Try These Prompts

Start with one video
Add simple title and lower-third overlays to my local interview video. Use the recommended aspect ratio and a restrained style.
Create a podcast package
Package this podcast clip with transcript-synced quote cards, speaker labels, and two data callouts. Keep the video visible beneath the graphics.
Produce a portrait cut
Create a 9:16 version of this talking-head video. Use picture-in-picture only when it improves readability, and use six timed graphic cards.
Direct the visual system
Build a 16:9 talking-head recut with an editorial theme, side panels for metrics, short kinetic title moments, and card timings based on meaningful transcript transitions.

Best Practices

  • Review and correct names, numbers, and technical terms in the transcript before planning overlays.
  • Keep cards short and place them only at meaningful moments in the speech.
  • Preview the rendered video and verify that overlays do not hide important visual content.

Avoid

  • Do not use this skill for subtitle-only requests.
  • Do not add a graphic card for every sentence in the transcript.
  • Do not use unverified transcript text for names, prices, or factual claims.
