## How can I make a short release update video with animated bullet points for each new feature?

In Tella, add a [Tella Motion](https://www.tella.com/help/editing/tella-motion) clip and ask the [Tella Agent](https://www.tella.com/agent) for a title, one bullet per new feature, colors and how each bullet animates in. The agent builds it while you watch. Ask for changes, such as a bigger title or slower bullets, until it looks right.

Build this Tella Motion clip as a 10-second release update. Dark navy background, title 'What's new in March' at the top. Bring in three bullets about two seconds apart, each sliding in from the left: 'Faster search', 'Dark mode for the dashboard', 'CSV export for reports'.

## Good to know

- Needs a paid plan or the 7-day trial. Messages use your workspace's credits.
- A new Tella Motion clip starts blank, runs 10 seconds and is added at the end of your video.
- A Tella Motion clip has no transcript, layouts or cuts. Only Setup, Library and Overlay work in its toolbar.
- Overlays you add on top of a Tella Motion clip appear above the animation when shared or exported.

## Questions people ask

### Can the bullets play over my recording instead of in a separate clip?

Yes. Ask the Tella Agent to add a Tella Motion overlay or b-roll to a recorded clip. It plays over or in place of your recording, timed to what you say.

### Can Claude or ChatGPT make the release video through Tella's MCP server?

Yes. Through Tella's [MCP server](https://www.tella.com/mcp), a connected AI app can add a Tella Motion clip with create_clip, build the title and animated text with apply_motion_editor_commands, and check the result with get_clip_frame.

### Can I reuse the same design for the next release?

Yes. In Tella, duplicate the Tella Motion clip from its menu in the clip list, then ask the Tella Agent to change the bullets.
