About this skill

You say

Split a beach photo: "Original" and "Graded" with a vivid grade.

It said back

I made the split clip. A divider sweeps across the photo and settles in the middle, with "Original" on the left and "Graded" on the right. The check frame had no layout warnings, and both labels are readable and uncut.

  • Video: launch-scene/grading-split.mp4, 4.9 s, 1920×1080 (16:9), 30 fps, 152 KB.
  • Photo: photos/1-sea.jpg, the sunset over the sea. I picked it as the closest thing to a beach in the folder. It's the only horizon-and-sun shot, and 5-dunes.jpg may be desert, though I didn't open it. If you meant a different photo, tell me and I'll re-render.
  • Grade: vivid, which gives a more saturated orange sky and a deeper blue sea.
  • Look: swiss, with a plain off-white background and a red square. You didn't name a style or brand colour, so I used the default accent.
  • Brand: I left out the logo, name and URL since you didn't give any, and I didn't assume logo.svg was meant for this.
