Procedural motion should be deterministic enough to review and flexible enough to tune. Seed, density, bounds, and ownership matter as much as the visual idea.

Where this fits

• Faster Motion docs map shows the full documentation structure.
• Faster Motion documentation overview explains the high-level surfaces and reading order.
• Debugging and preflight explains validation before publish.

Procedural inputs

• Use time, scroll, pointer, random seeds, noise, oscillators, and data sources as inputs to generated motion.
• Separate generation parameters from presentation parameters so density, scale, color, and movement can be tuned independently.
• Prefer named seeds or stable random inputs when the art direction must remain repeatable between reviews.

Distributions and fields

• Distribution nodes place repeated instances along grids, paths, circles, random layouts, or other generated patterns.
• Field nodes can attract, repel, bend, or otherwise influence repeated objects or particles.
• Keep bounds visible during development so generated points do not drift outside the frame or interaction region.

Review controls

• Expose only the parameters that a reviewer needs: density, seed, speed, amplitude, color set, falloff, and bounds.
• Use validation and screenshot checks to catch blank frames, offscreen generated objects, or values that explode over time.
• Reduce procedural complexity on smaller surfaces when the visual detail would not be perceptible.

Working sample slot

Procedural geometry and fields: This page reserves a sample location for a later verified example. Add the sample only after the source file, public page, validation output, and visual check all pass.
