A shot library for product promos in Remotion: 124 recipe cards holding 150 named moves. Each is a written recipe plus a tuned component. A film template and sound tools come with it.
- Get it
npx skills add Vincentwei1021/video-shotcraftTo use one recipe without the skill, copy its demo .tsx and the two or three files it imports from demos/_fixtures/.
- Needs
Remotion 4 and React 19, and FFmpeg for its checks. No Tailwind, no CSS files, no web fonts.
- Sends off your machine
Nothing by itself. A few of its tools go online when you run them: sound search on freesound.org, social upload, page capture.
- We watched it run
Four recipes rendered on a newer Remotion than the repo pins. The first two needed no code changes at all.
Lifting one recipe out took a three-line edit. In a tall frame it rendered, but the type stayed the same size, so a tall cut needs its sizes retuned by hand.
A recipe has no props. You change it by editing the file.
- Not tried here
The other 120 cards, the film template and the sound tools were read, not run.

That covers code and docs. Not covered: the bundled sound files and music tracks. The author says 38 cards were worked out by studying other people's films and rebuilt from scratch.
