Apple Music's Album Motion Artwork is one of the platform's most striking visual features, allowing you to showcase an animated loop based on your cover art on supported iOS, macOS, and smart TV devices.
📐 Technical Guidelines & Requirements:
- Native 3:4 Aspect Ratio: You must provide native 3:4 vertical motion art. Do not crop or recycle a square 1:1 video inside the safe area.
- Seamless Loop: The animation transition must be continuous and imperceptible.
- Visual Consistency: Avoid extra characters, scenes, or graphics that are not part of the original album cover art.
- Video Codec: The file must be exported using the H.264 codec.
