demo:

Use this lane when the strongest format is a compact countdown, “things you didn't know,” or fast facts sequence.

Core shape:

• open on the strangest or strongest fact
• one fact per beat
• explicit sequence markers
• support visuals reset between facts
• real voiceover with caption timing, not mock or silent audio
• visual cadence pulses or hard resets often enough for short-form pace

Current proving result:

• Final local MP4: experiments/proving-wave-3/fast-facts-countdown/outputs/final/video.mp4
• Tracked preview MP4: docs/demo/demo-13-fast-facts-countdown.mp4
• Publish-prep passed with portrait format, 30.5s duration, cadence, and audio-signal checks.
• OCR caption-sync was not run for this FFmpeg fallback render because there is no captions.remotion.json sidecar yet.

Use motion-design-coder for countdown cards, number pops, fact-card resets, and CTA pulses. The listicle should not rely on static cards or CSS clocks when rendered through Remotion.
