Hyperframes Video Overlays

HyperFrames Video Overlays

Use this skill only as a child workflow of video-use. It creates transparent motion overlay assets that video-use composites later.

Contract

• Work under edit/animations/slot_<id>/.
• Output edit/animations/slot_<id>/render.webm with alpha whenever possible.
• If alpha WebM is unavailable, output a PNG sequence plus manifest.json and note the fallback.
• Do not edit source footage or final videos directly.
• Return an edl.json overlays[] item with file, start, end, x, and y.

{"file":"animations/slot_01/render.webm","start":2.0,"end":5.0,"x":0,"y":0}

Use For

• UI motion, app screens, pointer/cursor motion, animated captions, product callout cards.
• Short kinetic typography with CSS/JS timing.
• HTML layouts that need browser-quality typography.

Workflow

1. Create edit/animations/slot_<id>/.
2. Build the HyperFrames project or HTML entry there.
3. Match the main video dimensions, frame rate, duration, and safe zones.
4. Render transparent WebM as render.webm using HyperFrames output settings such as --format webm when available.
5. Verify alpha, dimensions, duration, and first/last frames before handing back to video-use.

Rules

• Keep text concise and readable on mobile.
• Use Source Han Sans / 思源黑体 or a documented fallback for Chinese text.
• Leave subtitle safe zones clear; video-use applies subtitles LAST.
• Write timing assumptions into manifest.json.
