What happens when you run it
You write a line. The agent does the rest — it studies this skill's guide, expands your idea into a full production brief, and runs the tools itself.
- Step 1
Reads the Video Production Director playbook
All 10 parts of the guide — 1. Establish the spine first, 2. Shot size progression is the edit and more.
- Step 2
Writes the full brief
Turns your one line into a detailed, in-style prompt — about as rich as the 90-word example.
- Step 3
Runs the right tools
Generate video, Generate image — chosen and called by the agent, not by you.
- Step 4
Delivers to your album
Your clips land in Create, ready to edit, remix or animate.
About this skill
Direct multi-shot or campaign-style video with real craft decisions — shot size progression, lens and camera grammar, lighting plan, pacing and coverage. Use for trailers, ads, music videos, brand films, product launches, showreels and any request where the shots must feel authored rather than merely listed.

Starter prompt
90 wordsThe exact brief that produced the image above — the level of detail the agent writes for you from a single line.
An overhead flat-lay on a bright bone-white desk, filling the frame. A clean black and white clapperboard lies open at a slight angle, beside a ruled shot list with neat pencil column marks, a small folded lens chart, and three instant photo prints of a sunlit street pinned in a row. One thin amber grease-pencil arc curves across the paper like a camera-move diagram. Soft even daylight from the upper left, delicate shadows, bone-white and warm grey palette with a single amber accent, bright and high key, no legible lettering.
