Adds a profile card beside a speaker, like a file on a person: name, role, a photo they gave, facts that fill in as said and a stamp at the end. 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 introduces a person (a guest, a hire, a customer story).

About this skill

You say

In talk.mp4, at the start, show a profile card of our team lead: Dana Reyes, Head of Operations, a team of 12. These are my own numbers and words, put them on screen as they are.

It said back

The profile card is on screen at the start of the video, saved as talk-graphics.mp4. It is 1920×1080, 24.3 s, 30 fps. The sound is the original, unchanged.

  • Card: a "Team lead" tab, the name Dana Reyes, the role Head of Operations, and one fact row, Team: 12. I used your wording as given.
  • Timing: it slides in at 0.3 s and stays until 8.3 s, with Dana moved to the right half of the frame. The "12" row fills in at 3.5 s, when she says "12 people". Her face stays clear of the card.
  • Look: paper, the warm off-white style. The layout check found no warnings, and I looked at the settled frame before rendering.
  • Initials, not a photo: the card shows "DR" initials because you gave no photo.
  • No stamp: I left out the closing stamp word, since you gave no words for one.
  • One fact row: the skill suggests two to six. I removed a "Role" row that repeated the header. If you have more facts to show, such as tenure, send them and I'll add them.
  • Not said in the video: Dana's name and title aren't in the transcript, so the card starts at a set time (0.3 s) rather than on her words.
