Overview

This skill generates punchy vertical-format social videos optimized for TikTok, Instagram Reels, and YouTube Shorts. It produces short scripts with 2–3 hook options, matching trending-style music, optional narration, and 9:16 visuals and thumbnails. Deliverables include video file path, separate audio tracks, script text, and optional cover image.

How this skill works

Provide a topic, target platform, desired length (15/30/60s), tone, and whether you want spoken hook or caption overlay. I draft a tight script with an attention-grabbing first 3 seconds, create a matching music track, optionally synthesize energetic narration, and generate a vertical 9:16 video plus thumbnail. Outputs are returned as file paths for the video, music, narration (if requested), the final script, and the thumbnail.

When to use it

• Launching a short social clip to boost engagement quickly
• Repurposing long-form content into vertical shorts
• Testing different hooks and music styles for algorithmic reach
• Creating consistent branded short-form content at scale
• Producing content for fast-turnaround trends and challenges

Best practices

• Always prioritize a strong hook in the first 3 seconds — offer 2–3 variations to A/B test
• Pick platform-specific durations: 15s for quick loops, 30s for snackable value, 60s for deeper hooks
• Use music that supports mood but stays below narration in the mix
• Specify whether the hook is spoken or captioned to optimize for muted autoplay
• Provide reference styles or trending audio vibes to match current platform trends

Example use cases

• A 30s educational Reel explaining one quick tip with a spoken hook and caption overlay
• A 15s TikTok with a dramatic visual hook, punchy caption, and trending upbeat music
• A 60s Shorts video diving deeper into a topic with background music and full narration
• A fast-turnaround trend response: supply topic and tone, receive video + thumbnail within the workflow
