What problem does it solve? Turning hours of raw recordings into polished short-form videos requires tedious manual cutting, structuring, and reformatting. This Skill provides a layered AI-assisted workflow that compresses, structures, and augments real footage instead of generating video from prompts. ## Core Features & Use Cases - Structured Editing Pipeline: Organize footage with Claude/Codex, cut deterministically with FFmpeg, compose overlays with Remotion, generate voiceover and music with ElevenLabs/fal.ai, and polish in Descript or CapCut. - Batch Cutting and Scene Detection: Use FFmpeg commands for timestamp extraction, concatenation, silence detection, and scene-change detection to auto-cut dead air. - Social Media Reframing: Convert 16:9 footage to 9:16 or 1:1 for TikTok, Reels, and Instagram using FFmpeg crops or VideoDB smart reframing. - Use Case: Given a 4-hour screen recording, have Claude identify the 8 strongest segments, generate FFmpeg cut commands, assemble a 24-minute vlog, add Remotion title overlays, and export vertical clips for social platforms. ## Quick Start Ask the AI to analyze your raw footage transcript and generate FFmpeg cut commands for the strongest segments of your video.
