Video Processing Editing
FFmpeg automation for video workflows where you need to script the editing, not click through a timeline. Handles the common pipeline tasks: cutting clips at keyframe boundaries to avoid artifacts, concatenating footage with proper color space normalization, mixing audio tracks, burning in subtitles, and optimizing exports for YouTube or social platforms. The skill covers the gotchas that trip people up, like why arbitrary timestamp cuts create black frames and why chaining multiple re-encodes destroys quality. If you're building automated video production systems or batch processing content, this gets you past the FFmpeg learning curve. Not meant for creative work that needs a real NLE.
