Website to HyperFrames
Capture a website, then produce a professional video from it.
Users say things like:
- "Capture https://... and make me a 25-second product launch video"
- "Turn this website into a 15-second social ad for Instagram"
- "Create a 30-second product tour from https://..."
The workflow has 7 steps. Each produces an artifact that gates the next.
Step 1: Capture & Understand
Read: references/step-1-capture.md
Run the capture, read the extracted data, and build a working summary using the write-down-and-forget method.
Gate: Print your site summary (name, top colors, fonts, key assets, one-sentence vibe).
Step 2: Write DESIGN.md
Read: references/step-2-design.md
Write a simple brand reference for the captured website. 6 sections, ~90 lines. This is a cheat sheet, not the creative plan — that comes in Step 4.
Gate: DESIGN.md exists in the project directory.
Step 3: Write SCRIPT
Read: references/step-3-script.md
Write the narration script. The story backbone. Scene durations come from the narration, not from guessing.
Gate: SCRIPT.md exists in the project directory.
Step 4: Write STORYBOARD
Read: references/step-4-storyboard.md
Write per-beat creative direction: mood, camera, animations, transitions, assets, depth layers, SFX. This is the creative north star — the document the engineer follows to build each composition.
Gate: STORYBOARD.md exists with beat-by-beat direction and an asset audit table.
Step 5: Generate VO + Map Timing
Read: references/step-5-vo.md
Generate TTS audio, transcribe for word-level timestamps, and map timestamps to beats. Update STORYBOARD.md with real durations.
Gate: narration.wav (or.mp3) + transcript.json exist. Beat timings in STORYBOARD.md updated.
Step 6: Build Compositions
Read: The /hyperframes skill (invoke it — every rule matters) Read: references/step-6-build.md
Build each composition following the storyboard. After each one: self-review for layout, asset placement, and animation quality.
Gate: Every composition has been self-reviewed. No overlapping elements, no misplaced assets, no static images without motion.
Step 7: Validate & Deliver
Read: references/step-7-validate.md
Lint, validate, preview. Create a HANDOFF.md for multi-session continuity.
Gate: npx hyperframes lint and npx hyperframes validate pass with zero errors.
