# Claude Motion templates: 37 motion styles

A style is a spec, not a locked file. Your agent reads it and builds scenes that follow it, so the same look works for any document.

### Paper Editorial

Warm paper, a serif headline and one rust accent. Unhurried, like a magazine feature.

### Blueprint

Deep navy grid with cyan linework. Everything is drawn as an outline and wipes on like a plotter.

### Kinetic Poster

Black stage, condensed type at poster scale and one acid colour. Words land hard and fast.

### Quiet Keynote

A pale stage, generous space and calm numbers on white cards. One figure owns each frame.

### Chalk Lesson

A green board with handwritten headings and a yellow highlight. Steps are written out one by one.

### Ledger

White page, mono figures and a single green for growth. Built so charts stay readable.

### Terminal

A charcoal terminal window in mono with a green prompt. Lines print in steps, like real output.

### Sunrise

A coral-to-violet wash with rounded white type. Friendly and bright, with a springy entrance.

Cream paper, playful pastel geometry and mixed round and square shapes. Collaborative and slightly off-grid.

Deep navy type on pale surfaces with one confident indigo. Trustworthy and tidy, with a soft gradient across the top.

### Newsprint

Off-white paper, black serif headlines and one red rule. Reads like a front page.

Cream paper, sage green and a serif that takes its time. Calm, with watercolour pictures.

### Neon Night

Midnight blue with magenta light. Loud headings, glowing edges, built for a dark room.

Warm beige with terracotta and soft round shapes. Friendly without being childish.
