SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

What problem does it solve? When asked to recreate the look and pacing of a specific reference film or website in the Vawe engine, it is easy to copy literal pixels, brand marks, or copy, which is both a taste failure and a rights problem. This Skill provides the discipline and workflow for extracting only the transferable grammar (pacing, cut rate, devices, ground tone) and rebuilding it with original content. ## Core Features & Use Cases - Machine-assisted reference study: Runs make study VIDEO=refs/ref.mp4 NAME=ref to measure shot lengths, ground patterns, motion curves, and threads, writing a committed grammar file at grammar/<name>.json. - Site reference capture: Uses make sections URL=<site> NAME=<name> plus make palette for website references, without committing captured frames. - Honesty-first authoring: Requires naming upfront what cannot be matched (licensed fonts, captured products) and scaffolding a replaceable skeleton via make scaffold TYPE=recreation. - Use Case: Given a Framer-style hero video, study its grammar, then author an 11-second 16:9 scene where a prompt types, an artefact builds beside it with no hard cut, and the same artefact is later shown from three viewports, using invented generic content. ## Quick Start Study the reference film at refs/ref.mp4 and then scaffold a recreation scene JSON that follows its measured grammar with original generic content.

FAQPage Schema
How do I recreate a reference video's style in Vawe?

Run make study VIDEO=refs/ref.mp4 NAME=ref to measure the reference's shot lengths, ground pattern, and motion curve into grammar/<name>.json. Then scaffold with make scaffold TYPE=recreation and replace the generic skeleton with the studied shape using your own content.

How do I recreate a website's look as a video scene?

Use make sections URL=<site> NAME=<name> followed by make palette to capture the site's structure and colors. Never commit captured screenshots or frames; only the derived grammar and palette artifacts are kept.

Can I copy frames or brand assets from the reference video?

No. The recreation discipline takes only the grammar: pacing, cut rate, devices, and tone. Literal pixels, wordmarks, and verbatim copy are forbidden by the repo's asset rules, and refs/ is gitignored so source frames are never committed.

Why does the recreation scaffold not use a continuous-action spine?

type-spines.mjs declares continuousObject: null for recreation because the studied source may or may not be a continuous action. Forcing one shape before studying the reference would misrepresent its actual structure, so study always comes first.

What are the limitations of recreating a reference film?

Elements under licence or rights restrictions, such as commercial fonts or captured third-party products, cannot be matched exactly. The workflow requires an honesty check naming these gaps before authoring, not after a render reveals them.
