# OpenDesigner: painted art and films

Use this when someone wants original art made by code rather than found art. Typical asks: a painted hero, a launch film or reel, an animated brand moment, a celebration loop, a painted link-preview image, or "something that looks hand-made, in our colours". It is also an answer for three designer hooks when the person has nothing:
- `H-motion`: a signature animation.
- `H-illus`: original illustration, when open-library art would read generic.
- `H-motif`: painted grounds and textures.

Everything is in this folder:
- **The bridge** (`scripts/paint.py`, Python standard library, offline). It reads the design system and writes a brief, a palette and rules. It scaffolds film projects, checks scenes, and brings finished work into the app with accessibility safeguards and a ledger.
- **The painting engine** (`engine/`, `styles/`, `scripts/new-film.sh`). It is vendored from generative-painting-skills (MIT, commit 1ff8212; `THIRD-PARTY.md` lists what changed). It plans shots, paints plates procedurally with p5.js and p5.brush, edits them with hard cuts, adds particle motion and a quiet score, and exports MP4, WAV and lossless PNG files that must pass automated checks.

Talk plainly: one idea and one question per message, and recommend one option with its reason. The first time a term appears, give its plain meaning plus "Designers: X · Code: Y" (`references/rules.md` in the opendesigner skill).

Run `paint.py` (`scripts/paint.py`) from the person's project root. Knowledge:
