A punchy 16:9 title opener rebuilt frame-for-frame from a reference reel: tall rounded panels deal in over black while a serif title types out and a colour-cycling loading bar counts up, the panels regroup into a row of rounded squares over grey, then diagonal slash wipes carry a hero city montage to a neon-street finale. Drop in one aerial clip for the panels and four landscape heroes.

Each slot below is a hole in the finished edit. Fill it and the animation, grade and timing around it stay exactly as they are.
Rhythm Frame — Opener is 21 layers of video, text and sound stacked on a timeline. The structure view draws that timeline out — when each piece appears, how long it holds, what sits in front of what, and exactly which layers are yours to replace. No wording or footage, just the shape of the edit.
Reads the published template live each time you open it, so it always matches what the app loads.
View timeline & layer structure →ExpoCut renders on your device and picks a bitrate from the frame size and the quality you choose, so the file scales with both. At 7.4s and 16:9, expect roughly:
| Export setting | Frame size | Medium quality | High quality |
|---|---|---|---|
| 720p | 1280×720 | 3.4 MB | 5.0 MB |
| 1080p | 1920×1080 | 7.5 MB | 11 MB |
| 4K | 3840×2160 | 29 MB | 44 MB |
These are estimates from the encoder’s own bitrate rule, not fixed numbers. Busy footage — fast motion, grain, confetti, hard cuts — compresses worse and lands above the estimate; a mostly-static talking head lands below it. 1080p is the right choice for Instagram, TikTok and YouTube Shorts, which all re-encode what you upload anyway; 4K is worth the extra size when you want to crop or reframe later. Uploading is where a big file costs you, not the render.
Tap Use Template, or find Rhythm Frame — Opener under Reels › Cinematic in the app’s library.
You supply 5 video clips · 1 text line · 1 music track. Everything else — the cuts, grade, transitions and text motion — is already timed.

Rhythm Frame — Opener is a blank-slot template you fill, running 7.4s at 16:9 Landscape. It uses the same engine as the rest of the app, so anything you see in the ExpoCut showcase — filters, transitions, text animations — can be added on top once the template is open.

A high-energy 16:9 travel montage rebuilt from a reference reel: a calm establishing shot, then flash-cut builds, an aerial-ocean hero beat, and a rapid neon night climax — white-flash section breaks, subtle push-ins on every shot, and a teal-and-orange cinematic grade that shifts cool → warm → dark across the cut. Drop in 12 landscape clips.
