Merry Christmas Red Type — timeline & layers
9:16 · 7s · Christmas & New Year. This page reads the published template each time you open it, so it always matches what the app would load.
How this template is built
Merry Christmas Red Type is built from 15 layers — 6 shape layers, 5 text layers, 2 image layers, 1 audio layer and 1 video layer — spread over 15 tracks and 7s of screen time. Something new happens 11 times along the timeline, and 7 of the layers are yours to replace.
These diagrams show the structure of the project — which kind of layer runs when, and what sits in front of what. They deliberately show no wording, footage or artwork: that part is yours to fill in.
The timeline — when each piece is on screen
Time runs left to right across 7s. Each bar is one layer; a dashed outline means you replace it. Rows near the top render in front of rows below them.
The layer stack — what sits in front of what
Read this top to bottom the way the camera sees it: the first row is nearest the viewer, the last is the backdrop everything else is drawn over.
