Frequently asked questions
AI-generated answers based on this skill's SKILL.md and metadata
How do I create a custom video composition with general-video?
General Video lets you author custom HyperFrames compositions for projects that don't fit specialized workflows. Start by setting up your project brief and composition file, then assemble multiple scenes using the storyboarding workflow. Add footage, arrange clips, apply transitions and motion effects, and refine your edit until it matches your vision—all without being locked into a template.
What's the general video editing workflow for multi-scene projects?
General Video's workflow centers on building multi-scene projects through storyboarding and assembly. Organize your scenes in sequence, import and arrange your footage, add transitions between clips, apply motion graphics where needed, and manage your composition state as you work. This flexible approach works for brand reels, montages, sizzle videos, and longer-form content.
When should I choose general-video over motion-graphics or other skills?
General Video is your choice when you need creative flexibility beyond templated approaches. Use it for custom compositions, brand reels, montages, and freeform edits. If your project requires specialized motion graphics, animated text, or other dedicated workflows, those skills may be better suited—but general-video handles the broad middle ground of custom video production.
Can I make a brand reel or sizzle video with general-video?
Yes. General Video is designed for creating brand reels, montages, and sizzle videos with motion and transitions. Build your composition by assembling multiple scenes, layering in your footage, adding motion effects and transitions between clips, and refining the pacing and visual flow until your reel captures the energy and message you need.
How does general-video handle footage remix and assembly?
General Video supports flexible footage remix and assembly through its multi-scene composition framework. Import your clips, arrange them in your storyboard, trim and position them as needed, and layer in transitions and motion to create a polished final piece. This freeform build process lets you experiment with different arrangements and effects without rigid constraints.
What file formats and project state management does general-video support?
General Video manages your project state through composition files and project briefs, letting you save and revisit your work. The skill is built on Apache-2.0 licensing and integrates with HyperFrames for flexible composition authoring. Check your platform's documentation for specific file format support and export options for your final video output.
