Motion Text MCP
An official MCP server for Motion Text that allows AI agents to programmatically create lyric videos, kinetic typography, and photo stories. It supports creating drafts, applying visual presets, managing scenes and timed text, and queuing MP4 renders via the same JSON model used by the human editor.

create_story_draft — Create story draft
Create a complete, editable lyric-video or story-video draft and get back an edit link for the user. Prefer script mode (one beat per line) unless exact timings are known. Drafts expire after 30 days unless the user saves them. Most ads use one or two effects for the whole piece. fade, rise and pop read as professional; scatter, slam and glitch read as novelty and get tiring past a line or two. Vary the type SIZE and the vertical POSITION between lines rather than the effect — that is what makes a piece look composed rather than captioned.

"description": "How the line animates in. fade: The whole line fades from transparent to opaque without moving; on a word-timed line each word fades in separately over 0.3s at its own start. rise: The line fades in while travelling 18px (at 1080p, or an exact `distance`) from the `direction` side — up by default, so it starts below and settles upward. pop: The line scales up from 70% to full size while fading in, overshooting slightly past 100% before settling; set `fromScale` above 1 to settle down into place instead. slide: The line fades in while travelling 64px (at 1080p, or an exact `distance`) from the `direction` side — left by default, so it enters from the right. blur: The line resolves from a 14px defocus to sharp while fading in, then holds perfectly sharp and still; entrance only, never per-word. typewriter: Types the line one CHARACTER at a time at a constant rate, left to right, over `revealDuration` (default: the caption minus its hold). word-reveal: Reveals the line one whole WORD at a time with no motion — chunkier and more legible than typing; use `typewriter` for character-by-character. karaoke: The full line is visible from the first frame and the accent colour sweeps continuously through it, left to right, following measured word timings when the line has them. cascade: Words rise 18px and fade in one after another, 0.3s each and `stagger` (default 0.06s) apart, then hold still — a one-time ripple entrance, not a repeating wave. scatter: Breaks the line into separate words placed around the anchor at seeded offsets, tilts and sizes, each stamping in over 0.34s from 35% size; a lyric-card collage, best on 2–5 word lines. beat: The line snaps 5.5% larger on each detected music beat (9% on downbeats) and springs back within about a quarter second; with no beat grid it ticks steadily every 0.75s. breathe: The line oscillates smoothly and continuously between 97.5% and 102.5% scale, twice a second by default (`breathePeriod`), for as long as it is on screen. float: Each word drifts continuously in a slow figure-eight of about 4px vertically and 2px horizontally on a 2.2s loop, out of phase with its neighbours. slam: The line arrives at 190% size and accelerates down to full size in under 0.25s; set `fromScale` below 1 to punch UP from small instead, and `wobble` above 0 to add a decaying rattle. glitch: After the normal fade-in the line tears in 80ms bursts about a third of the time — red/cyan copies offset up to 6px plus a small jitter — for as long as it is on screen."
