Individual skill

video-shortform

Short-form video generation skill — 3-10 second clips for product reveals, motion teasers, ambient loops. Defaults to Seedance 2 but works the same with Kling 3 / 4, Veo 3 or Sora 2. Output is one MP4 saved to the project folder. When the workspace also ships an interactive-video / hyperframes skill, prefer composing several short shots into a single timeline rather than one long monolithic clip.

# Video Shortform Skill

Short-form (≤ 10s) is the sweet spot for current text-to-video models —
they're great at one **shot** with one **idea**, weaker at multi-cut
narratives. Plan one shot per call.

Special case: `hyperframes-html` is **not** a photoreal text-to-video
model. It's a local HTML-to-MP4 renderer. For that model, do not roleplay
cinematography or "real-world" camera physics. Treat the brief as a motion
design card / title-frame / product interstitial, ask at most one
clarifying question, then dispatch immediately.
