What short-video-production does

The skill covers the whole path from concept to finished clip: picking a video type, breaking the timeline into seconds, filming, editing, and tuning for mobile viewing. It ships tables for optimal length per genre — tutorial, review, vlog, tips list, before-after — plus format specs and a gear comparison by budget.

Retention is the point. The first three seconds decide the video, so the hook gets its own treatment and every frame has to earn its place. A 15-second clip gets one structure, a 30-second clip another, a 60-second clip a third, each with exact block boundaries.

This is not for static image posts or horizontal cinematic work — those need different tools. Shoot on a phone with no mic and no light and your expectations should drop; the gear table marks that basic tier plainly.

What it helps with

  • split a clip into hook, main section and call to action
  • pick a length that fits the genre: tutorial, review, vlog or tips list
  • turn horizontal footage into a 9:16 vertical cut
  • assemble a gear kit for a given budget
  • rework a long video into a short clip

Example prompts for the agent

  • help me plan a 30-second tutorial video for Xiaohongshu
  • check my script: is the hook in the first three seconds strong enough?
  • what gear do I need to shoot a vlog on a phone
