Instead of generating generic videos immediately, the workflow focuses on: - refining ideas collaboratively - improving hooks - strengthening storytelling - adapting visuals to the target audience - structuring engaging scene progression The goal is to create videos that feel intentional, audience-aware, and emotionally engaging rather than template-generated. --- # Setup Before starting: 1. Define the type of video: - startup launch - explainer - social media short - product showcase - cinematic sequence 2. Identify: - target audience - platform - emotional tone - desired viewer reaction 3. Gather: - product information - scripts or rough ideas - visual references - branding assets Recommended tools: - Remotion - VS Code - Storyboarding notes - Figma or moodboards (optional) --- # Inputs Required - Video idea or rough concept - Product or topic information - Audience profile - Tone/style preference Optional: - Existing script - Competitor references - Branding guidelines --- # When to Use This Skill Use this skill when: - developing launch videos - brainstorming creative concepts - refining weak video ideas - building audience-focused narratives - planning scene flow before implementation - improving viewer engagement --- # When NOT to Use Do NOT use this skill for: - purely technical animation tasks - rendering-only workflows - static slideshow generation - projects without storytelling requirements --- # Example Use Case > Create a launch video for a stock market intelligence app targeting skeptical finance users. Claude should: 1. Analyze the audience mindset 2. Identify weak or generic messaging 3. Develop stronger opening hooks 4. Build curiosity quickly 5. Structure scenes around trust and clarity 6. Refine pacing collaboratively 7. Convert the concept into a storyboard suitable for Remotion Final output should feel: - credible - modern - fast-paced - visually intentional - audience-aware --- # Core Principles ## Collaborative Iteration Claude should not immediately accept the first idea. The workflow should involve: - questioning weak concepts - refining messaging - improving narrative structure - exploring alternative creative directions Creative quality improves through iteration. --- ## Audience Awareness Every storytelling decision should align with: - viewer expectations - platform behavior - emotional response - audience skepticism or motivation Example: A finance audience may require: - stronger credibility - clearer data visualization - less hype-driven messaging --- ## Strong Hooks The opening seconds are critical. Hooks should: - create curiosity - introduce tension - challenge assumptions - immediately establish relevance Weak hooks reduce retention significantly. --- # Workflow ## 1. Concept Exploration Start with the rough idea. Claude should: - ask clarifying questions - identify vague messaging - challenge generic concepts - propose stronger alternatives Example: Instead of: > “AI stock app video” Refine into: > “Fast-paced market intelligence launch video focused on reducing information overload for retail traders.” --- ## 2. Audience Analysis Identify: - viewer motivations - skepticism - attention span - desired emotional response The storytelling style should adapt to the audience. --- ## 3. Hook Development Create multiple opening hook options. Examples: - surprising statistic - provocative statement - visual contradiction - rapid before/after comparison Claude should compare and refine hooks collaboratively. --- ## 4. Story Structuring Organize the narrative into sections: Example: - Hook - Problem - Frustration - Solution - Demonstration - CTA Each section should: - transition naturally - maintain pacing - increase engagement --- ## 5. Visual Direction Define: - motion style - typography - pacing - transitions - visual tone The visual direction should reinforce the message. Example: Finance-focused videos may prefer: - clean typography - data-focused visuals - minimal distractions - high information density --- ## 6. Scene Planning Translate the concept into Remotion-ready scenes. Define: - scene duration - transitions - subtitle behavior - animation emphasis - timing Each scene should remain modular and reusable. --- ## 7. Final Validation Before implementation: Validate: - hook strength - pacing quality - narrative clarity - audience alignment - emotional consistency Weak sections should be refined before animation begins. --- # Output Expectations The final output should include: - structured creative direction - clear storytelling flow - audience-aligned messaging - scene-by-scene storyboard - implementation-ready concept structure The concept should feel: - intentional - polished - emotionally coherent - platform-aware --- # Execution Strategy (for AI agents) The agent should: 1. Refine ideas collaboratively instead of accepting weak concepts 2. Prioritize audience psychology 3. Improve hooks aggressively 4. Structure scenes intentionally 5. Push for clarity and emotional engagement 6. Ensure the concept is implementation-ready for Remotion workflows The workflow should optimize for: - retention - clarity - pacing - narrative quality - emotional engagement --- # Best Practices - Strong hooks matter more than flashy visuals - Avoid generic startup-style messaging - Build curiosity early - Keep short-form pacing tight - Remove unnecessary scenes - Align visuals with emotional tone - Iterate before implementation --- # Notes - Creative direction heavily impacts video performance - Audience-aware storytelling outperforms generic templates - Good videos are structured intentionally, not improvised - Collaborative refinement produces stronger concepts
