# Countdown Cookbook
|
||||
|
||||
Complete, runnable recipes. Every value is derived from an authoritative clock (frame or timestamp) so nothing drifts.
|
||||
|
||||
## 1. Configurable Remotion countdown (mm:ss + dd:hh:mm:ss)
|
||||
|
||||
A single composition that handles any duration and either format. Drop into `src/Countdown.tsx`.
|
||||
|
||||
```tsx
|
||||
import React from "react";
|
||||
import { useCurrentFrame, useVideoConfig, AbsoluteFill } from "remotion";
|
||||
|
||||
const pad = (n: number) => String(n).padStart(2, "0");
|
||||
|
||||
const formatTime = (totalSeconds: number, mode: "mm:ss" | "dd:hh:mm:ss") => {
|
||||
const s = Math.max(0, totalSeconds);
|
||||
if (mode === "mm:ss") {
|
||||
return `${pad(Math.floor(s / 60))}:${pad(s % 60)}`;
|
||||
}
|
||||
const d = Math.floor(s / 86400);
|
||||
const h = Math.floor((s % 86400) / 3600);
|
||||
const m = Math.floor((s % 3600) / 60);
|
||||
const sec = s % 60;
|
||||
// drop leading day field once it is zero, for a cleaner read
|
||||
return d > 0
|
||||
? `${pad(d)}d ${pad(h)}:${pad(m)}:${pad(sec)}`
|
||||
: `${pad(h)}:${pad(m)}:${pad(sec)}`;
|
||||
};
|
||||
|
||||
export type CountdownProps = {
|
||||
durationInSeconds: number;
|
||||
format?: "mm:ss" | "dd:hh:mm:ss";
|
||||
label?: string;
|
||||
};
|
||||
|
||||
export const Countdown: React.FC<CountdownProps> = ({
|
||||
durationInSeconds,
|
||||
format = "mm:ss",
|
||||
label = "",
|
||||
}) => {
|
||||
const frame = useCurrentFrame();
|
||||
const { fps } = useVideoConfig();
|
||||
|
||||
// ceil so the last whole second ("1") is shown for its full duration,
|
||||
// and the display reaches "0" exactly on the final frame.
|
||||
const remaining = Math.max(0, Math.ceil(durationInSeconds - frame / fps));
|
||||
const ended = remaining === 0;
|
||||
|
||||
return (
|
||||
<AbsoluteFill
|
||||
style={{
|
||||
justifyContent: "center",
|
||||
alignItems: "center",
|
||||
background: "#0b0d17",
|
||||
color: "#fff",
|
||||
fontFamily: "Inter, system-ui, sans-serif",
|
||||
}}
|
||||
>
|
||||
{label && (
|
||||
<div style={{ fontSize: 36, opacity: 0.7, marginBottom: 16, letterSpacing: 4 }}>
|
||||
{label.toUpperCase()}
|
||||
</div>
|
||||
)}
|
||||
<div
|
||||
style={{
|
||||
fontSize: 180,
|
||||
fontWeight: 800,
|
||||
fontVariantNumeric: "tabular-nums", // equal-width digits → no jitter
|
||||
lineHeight: 1,
|
||||
color: ended ? "#ff4d4d" : "#fff",
|
||||
}}
|
||||
>
|
||||
{ended ? formatTime(0, format) : formatTime(remaining, format)}
|
||||
</div>
|
||||
</AbsoluteFill>
|
||||
);
|
||||
};
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
Register it so `durationInFrames` matches the countdown exactly — the video ends when the timer does:
|
||||
|
||||
```tsx
|
||||
import { Composition } from "remotion";
|
||||
import { Countdown } from "./Countdown";
|
||||
|
||||
const FPS = 30;
|
||||
const DURATION_SECONDS = 300; // 5-minute "starting soon" timer
|
||||
|
||||
export const RemotionRoot = () => (
|
||||
<Composition
|
||||
id="Countdown"
|
||||
component={Countdown}
|
||||
durationInFrames={DURATION_SECONDS * FPS}
|
||||
fps={FPS}
|
||||
width={1920}
|
||||
height={1080}
|
||||
defaultProps={{ durationInSeconds: DURATION_SECONDS, format: "mm:ss", label: "Starting soon" }}
|
||||
/>
|
||||
);
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
Render any duration/format without touching code — duration is a prop:
|
||||
|
||||
```bash
|
||||
npx remotion render Countdown out/sale.mp4 \
|
||||
--props='{"durationInSeconds":86400,"format":"dd:hh:mm:ss","label":"Sale ends in"}'
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
To hold a final state (e.g. "WE'RE LIVE") instead of ending on `00:00`, extend `durationInFrames` past the countdown and branch on `ended`.
|
||||
|
||||
## 2. Count down to a fixed date (live web component)
|
||||
|
||||
For a real-time page that targets a calendar moment. Drift-free because remaining time is `target − Date.now()` recomputed each frame, never a decrement.
|
||||
|
||||
```js
|
||||
// targetISO must include an offset, e.g. "2026-07-01T09:00:00-07:00",
|
||||
// so the deadline is unambiguous regardless of the viewer's timezone.
|
||||
function startCountdown(targetISO, el) {
|
||||
const target = new Date(targetISO).getTime();
|
||||
const pad = (n) => String(n).padStart(2, "0");
|
||||
let lastShown = -1;
|
||||
|
||||
function tick() {
|
||||
const remainingMs = Math.max(0, target - Date.now());
|
||||
const s = Math.floor(remainingMs / 1000);
|
||||
if (s !== lastShown) {
|
||||
const d = Math.floor(s / 86400);
|
||||
const h = Math.floor((s % 86400) / 3600);
|
||||
const m = Math.floor((s % 3600) / 60);
|
||||
el.textContent = `${pad(d)}:${pad(h)}:${pad(m)}:${pad(s % 60)}`;
|
||||
lastShown = s;
|
||||
}
|
||||
if (remainingMs > 0) requestAnimationFrame(tick);
|
||||
else el.textContent = "00:00:00:00"; // or swap to an "It's live" state
|
||||
}
|
||||
requestAnimationFrame(tick);
|
||||
}
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
Timezone notes:
|
||||
- Bake the offset into the target string (`-07:00`, `Z`). A bare `"2026-07-01T09:00:00"` is parsed as the viewer's *local* time and every viewer sees a different deadline.
|
||||
- To show "ends 9am in *your* timezone everywhere," instead pick the wall-clock time per locale and let each viewer's `Date` resolve it — but that is a different deadline per region. Decide which you want before building.
|
||||
|
||||
## 3. "Starting soon" stream screen
|
||||
|
||||
Livestream lead-in screens hold 5–10 minutes: a clean brand block, social handles, and a calm looping background, with the timer as the focal point. Keep it low-clutter — chat and music carry the wait; the screen just signals "we're about to start."
|
||||
|
||||
```tsx
|
||||
import { AbsoluteFill, useCurrentFrame, useVideoConfig, interpolate } from "remotion";
|
||||
|
||||
export const StartingSoon: React.FC<{ durationInSeconds: number; handle: string; brand: string }> = ({
|
||||
durationInSeconds,
|
||||
handle,
|
||||
brand,
|
||||
}) => {
|
||||
const frame = useCurrentFrame();
|
||||
const { fps, durationInFrames } = useVideoConfig();
|
||||
const remaining = Math.max(0, Math.ceil(durationInSeconds - frame / fps));
|
||||
const pad = (n: number) => String(n).padStart(2, "0");
|
||||
|
||||
// seamless looping gradient: angle cycles over loopFrames with no seam
|
||||
const loopFrames = fps * 8;
|
||||
const angle = interpolate(frame % loopFrames, [0, loopFrames], [0, 360]);
|
||||
|
||||
return (
|
||||
<AbsoluteFill
|
||||
style={{
|
||||
background: `linear-gradient(${angle}deg, #141a3a, #0b0d17 60%)`,
|
||||
color: "#fff",
|
||||
fontFamily: "Inter, system-ui, sans-serif",
|
||||
justifyContent: "center",
|
||||
alignItems: "center",
|
||||
}}
|
||||
>
|
||||
<div style={{ fontSize: 64, fontWeight: 800, marginBottom: 8 }}>{brand}</div>
|
||||
<div style={{ fontSize: 28, opacity: 0.6, letterSpacing: 6, marginBottom: 40 }}>
|
||||
STARTING SOON
|
||||
</div>
|
||||
<div style={{ fontSize: 200, fontWeight: 800, fontVariantNumeric: "tabular-nums", lineHeight: 1 }}>
|
||||
{pad(Math.floor(remaining / 60))}:{pad(remaining % 60)}
|
||||
</div>
|
||||
<div style={{ position: "absolute", bottom: 60, fontSize: 30, opacity: 0.7 }}>{handle}</div>
|
||||
</AbsoluteFill>
|
||||
);
|
||||
};
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
Export as MP4 and add it as a Media/Video source in OBS, or use a looping playout for a browser source. Common durations: 300s (5 min) or 600s (10 min) at 1920×1080.
|
||||
|
||||
## 4. Seamless looping background
|
||||
|
||||
Any motion whose period divides the timeline evenly wraps without a seam. Read animation phase as `frame % loopFrames` so the value at the wrap equals the value at frame 0.
|
||||
|
||||
```tsx
|
||||
const loopFrames = fps * 6; // one full cycle every 6 seconds
|
||||
const phase = (frame % loopFrames) / loopFrames; // 0 → 1, repeats
|
||||
const driftY = Math.sin(phase * Math.PI * 2) * 40; // returns to start each cycle
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
Use sine/cosine (inherently periodic) or `interpolate(frame % loopFrames, [0, loopFrames], [a, a])` with matching start/end so there is no jump. Keep contrast low and motion slow — the number is the subject.

This skill is part of an open motion-graphics collection from iart.ai — the AI motion agent that turns data, scripts, and designs into editable motion graphics (Remotion → MP4). If you'd rather not hand-build this, iart.ai can render countdown videos from a template with a set time and brand — change the text/data and re-export. → [iart.ai](https://iart.ai/?utm_source=github&utm_medium=reference&utm_campaign=tiktok-video-skills&utm_content=ref_footer&utm_term=countdown-video)
