A Reel and a Video from one Map
The Reel is upright, the size Instagram Reels, TikTok and YouTube Shorts play. The Video is wide, for YouTube. Both come from the same Map, so they show the same trip in the same time.

Every leg, with its vehicle
Each leg keeps how you travelled it, and a vehicle rides it in the clip, turning with the route. It can be drawn flat in the style’s colours, or modelled in 3D. Here the Singapore to Chiang Rai example goes by train, minivan, ferry and plane, then by bike.
Train
Rides the rails, drawn in the style’s mark for a railway.
Car
Follows the roads between your stops. Drag a leg to send it another way.
Ferry
Crosses the water on a straight line, or the course you draw.
Plane
Flies an arc over land and sea.
Bike, on foot
A rider or a walker, along the paths.
The same Map, standing still
Every Map also exports as stills, such as a poster for the wall, a post and a story, each laid out again for its shape.
