4 use cases

  • Turn a topic into a narrated explainer video

    Give an agent a topic and get a 1280x720 MP4 with voiceover, subtitles and chapter progress.

    View prompt
    Using the anything2explainer skill in this repo, make a narrated explainer video about <topic>, in <language> and about <length> long. Stop at the four checkpoints for my approval. Verify that the final output is a 1280x720 H.264 MP4 with voiceover and subtitles, and that the research doc lists a URL for every number or claim.

  • Convert an article or document into a video

    Feed a written article or document to the skill and get a narrated video of its key ideas.

    View prompt
    Using the anything2explainer skill in this repo, turn the document at <path-to-document> into a narrated explainer video in <language>, about <length> long. Pause at the narration sign-off so I can edit the script. Verify that the narration covers the main points of the document and that the output is an MP4 with subtitles and chapter progress.

  • Build a video from your own narration audio

    Use the Remotion template with finished audio and a hand-filled timeline instead of the built-in TTS.

    View prompt
    In the anything2explainer repo, scaffold a new Remotion project at ~/work/<slug> with template/scripts/new_project.sh, add my finished audio file <path-to-audio> with a hand-filled timeline and subtitles, and render a 30-second preview. Verify that the preview plays with the audio and that subtitles line up with the spoken words.

  • Render explainer videos on a Raspberry Pi 5

    Run the full pipeline on ARM Linux with system Chromium and a local or cloud voice engine.

    View prompt
    On this Raspberry Pi 5 with the anything2explainer repo cloned, set REMOTION_BROWSER_EXECUTABLE to the system Chromium and generate voiceover with TTS_ENGINE=piper, then render a short test video. Verify that the render finishes and produces an MP4 that plays with audio.
