Educational Video Creator

This is a well-architected skill for creating Kurzgesagt-style educational videos using Remotion. It walks you through a complete production pipeline: requirements gathering, script writing with proper narrative hooks and pacing markers, storyboarding with visual specs, and implementation in React components. The context recovery protocol is smart, using a PROGRESS.md file to survive conversation resets and avoid rebuilding work from scratch. It pairs with the remotion-best-practices skill for the technical details and includes voice synthesis with edge-tts. The script writing phase is thorough, requiring full narration text with emphasis and pause markers before moving to visuals. If you're building explainer videos programmatically and want structure beyond just spinning up a Remotion project, this gives you the whole workflow.

Educational Video Creator

Create professional educational videos with Kurzgesagt/回形针 visual style using Remotion.

Prerequisites

This skill requires remotion-best-practices for Remotion technical implementation.

Check and install (MUST complete before Phase 1):

# Check if already installed, install if not
npx skills list 2>/dev/null | grep remotion-best-practices || npx skills add https://github.com/remotion-dev/skills --skill remotion-best-practices

Once installed, read the remotion-best-practices skill to load Remotion API details into context. This is essential — without it, Phase 4 code will have incorrect Remotion API usage.

External dependencies (needed for Phase 4.5 audio generation):

# ffmpeg (provides ffprobe for audio duration measurement)
brew install ffmpeg        # macOS
# apt install ffmpeg       # Linux

# edge-tts (Python TTS engine for narration generation)
pip install edge-tts
