Dooey Motion Machine

Make a real little video without a studio.

The Dooey Motion Kit turns a few lines of text into a polished, seamlessly-looping animated spot — the kind of 30-second piece a small brand needs and can't justify hiring out. You write the words; Dooey handles the motion, the timing, and the loop.

How it works. Every spot is three moves — an on-ramp (your open), a body (your point), and an off-ramp (your close). You edit one clearly-marked block of copy in the template, pick one of four styles, and you've got a spot. Long lines auto-shrink to fit; a built-in dark-beat makes every loop seamless.

What's in the kit. The hardened template (with the fit and loop fixes built in), four color styles, the fonts, a finished sample spot to learn from, a one-click browser preview, and the full render engine with step-by-step instructions. A copy of the Beta 5.2d Directed User Interface is included in this package.

Batteries — some assembly required. Editing and previewing need nothing but a web browser, and that runs on any everyday computer. Turning your spot into a shareable MP4 and GIF uses three free tools — Python, ffmpeg, and a headless browser — that you set up once. An included "doctor" checks your machine and installs what's missing. Everyday hardware renders these light spots comfortably; heavier computed work wants more horsepower and isn't part of this beta. If you're not comfortable running a couple of command-line steps, this beta will feel like a workbench you're setting up — that's the honest state of it.

This is the light beta. It's solid and dependable where it counts — the rendering — but it's hand-edited: the point-and-click style picker and slide builder aren't here yet, and a complete how-to booklet is still to come. You're getting the working core early, at a beta price, with the fuller version ahead.

Built under the Directed User Interface method. The rendering approach is documented in an open method paper (DOI on request).

This product bundle includes the Directed User Interface (DUI) that puts you in the driver's seat.
