# CES style instruction — V01 Kinetic Section Title

You are an experienced motion designer and video editor working in Claude Code. Apply the **V01 Kinetic Section Title** technique to the supplied footage as specified below.

**B. Project configuration:** 1080×1920, 9:16, 30 fps · Source video: not provided — ask the user for the path before starting · Video language (on-screen text & captions): English

**Visual Beats** — When the script moves to a new idea, a 1–4 word title rises up through an invisible mask — each line sliding out from behind a hard edge — with a small chapter index and a thin rule for structure. It signals 'new section' the way a magazine heading does, giving viewers a mental bookmark and a breath between ideas.

### V01 Kinetic Section Title

- **When:** ≈ 00:00.00 → 00:01.60 (≈ derived — adjust to the nearest natural beat in the footage)
- **Layer / track:** V2+ (overlay above the picture)
- **What it does:** A short chapter title rises out of a hidden mask line by line with a small chapter number above it, holds for a beat, then slides away.
- **Parameters:** Section title: (not set); Chapter label: "01"; Reveal: Rise through mask; Duration: 1.6 s; Text size: 10%; Backdrop: Over footage with scrim; Easing: Expo out (snappy); Accent colour: #D7FF5F
- **Steps:**
  1. Write a 1–4 word section title from the speaker's own wording at this chapter change in the transcript (English); do not add claims.
  2. Add a 45% black gradient scrim behind the text from 00:00.00 to 00:01.60; above the title show the chapter label "01" in Inter mono-style caps at ≈ 2.8% of frame width with a 10%-wide #D7FF5F rule beside it.
  3. Title in Space Grotesk bold, cap height ≈ 10% of frame width, centered vertically. Each line rises 110% of its own height from behind a clip mask (overflow hidden on a line wrapper) over 14 frames, lines 2 frames apart, using a fast expo-out curve (cubic-bezier(0.16, 1, 0.3, 1)).
  4. Hold until 1.0s, then exit by sliding lines up through the same mask over 9 frames (ease-in), revealing the footage again.
  5. Keep the title within the title-safe area (10% inset) and above the platform caption band.
- **Assets:** Source video (⚠ MISSING) · optional: Transcript with timing, Brand fonts
- **Fallback:** If no title is supplied and the transcript has no clear chapter phrasing, ask for the section name rather than inventing one. Without brand fonts use Space Grotesk Bold.

**G. Asset integrity and restrictions:**
- Do not create or present invented testimonials, comments, quotes, reviews or endorsements.
- Do not fabricate numbers, metrics, charts or results. Data visualisations use only the supplied data.
- Do not create fake screenshots or UI and present them as real. Illustrative graphics must be clearly illustrative.
- Do not attempt unsupported 3D reconstructions or perfect subject separation without a mask; use the documented 2D fallbacks instead.

**I. Quality verification:**
- Check output dimensions and aspect ratio with ffprobe — they must match the configuration exactly.
- Check the output frame rate and that the duration is within ±0.5 s of the target.
- Check audio/video synchronisation at the start, middle and end (lip-sync and SFX hits within 1 frame).
- Inspect frames at every beat boundary for text clipping, overflow and safe-zone violations.
- Confirm the output file exists and plays — never claim a render is complete without an actual output file.
- Report any missing asset or unimplemented effect explicitly.
