What it does

Ask an AI video tool for "a woman making a drink while she talks" and you get one long, flat shot: same distance, same angle, a face that only looks, a product that appears from nowhere halfway through. Viewers scroll past a picture that doesn't change, and the tool fills empty seconds with invented movement. This skill runs the last stage of making a video, after your avatar, sheets and storyboard are approved. If they're missing for an AI video, it asks once, then writes its own lock lines for you to approve and uses them word for word, so no face gets made up fresh inside a clip. Then it plans each clip like a director. It opens mid-action, and at every cut it moves the camera at least 30 degrees and changes the shot size, because changing only one reads as a jump. Each shot has one action,…

You give it

The approved script or voice-over lines
What you sell, how it's used and a real photo (product, app screen or packaging; attach it, your AI can see pictures)
The approved avatar card, sheets, lock lines and storyboard, for AI video
Your brand's places, light and what never to show (optional)
The pace, the look and your tool's clip length (optional, normal and 8 seconds by default)
A character sheet (optional)

You get

A clip plan and a film plan for each clip
A shot table per clip with timings, size, camera position, move and one action, for your approval
Start and end frame prompts and clip prompts that describe only the motion
A voice plan and an edit list with captions, music and the end card
Any of its own checks the shot list couldn't pass, named one per line

Use it when

Your storyboard is approved and you need clips that don't look like one long static shot.
Your AI clips keep inventing objects mid-shot or showing the product the wrong way.
You want to brief a real film crew with exact shot sizes, angles and timings.

How to use it

Start a chat with the skill. Open it if you added it to your AI, or copy it and paste it in.
Paste the approved script. For AI video, attach the approved storyboard, sheets and lock lines from the storyboard skill.
Add what you sell, how it's used and a product photo. Say the pace, the look and your tool's clip length.
Approve the shot tables, then make two or three takes of each clip from its prompt and pick the best.
Cut the clips together with the edit list, and check the timings in the finished video.
