# Sine Wave Ribbon Text: motion graphics style

> Stacked satin ribbons printed with the repeated word ripple on phase-shifted sine waves, like a field of flags in the wind, around one large hero ribbon. A classic kinetic-type loop for music visuals, event openers and banners.

## Prompt (replace [TEXT] with your text)

```text
Fill the frame with a stack of horizontal satin ribbons, each printed edge to edge with [TEXT] repeated in a wide geometric bold sans, staggered like brickwork. One taller cream ribbon in the middle carries [TEXT] alone, huge and dark. Every ribbon undulates on a slow sine wave traveling left to right, with the phase shifted a little from one ribbon to the next so the whole field ripples diagonally like flags in wind; letters bend with the cloth, compress on the slopes and the ribbon thickness breathes slightly. Shade it like satin: bright highlight on crests, darker troughs. Ribbon colors run from deep blue through violet and magenta to coral and amber over a near-black indigo background. Gusts swell and calm on a seamless loop.

## Visual DNA

- Nine horizontal ribbons, each printed with the repeated word
- Every ribbon follows its own phase-shifted sine wave
- Satin shading: crests catch a highlight, troughs fall into shadow
- Cool-to-warm ribbon gradient around a cream hero ribbon
- Gusts swell and calm on a seamless loop
