Prompt that renders it frame-exact

Use Retro Grid from Magic UI (https://magicui.design/docs/components/retro-grid, MIT) as the floor of a full-frame background with a title above the horizon. It is a WebGL shader with a u_time uniform that requestAnimationFrame feeds from the clock, plus a CSS scroll as a fallback. For a render, set u_time from the composition (frame / fps in Remotion, the paused timeline's time in HyperFrames) and draw once per frame. Set angle (tilt), cellSize, opacity and the light and dark line colours from the brand; a neon gradient headline above it is the classic look.
