Linear 2020.12 release
Linear · Dec 2020 · 0:22
A beat-locked release montage: a gradient wordmark and glowing logo open on black, then a rapid run of feature callouts where a dark UI window scales in over a pink-to-blue gradient as a bold white word snaps into focus. Cuts average about 16 per minute, with scale-in, blur-to-focus and split-panel moves, closing on the app icon and URL.
