What happens in Marlo
Reminders pop on a phone and the pile bursts apart, the lens whips to the room and closes behind dark bars on a button that is pressed after a held breath; a marker draws one line, a ribbon is pulled out of a drawing and becomes the tail of a paper kite, and a white panel rises under the sky with what the course holds.
Then type alone, small and far larger than the frame, down to a stroke that draws the mark. Fifteen beats in twenty-eight seconds; two longer cuts add seven more (a week, the class, the teacher, feedback, a streak, a full sketchbook, the price) without repeating one.
Product demos show a product at work: the interface, the feature and what it gets done. The library lists 33 under product demos.

Questions about Marlo
How long is Marlo?
28 seconds as designed. The editor has two longer cuts too: Extended (about 37s) and Full length (about 44s). A longer cut adds beats of its own. Nothing is shown twice. The pace can be slowed too: Steady (about 20% longer) or Relaxed (about 45% longer).
Can I make Marlo vertical?
Yes. It comes in 16:9 landscape, 9:16 portrait, 1:1 square and 4:5 social. Switch between them in the editor before you render.
Can I use my own screenshots and video?
Yes. It has 12 places for them under Media, among them “What the tablet on the desk shows”, “Drawing 1 (on the board, the panel, the strip and in the sketchbook)” and “Drawing 2 (on the panel, the strip and in the sketchbook)”. It takes PNG, JPG, WebP, MP4 or WebM files.
