## Prompt that renders it frame-exact

Use Orbiting Items 3D from Animata (https://animata.design/docs/list/orbiting-items-3-d, MIT) around a product icon or logo in the centre of the frame, with partner or feature icons on the orbit. Each item advances one degree per setInterval tick and eases its position with CSS transitions, so the speed depends on timers. For a render, compute the angle from time, angle = startAngle + 360 * t / period, then apply the component's own maths (ellipse radiusX/radiusY, tiltAngle rotation, bigger scale and higher z-index on the front half) without transitions; t is frame / fps in Remotion or the timeline time in HyperFrames. Set radiusX, radiusY, tiltAngle, duration and the centre element.
