# Slit-Scan Light Corridor: motion graphics style

> A slit-scan tunnel text animation: streaks of colored light stretch past the camera along four walls as the word emerges from the glowing vanishing point. Recreates the optical time-tunnel of late-60s film for sci-fi intros and transitions.

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

```text
Build a slit-scan light corridor for [TEXT]. The camera rushes down a square tunnel whose four walls are made of long, thin streaks of colored light (saturated orange, magenta, cyan, violet, a little green) on black, all converging to a white-hot glowing vanishing point in the center and flowing outward past the edges of the frame. Streaks are dashed at different lengths so the motion reads, and fade into haze near the center. [TEXT] emerges from the vanishing point in a wide bold geometric sans, white with a colored glow, zooming up with radial blur trails, then holds large in the middle with a dark halo behind it while the corridor keeps flowing. Finally it flies past the camera and a new tunnel cycle begins; loop every 7 seconds.
```

## Visual DNA

- Four-walled corridor of long light streaks converging on one point
- Saturated orange, magenta, cyan and violet bands on black
- Streaks rush outward, brightest and sharpest near the frame edges
- Word grows out of a white-hot vanishing point with zoom-blur trails
- Darkened halo behind the letters keeps them readable
