About this icon

Animation

text "STARTING" blurs progressively from middle-top to top-right frames; character remains static across all six sampled frames but is only visible in the bottom-right frame

Animation Summary

Six-frame animation showing progressive blurring of the word "STARTING" across frames from left to right, with a static running character only visible in the bottom-right frame

Composition

3x2 contact sheet with film strip borders on left and right edges of each frame; text elements occupy central areas while character appears in bottom-right frame

Dense Caption

The image is a contact sheet displaying six frames from an animated icon arranged in a 3x2 grid. Each frame has black-and-white film strip borders on the left and right edges. The background of all frames is solid blue except for the bottom-right frame, which contains a pixelated character against a dark background with yellow accents. In the top-left frame, large white text reads "THE" above smaller light-blue text reading "STARTING." The middle-top frame shows light-blue text "STARTING" angled diagonally across the blue background. The top-right frame displays light-blue text "STARTING" also angled diagonally but slightly more blurred than the middle-top frame. The bottom-left frame repeats the layout of the top-left with large white text "THE" above smaller light-blue text "STARTING." The middle-bottom frame features large white text "LINE" centered on the blue background, while the bottom-right frame shows a pixelated character in motion: a figure with dark hair and clothing appears to be running or lunging forward with one arm raised. The animation sequence progresses from left-to-right across each row, showing gradual blurring of the word "STARTING" as it moves toward the rightmost frames. All text uses a blocky, pixelated font consistent with early digital graphics. The character in the bottom-right frame has visible facial features including eyes and mouth, rendered in low-resolution pixels. Film strip borders are present on all six frames but do not contain any additional visual elements beyond their standard perforation pattern.
