Breaking News Maker launches

• Animated breaking-news parody videos: typewriter headline reveal, scrolling ticker, pulsing LIVE badge, ticking clock and an editable channel bug — exported as 8-second, 60fps MP4 (WebM fallback) or PNG.
• Five original broadcast station styles: Classic Red and Network (free), plus Cable 24/7, Markets and Retro 80s (Pro). No real network branding, on purpose.
• Custom station builder (Pro): your own colors and banner text for a station that's entirely yours.
• Photo backdrops with a newsroom-style Ken Burns push-in on every plan; video-clip backdrops up to 80MB with Pro.
• Synthesized breaking-news intro sting — original audio, no network samples — baked into the export; custom soundtrack upload with automatic ducking under the sting (Pro).
• Three formats: 9:16 for TikTok and Reels, 16:9 at 1920×1080 for YouTube and X, and 1:1 square.
• Everything renders client-side in your browser — your media and headlines never leave your device.
• Plans: free accounts (Google sign-in) get 3 exports a month at 720p with a small watermark; Pro is $4.99/month via PayPal for unlimited 1080p exports with no watermark, video backdrops, soundtracks, every style plus the custom station, and priority support. The editor is free to try without an account.
