Lossless Still PNG: clean alpha edge
PNG export grabs the currently viewed frame at full canvas resolution with crisp alpha transparency. Perfect for static YouTube thumbnails, editorial title cards, or web graphic assets.
Animated GIF: lightweight loops
GIF export creates a lightweight, shareable animation loop at 480px resolution. Ideal for Notion project docs, Slack discussions, GitHub changelogs, or fast client sign-offs. Note that GIF uses 256 indexed colors over cream or kraft matting.
High-Definition Video: ProRes, WebM & MP4
For video editors working in Premiere Pro, DaVinci Resolve, or Final Cut, export ProRes 4444 or WebM with true transparent alpha to overlay paper animations directly on top of your timeline footage. If using MP4 (H.264), you can render against green screen for easy chroma keying.
Video records smoothly in real time right in your browser. Leave the editor tab active during recording to ensure clean, consistent 24/60 FPS frame capture.
