Author's description

Design and build the visual layer of a long-form talking-head video as one persistent world the camera moves through, instead of a sequence of separate graphics. Use when asked to edit a video, add motion graphics, design the visuals for a script, plan an edit, or fix an edit judged confusing, text-heavy, hard to follow, or "clearly made by an AI". Covers the persistent world, camera grammar, the spotlight rule, spatial open loops, ornament and token discipline, transcript timing, and the verification gates.

How to ask for it

  • Design the visuals for this talking-head video script
  • This edit feels flat and text-heavy, help me fix it
  • Plan the motion graphics for this long explainer video
