SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

💡 This Skill requires remotion, vitest, pyJianYingDraft, and includes scripts (resource) and references (resource) and assets (resource) components.

What problem does it solve? Producing a polished product promo video normally requires motion-design expertise, manual storyboarding, and sound design. This Skill turns an AI agent into a motion-design studio that storyboards, animates, and sound-designs a cinematic promo, launch, or demo video from your product's real pages. ## Core Features & Use Cases - 157 shot recipe cards with Remotion implementations: Each card documents purpose, energy, timing, easing parameters, and known pitfalls, backed by tuned TSX demo code and 214 browsable motion previews in an online Gallery. - Validated Ink Press template: A complete 36.2-second, 1920x1080, 30fps promo with 10 shots, 2.5D page camera moves, captions, and film-grade SFX that the agent re-skins with your product's screenshots and branding. - Full production pipeline: Real page capture via headless browser, beat-synced cuts to BGM, 149 categorized SFX, deterministic rendering, independent final QA review, plus post-delivery editing via a browser motion workbench or JianYing (CapCut CN) project export. - Use Case: Point the agent at your web app's local dev server and ask for a launch promo; it captures real page screenshots, maps features to shot cards, renders the video with Remotion, and delivers versions with and without BGM. ## Quick Start Use video-shotcraft to create a promo video for my product using the Ink Press template.

Frequently Asked Questions about video-shotcraft

High-intent search queries and answers about installing and using this skill.

FAQPage Schema
How do I create a product promo video with an AI agent?

Install the skill by giving your agent the repository link or running npx skills add Vincentwei1021/video-shotcraft, then ask it to make a promo for your product. The agent captures real page screenshots, storyboards shots from recipe cards, and renders the video with Remotion.

How do I use the Ink Press video template?

Tell your agent to use video-shotcraft with the Ink Press template for your product. The agent reads template/TEMPLATE.md and swaps in your product's screenshots, copy, and branding while keeping the validated 10-shot structure, timing, and sound design.

What is a shot recipe card in video-shotcraft?

A shot recipe card documents one motion technique: its purpose, energy, suggested duration, parameters, implementation notes, and known pitfalls. Each card links to a tuned Remotion TSX demo and a motion preview you can browse in the online Gallery.

Why does Remotion rendering fail on a headless Linux server?

Low-core machines hit a concurrency cap, fixed with --concurrency=1. Recent Chrome removed old headless mode, so use a chrome-headless-shell binary, and if the CDN is blocked pass --browser-executable with a local binary path.

Can I edit the finished video after delivery?

Yes. The skill opens a browser motion workbench that splits the film into shot, transition, caption, and SFX tracks for editing copy, colors, timing, and re-export via Remotion. It can also export a JianYing (CapCut CN) draft project.

Does video-shotcraft work with narration or voiceover videos?

This skill targets product promos without narration. For voiceover-driven videos, the companion skill video-talkcraft aligns motion beats to word-level timestamps from a finished voiceover recording.
