Hey there 👋 Anirudh (@anirudh_rahul) and I built Cracked as part of this summer’s YC batch. It’s well known that Adobe AfterEffects and similar platforms are notoriously painful to use. Only a handful of individuals have mastered the motion graphics techniques required to make even simple animations. Cracked lets anyone create animations with intuitive text prompts. Our goal is to make motion graphics truly accessible through promptable animation generation. We’re focused on building a motion graphics copilot that not only helps generate ideas, but also brings them to life. We hacked on v0 of Cracked in just 2 days. Check it out: https://cracked.studio/. We’d love to hear initial thoughts and ideas. We are tracking some of our favorite creations. Go take a look: https://imgur.com/a/lv89wgc! Join our waitlist to stay in touch as we embark on this journey — this is just the beginning! Kelly

@anirudh_rahul @keellylu this is super promising, I have been using Aftereffects to create these things. Would save hours if it does what it claims to be. Thanks for building, will definitely give it a go.

@anirudh_rahul @keellylu @anirudh_rahul @keellylu This seems like it would be useful for working on animations within an app! Thanks for creating it. One question: if working with vectors, is it possible to extract JSON as well

@anirudh_rahul @kellypoly Yup, totally possible. That's the beauty of vectors!

@anirudh_rahul @keellylu This is super exciting. Have always found it interesting how people had used stuff like Manim to code out amazing YT videos. But this will definitely be something much easier to use!! Looking forward to it

@anirudh_rahul @keellylu Congrats on launching Cracked! Love the idea of making motion graphics accessible with text prompts—AfterEffects is no joke, so this is a total game-changer. Can’t wait to see how this evolves. Good luck!

Endless motion graphics exploration! Love what has been built here. Hoping developer take note of how they can exploit it. Congratulation to the team involved on the YC and launch!!

@evan_paul Thanks Evan!

@keellylu this is sooo cool. This is basically Playground but for motions. Did you make the intro video with Cracked also?
kelly
Maker
@theonlymoyouknow Playground for motion is the vision 😎. Parts of it!
Mo
@keellylu great vision, love it! One other low-hanging fruit for you guys might be motion animations that people create in no-code website builders like Framer. I use Framer for my website, and it would be a game-changer if Framer had a motion composer or something like that. that would be the death of threejs 😅

Maker
@theonlymoyouknow This is a great idea!

@theonlymoyouknow Framer/Webflow are a great ICP for this, a lot of this was inspired by seeing how many animations those sorts of websites have!

Hi Kelly, Cracked sounds like a game-changer for the motion graphics industry! I love the idea of using text prompts to create animations. How detailed can the text descriptions get for generating animations?
Anirudh Rahul
Maker
@web3_antivirus Hey Alex, right now simple prompts work best, but it as able to some complex animation effects like squash/stretch on bounces!

Congrats on the launch! I'm no where related to anything graphics but this looks like a very good tool to me

Congratulations on the launch at PH! Out of curiosity, do you foresee the possibility of integration with, for example, some Visual Editor?
