Still Film Player

MediaInteractionAnimation

A film made of photographs: stills cross-fade with a slow push-in, captions rise on every cut, and a real player bar offers play and pause, elapsed time and a draggable progress track.

Paste it into Claude Code: it installs the component, asks for your brand and content, and places it on the page you name.

Install

Or by hand, in a Next.js project with shadcn set up. It writes components/pastetaste/still-film-player.tsx.

npx shadcn@latest add https://pastetaste.com/r/still-film-player.json

Prompt

Install the pastetaste component "Still Film Player" (still-film-player) into this Next.js project and use it.

What it is: A film made of photographs: stills cross-fade with a slow push-in, captions rise on every cut, and a real player bar offers play and pause, elapsed time and a draggable progress track.

Before you place it, ask me (one short message, in my language; "skip" = sensible default): which page and section it goes in, my brand colour (hex), the text, labels or images it should show, and whether I want my logo or my own copy in the demo content. Then:

Steps:
1. If the project has no components.json, run: npx shadcn@latest init -y -d. Then run: npx shadcn@latest add https://pastetaste.com/r/still-film-player.json
   (it writes components/pastetaste/still-film-player.tsx; install any npm packages it reports).
2. Import it: import { StillFilmPlayer } from "@/components/pastetaste/still-film-player" (check the file for the exact named export).
3. Put it where it fits on the page I name, keep the rest of the page untouched, and pass props for my colours instead of editing the installed file.
4. It does not depend on Tailwind; colours come from CSS variables (--pt-*) or props.
5. It supports prefers-reduced-motion with a still state; do not remove it.

Props (all optional unless the type has no default):
- stills: FilmStill[] — { src, kicker?, caption?, alt? } per still.
- seconds: number = 3.4 — Seconds per still.
- loader: number = 1100 — Milliseconds of loader before it starts; 0 skips it.
- autoplay: boolean = true — Start playing automatically.
- brand / title: string — Mark in the top-left and the line in the top bar.
- label: string = 'Photo film' — Accessible name of the player.
- className / style: string / CSSProperties — On the root; it fills its parent's height (min 360 px).

Then run the dev server, check it in the browser at desktop and mobile width, and tell me the page URL.
