Cards With One in Focus

Cards land in a row, then the one that matters is stressed and the others fade.

$9.99once, yours to keep

Adds a row of cards to a talking-head video, then stresses the one they pick while the others fade back: the options, then the choice. Timed to the words they say, on their own footage, with their sound kept; 16:9, 9:16, 1:1 or 4:5. Renders locally with Chrome and ffmpeg: no video model, no key and no cost. Use when someone compares a few options and picks one.

About this skill

You say

In talk.mp4 show the three things we tried as cards and focus the 15-minute call.

It said back

I rendered talk-graphics.mp4 (1920x1080, 24.3 s, 30 fps) next to talk.mp4. The sound is the original, unchanged.

  • Cards: one beat, shown full-frame from 11.2 s to 23.2 s under the title "Three things we tried". The three cards appear as you say them:
  • "Written updates, on Friday", cued on "Written updates on Friday".
  • "One shared board", cued on "one shared board".
  • "15-minute call, only when something is stuck", cued on "15-minute call".
  • Focus: once all three are in, the 15-minute call card grows with the accent ring and the other two fade back. It stays that way until "nobody missed".
  • Look: paper, the warm off-white style with a tomato accent. I didn't change the colour.
  • Face: you're alone on screen for the first 11 s, which is about 46% of the video. I set the face position to [50, 32] without running --face, so I haven't confirmed it on a frame.
  • Check: --check reported no warnings, and I looked at the settled frame in overlay-check.png.
