What problem does it solve? Marketing teams struggle to turn an approved message into finished video without losing control of rights, likeness consent, brand assets, render costs, and publishing approvals. This Skill structures video planning and production so every gate — licensing, consent, cost, destination — is explicit rather than assumed. ## Core Features & Use Cases - Production approach selection: Chooses between programmatic rendering (HTML/CSS or React), AI generation, AI avatars, or editing/repurposing based on the job, rights, and currently authorized tools. - Scripting and storyboarding: Produces scripts, shot lists, asset manifests, beat sheets, captions, edit decision lists, and export settings, with a manual handoff format when no production tool is available. - Edit reverse-engineering: Decomposes a reference video into a reusable beat sheet and 3-5 signature style moves, copying editing grammar rather than the reference's footage, script, or music. - Use Case: You recorded a 60-minute webinar and need short social clips. The Skill walks the repurposing workflow — transcript cleanup, clip selection with timestamps, captions, platform styling — and returns approved export candidates for your channel strategy. ## Quick Start Use the suede-video skill to plan a 60-second product demo video for our homepage, including the script, shot list, and export settings.
