What this skill does
- 1Takes product name and description, then derives tagline, problem statement, proof stat, and CTA if not provided, computing precise millisecond timing for all 5 sections.
- 2Builds a 5-section narrative arc — Tease (word-by-word problem beats), Build (terminal card sequence), Reveal (product name materialise), Proof (stat counter), CTA — at 30, 60, or 90 seconds.
- 3Generates HTML with film grain, vignette, and light leak cinematic overlays using a renderFrame function called once per frame by Playwright, no CSS keyframe animations.
- 4Synthesizes all sound effects natively via FFmpeg (sub punches, typewriter sequences, reveal boom, CTA chime) timed to exact millisecond offsets without external audio files.
When to use
- You are launching a product and need a cinematic announcement video that creates tension and a earned reveal moment.
- You want a launch video with real sound design and motion without paying for Runway or a production agency.
- You need a 30-90 second narrative video for Product Hunt, your website, or an investor deck.
