## What it does

Built on [Oversized Cursor](https://github.com/heygen-com/hyperframes/tree/main/registry/components/oversized-cursor) by HeyGen (HyperFrames), Apache-2.0. The write-up and recipes below are varg's.

A crisp, oversized pointer with a soft shadow enters from off-frame in one arc, presses with a small squash, and leaves.

**When:** Launch films where the cursor is a character guiding the eye, especially on mocked UI.

**Watch out:** Do not use a tiny system cursor in a 1080p film; it disappears on phones.

**Timing:** Entry 0.4–0.9 s power3.out; press scale 0.84 in 0.1 s, release 0.22 s; exit 0.5–0.7 s power2.in.

**Also called:** big cursor, hero pointer, guide cursor

### In HyperFrames

```bash
npx hyperframes add oversized-cursor
```
```js
tl.fromTo("#cur",{top:"118%"},{top:"42%",left:"61%",duration:0.85,ease:"power3.out",immediateRender:false},0.25)
  .to("#cur",{scale:0.84,duration:0.1,ease:"power2.in",transformOrigin:"21% 14%"},1.2)
  .to("#cur",{scale:1,duration:0.22,ease:"power2.out"},1.3);
```

### In Remotion

```tsx
// npx shadcn@latest add @remocn/simulated-cursor
<Img src={arrow} style={{width:'7cqw', transform:`translate(${x}px,${y}px) scale(${press})`}}/>
```

### In CapCut

Stickers → search "cursor"/"mouse", scale it up ~3×, keyframe Position along the path with ease-out; add a click SFX.
