A Dynamic Wallpaper is a special JSON-based wallpaper format for moving wallpapers. A dynamic wallpaper file (DWP) is a JSON object with the properties `name`, `author`, `url`, and `properties` properties (sounds weird to say "properties properties"). Dynamic Wallpapers were introduced with the release of Windows 96 v2 Service Pack 1.
This is the contents of the DWP file for the Cloud Animated wallpaper:

"properties": {}
}
