create-end-card-ffmpeg

What problem does it solve?

This Skill streamlines the creation of static end cards using ffmpeg, eliminating the need for complex motion graphics or web-style layouts, and offering a quick, deterministic solution for video content.

Core Features & Use Cases

• ffmpeg-based Composition: Utilizes ffmpeg's drawtext and overlay filters for a deterministic fade-in effect, ideal for static end cards.
• Input Flexibility: Handles backdrop images, text lines, optional logo, and supports color adjustments and brightness offset.
• Use Case: Ideal for scenarios where a clean fade-in end card is needed without additional motion graphics or interactive elements, such as after scenes in video content.

Quick Start

To create an end card using the provided images, text, and logo, execute the command: python create_end_card.py --backdrop "end-card-bg.png" --text-lines "[{\"text\":\"YOUR MESSAGE\",\"fade_in_start_s\":5,\"fade_in_duration_s\":2,\"font_size\":60,\"y_offset_from_bottom\":50}, {\"text\":\"Visit our site\",\"fade_in_start_s\":10,\"fade_in_duration_s\":2,\"font_size\":40,\"y_offset_from_bottom\":30}]" --logo "logo.png" --duration 6 --width 1920 --height 1080 --output "end-card.mp4" --font "/usr/share/fonts/truetype/dejavu/DejaVu-Sans-Bold.ttf" --backdrop_dim -0.2
