Finding Lottie files to use

LottieFiles is a website where people can share and download Lottie files.



If you find a file that you like, click on it, then click Download

1
and choose Lottie JSON
2
as the format.

Import the file into Remotion​

Copy the file into the Remotion project. The recommended way is to put the JSON inside the public/ folder of Remotion (create it if necessary) and then load it using staticFile():

Animation.tsx
import {Lottie, LottieAnimationData} from '@remotion/lottie';
import {useEffect, useState} from 'react';
import {cancelRender, continueRender, delayRender, staticFile} from 'remotion';

const Balloons = () => {
  const [handle] = useState(() => delayRender('Loading Lottie animation'));

  const [animationData, setAnimationData] = useState<LottieAnimationData | null>(null);

  useEffect(() => {
    fetch(staticFile('animation.json'))
      .then((data) => data.json())
      .then((json) => {
        setAnimationData(json);
        continueRender(handle);
      })
      .catch((err) => {
        cancelRender(err);
      });
  }, [handle]);

  if (!animationData) {
    return null;
  }

  return <Lottie animationData={animationData} />;
};
