What is kinetic-multicam?

A prompt template for turning one talking-head video take into a video with rapid camera movements and large animated text synced to speech. It is intended for video-to-video AI workflows.

Use it to add camera snaps and speech-based motion-graphics text to an uploaded talking-head video.

It avoids rewriting the whole scene description and keeps the original face, room, audio, and lip sync unchanged.

Token cost

What it costs to keep this loaded

Counted locally with the o200k_base tokenizer, which is exact for GPT models; Claude uses its own tokenizer and its counts differ. Treat this as one consistent yardstick across the catalogue rather than a bill. Prices are per million input tokens.

Model	Per session	Once invoked
Fable 5.1	$0.00130	$0.04881
Opus 5.5	$0.00052	$0.01952
Sonnet 5.5	$0.00026	$0.00976
Haiku 4.5	$0.00013	$0.00488

Security

Grade A, and why

kinetic-multicam scanned grade A with 0 findings against 26 rules in 11 categories — prompt injection, anti-refusal, data exfiltration, privilege escalation, supply chain, agent snooping, system-prompt leakage, SSRF and excessive agency — measured 1mo ago.

A static scan of the body, not an audit. Every finding is printed with the line that produced it so you can judge whether it matters here. A mod is markdown that instructs an agent; that is exactly why what it instructs is worth reading.

Nothing flagged

None of the 26 patterns this scan looks for appear in this file: no shell pipes, no recursive deletes, no credential paths, no hidden text, no instruction-override or anti-refusal phrasing, no agent-config snooping. That is not a guarantee, it is the absence of the things that are checkable.

/kinetic-multicam: One Take → Kinetic Supers + Camera Snaps

Overview

Turns ONE real talking-head take into the proven video-to-video prompt — best on Seedance 2.0 Fast (Google Omni runs it but with clearly weaker results; don't recommend it) — that adds two things to the untouched footage: split-second visible camera whips — motion-blurred moves that lock into stable frames on arrival — and bold kinetic supers (motion-graphics text, NOT captions) synced to the speech beats. The prompt preserves the uploaded source video — face, room, audio, lip sync all frozen. It does NOT describe or regenerate the scene.

Core principle: the template is frozen; only three zones ever change — the [Xs] timestamps (always), the "[TEXT]" supers (cut from the words actually spoken; not every block gets one — supers follow their own density rule), and the camera position descriptions (only if the user asks).

Sibling skill, not the same skill: /multicam does hard cuts with no text. NEVER mix the two templates — this one never says "hard cut", uses From [Xs] to [Xs] ranges (not * At [Xs]:), and carries its own typography direction. The transition itself is the differential: /multicam CUTS between angles; this skill TRAVELS between them with a visible motion-blurred whip.

Input

Local video file only (the user's own footage). If the user only has a URL (an Instagram link, a Drive link), ask them to save the video as a local file first. If more than one video could be "the video", ask — never guess via ls -t.

Step 0 — Preflight (first run, or on any missing-tool error)

python "<this skill's base directory>/scripts/check_env.py"

It verifies Python 3.8+, ffmpeg, ffprobe and Whisper, and for anything missing it prints what the tool is FOR plus the exact install command for the user's OS. It never installs anything itself — relay what is missing, ask the user for permission, install, then re-run the check. If everything passed recently in this session, skip straight to Step 1.

4 files beside SKILL.md in the same directory: the scripts, references and assets a skill reads on demand. Not counted in the per-session cost; read them before you install if any of them is executable.

Changes

What this file has done since we first saw it

Hashed on every crawl. A supply-chain change to an agent config is a question of when, not whether, so the history is kept rather than the latest state alone.
