Adds a bar chart to a talking-head video in which one bar, the one they point to, is stressed in the accent while the others stay plain. 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 several amounts but one is the point (the busiest day, the cheapest option, the winner).

About this skill

You say

In talk.mp4 show bars for the costs and stress the 600 hours.

It said back

I've added the bars to talk.mp4 and rendered the result as talk-graphics.mp4, a 1920x1080 video, 24.3 s long. The layout check found no problems, and I looked at the settled frame before rendering.

  • Timing: one beat, from 3.4 s to 9.8 s, starting on "First, the cost". It sits on the left half, with the speaker on the right.
  • Bars: each bar grows as she says its words.
  • "12 people" gives People: 12.
  • "1 hour" gives Hour each Monday: 1 h.
  • "600 hours" gives Hours a year: 600 h.
  • Emphasis: the 600 h bar is the only one in the red accent, and it runs the full width. The other two stay plain grey.
  • Title: "The cost of status meetings".
  • Look: paper, with the default tomato accent.
  • Scale: the bars share one scale, so the 12 and the 1 h are barely visible next to 600 h. The three numbers are in different units (people, hours, hours a year), so they aren't a like-for-like comparison. That does stress the 600.
  • Sound: it is hers, unchanged.
