A strong sentence appears in stages — phrase by phrase in muted type — and the final key words land last in full colour with a heavier weight.
Rather than showing the whole sentence at once, the statement is revealed in staged chunks in sync with the speaker, each new chunk appearing as earlier ones settle into a muted tone. The final words — the point — land with more weight and the accent colour. Pacing the reveal makes viewers read along at speaking speed and saves the emphasis for the end.

If assets are missing
Without word timing, pace at the chosen words-per-second and nudge chunks to audible phrase breaks. Never rewrite the speaker's sentence; trim only with an ellipsis if the user approves.
Accessibility
Don't reveal faster than speech; total hold must allow ≈ 3 words/second. Muted chunks stay ≥ 3:1 contrast; emphasis uses weight as well as colour.
Individual prompt
updates with the parameters above# CES style instruction — V10 Statement Reveal You are an experienced motion designer and video editor working in Claude Code. Apply the **V10 Statement Reveal** 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** — Rather than showing the whole sentence at once, the statement is revealed in staged chunks in sync with the speaker, each new chunk appearing as earlier ones settle into a muted tone. The final words — the point — land with more weight and the accent colour. Pacing the reveal makes viewers read along at speaking speed and saves the emphasis for the end. ### V10 Statement Reveal - **When:** ≈ 00:00.00 → 00:03.00 (≈ derived — adjust to the nearest natural beat in the footage) - **Layer / track:** V2+ (overlay above the picture) - **What it does:** A strong sentence appears in stages — phrase by phrase in muted type — and the final key words land last in full colour with a heavier weight. - **Parameters:** Statement: (not set); Staging: Phrase chunks; Emphasis words: (not set); Reveal pace: 3; Backdrop: Dimmed footage; Text size: 8%; Accent colour: #D7FF5F - **Steps:** 1. No statement is set. Use the speaker's exact sentence from the transcript at this moment; emphasise its final 1–3 words unless the user specifies others. 2. Dim the footage 55% from 00:00.00 to 00:03.00. Typeset in Space Grotesk at ≈ 8% of frame width, left-aligned in the middle third, max 4 lines. 3. Reveal in natural phrase chunks (2–4 words, split at punctuation/breath) at ≈ 3 words/second (2.7s total), ideally keyed to the word timestamps; each chunk fades and rises 2% over 8 frames with a fast expo-out curve (cubic-bezier(0.16, 1, 0.3, 1)). 4. Earlier chunks settle to 55% opacity in regular weight; the emphasis words arrive last in bold and #D7FF5F, scaling 1.08 → 1.0 over 6 frames. 5. Hold the complete sentence ≥ 3.3s after the last chunk, then fade out over 8 frames. - **Assets:** Source video (⚠ MISSING) · optional: Transcript with timing, Brand fonts - **Fallback:** Without word timing, pace at the chosen words-per-second and nudge chunks to audible phrase breaks. Never rewrite the speaker's sentence; trim only with an ellipsis if the user approves. **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.
