Animated Inventory

Short motion tests for real display sizes.

Each unit uses one concept-specific motion system and stops within the real display-ad animation window. The last frame still has to work as a static ad.

01

Finite CSS motion only. No endless loops, no sound, no layout shifts.

02

Animate the proof, not every object. One movement should carry the notice.

03

Design every size separately so the 320x50 does not inherit a billboard idea.
