The camera whips sideways across a row of the person's pictures (projects, products, screens) with motion blur, brakes on one and pushes into it while a caption lands. A 4 to 10 second clip in 16:9, 9:16, 1:1 or 4:5, as an MP4 on its own or as one scene of a longer launch film. Renders locally with Chrome and ffmpeg: no video model, no key and no cost. Use when a launch wants a quick "out of all of these, this one" moment: a portfolio, a catalogue, a set of templates or a fleet of products.

About this skill

You say

Make a 5 second clip that pans across our five product photos and zooms into the bottle, our new serum. Everything I have is in this folder. If something is missing, use a plausible placeholder and tell me what you assumed.

It said back

The clip is rendered: launch-scene/serum-whip-zoom.mp4, 1920×1080 at 30 fps, 5.3 s, 269 KB. The picture is a 5.0 s scene plus a 0.3 s tail the tool adds. I checked the settled end frame, which is clean. I didn't watch the whole video.

It whips sideways across five photos with motion blur, brakes on the bottle and pushes in. The caption "Meet our new serum" lands as it settles. I used the swiss look (clean grid, square accent) with your green #1F6F5C taken from your logo. Your logo is in the config, but the square in the top-right corner is a plain green block and I didn't confirm the logo renders there.
