caption-burn

Burned-in captions for a finished vertical video, three kinds. transcribe.py gets word timings from the video's own audio through the GooseWorks proxy (fal Whisper, charged to your GooseWorks credits, cents); captions.py burns one to three words at a time with Pillow + ffmpeg (no libass needed), either pinned to a split-screen seam (plate 25% above / 75% below) or at a fixed height, in a plate, outline or one-word serif style, with an optional red hook card; plates.py burns per-beat caption blocks (black, one union silhouette, placed in the emptiest band) for formats with no voice. The last caption (the CTA) holds to the final frame. Use as the last step of any video ad.

Takes ICP + objective, generates audience targeting recommendations, ad set structure, copy framework per placement, and exports as a campaign brief or structured CSV. Focused on campaign architecture, not creative generation.1 installsrender-cinematic-music-videoAssemble a cinematic live-action-style music-video ad from a config — an original sung anthem carries the whole narrative while N 35mm-film-look i2v clips are each cut to their lyric window and hard-concatenated on the beat as a 3-act arc, the anthem muxed at loudnorm I=-14, cinematic lower-third serif captions built from the song's OWN word timings (never Whisper) with the hook line landing on the chorus drop, and closed on a brand end card composited from the real asset — never AI-rendered text. This is the FREE deterministic assembly stage (cut-to-window + hard concat + anthem mux + captions + end card); the anthem, keyframes, and clips come from create-music-elevenlabs / create-image-gpt-image-fal / create-video-fal. Use for the cinematic-music-video format.1 installsmeta-ad-policy-checkerPre-flight policy check for Meta ads. Takes ad copy plus advertiser context, resolves and fetches the relevant Meta transparency-center policy pages at runtime, and returns a Pass / Fix Required / Block verdict with cited findings and rewrites.1 installsrender-absurdist-explainerAssemble an absurdist animated-explainer video ad (~38s, 9:16) from per-scene i2v clips + their measured VO windows — retime each clip to its VO, re-encode every segment to identical 30fps/libx264/yuv420p so the concat demuxer never drops frames, concat, build a REAL-product PIL end card (never AI) held static, mix VO (loudnorm I=-14) under music (loudnorm I=-26, volume 0.62, amix normalize=0), and burn libass captions last. FREE deterministic assembly (bash-free, Python + ffmpeg + PIL); the recipe supplies the clips, VO, music, product photo, palette, and caption table and gates the paid keyframe/clip/VO/music calls to their own capabilities. Use for the absurdist-explainer format.1 installssales-call-prepPre-sales-call intelligence composite. Deep dives on the person AND their company before a sales call, then maps findings to your product to generate talking points, objection prep, and a call strategy. Goes beyond generic attendee research — this is sales-specific intelligence that helps SDRs, AEs, and founders walk into calls with a plan. Tool-agnostic — works with any CRM, research source, and calendar.1 installs
