Hundreds of soft white spheres jostling and bouncing around the frame like a zero-gravity ball pit

Prompt that renders it frame-exact
Use Ballpit from React Bits (https://reactbits.dev/backgrounds/ballpit, MIT + Commons Clause: fine for rendered video). Install with npx shadcn@latest add @react-bits/Ballpit-JS-CSS and use it full-frame for playful brand intros, or as a ball drop behind a headline. Set count (100–300), colors from the brand palette, material ('gloss', 'satin', 'metal', and so on), gravity, and minSize/maxSize. It is a physics simulation stepped by the requestAnimationFrame delta. Step it with a fixed dt of 1/fps per frame from a fixed seed, render frames in order, and turn off followCursor, grab and clickEffect. Keep intro only if the drop-in should be part of the shot.
