Use <Sequence> to delay when an element appears in the timeline.

const Main = () => {
  return (
    <AbsoluteFill>
      <Background />
      <AbsoluteFill>
        <Sequence name="Title" from={30} durationInFrames={60} layout="none">
          <Title />
        </Sequence>
        <Sequence name="Subtitle" from={60} durationInFrames={60} layout="none">
          <Subtitle />
        </Sequence>
      </AbsoluteFill>
    </AbsoluteFill>
  );
}

export const Title = () => {
  const frame = useCurrentFrame();

  return (
    <Interactive.Div
      name="Label"
      style={{
        opacity: interpolate(frame, [0, 60], [0, 1], {
          extrapolateRight: "clamp",
          extrapolateLeft: "clamp",
          easing: Easing.bezier(0.16, 1, 0.3, 1),
        }),
        fontSize: 88
      }}
    >
      Title
    </Interactive.Div>
  );
};

export const Subtitle = () => {
  const frame = useCurrentFrame();

  return (
    <Interactive.Div
      name="Subtitle"
      style={{
        opacity: interpolate(frame, [0, 60], [0, 1], {
          extrapolateRight: "clamp",
          extrapolateLeft: "clamp",
          easing: Easing.bezier(0.16, 1, 0.3, 1),
        }),
        fontSize: 32
      }}
    >
      Subtitle
    </Interactive.Div>
  );
};

This will by default wrap the component in an absolute fill element.
If the items should not be wrapped, use the layout prop:

<Sequence layout="none">
  <Title />
</Sequence>

Premounting

This loads the component in the timeline before it is actually played.
Always premount any <Sequence>!

<Sequence premountFor={1 * fps}>
  <Title />
</Sequence>

Series

Use <Series> when elements should play one after another without overlap.

import { Series } from "remotion";

<Series>
  <Series.Sequence durationInFrames={45}>
    <Intro />
  </Series.Sequence>
  <Series.Sequence durationInFrames={60}>
    <MainContent />
  </Series.Sequence>
  <Series.Sequence durationInFrames={30}>
    <Outro />
  </Series.Sequence>
</Series>;

Same as with <Sequence>, the items will be wrapped in an absolute fill element by default when using <Series.Sequence>, unless the layout prop is set to none.

Series with overlaps

Use negative offset for overlapping sequences:

<Series>
  <Series.Sequence durationInFrames={60}>
    <SceneA />
  </Series.Sequence>
  <Series.Sequence offset={-15} durationInFrames={60}>
    {/* Starts 15 frames before SceneA ends */}
    <SceneB />
  </Series.Sequence>
</Series>

Frame References Inside Sequences

Inside a Sequence, useCurrentFrame() returns the local frame (starting from 0):

<Sequence from={60} durationInFrames={30}>
  <MyComponent />
  {/* Inside MyComponent, useCurrentFrame() returns 0-29, not 60-89 */}
</Sequence>

Nested Sequences

Sequences can be nested for complex timing:

<Sequence from={0} durationInFrames={120}>
  <Background />
  <Sequence from={15} durationInFrames={90} layout="none">
    <Title />
  </Sequence>
  <Sequence from={45} durationInFrames={60} layout="none">
    <Subtitle />
  </Sequence>
</Sequence>

Nesting compositions within another

To add a composition within another composition, you can use the <Sequence> component with a width, height, durationInFrames prop to specify the size of the composition.
This will override the values of useVideoConfig() when calling inside that component.

<AbsoluteFill>
  <Sequence width={500} height={500} durationInFrames={100} from={30}>
    <CompositionComponent />
  </Sequence>
</AbsoluteFill>
