The Style it uses

Signal

Wide-tracked upper-case type on near-black with a cyan accent. For launches, demos and data.

Titles, lower thirds, stats and captions use this Style. If your project has a brand kit, its font and colors win.

What it costs

130–660 credits a run

Worked out for a project with about 6 hours of footage. A run is priced on the work Eddie does, so most runs land inside this range, and footage length changes it only a little.

  • Importing that footage is separate: 1500 credits, at 250 credits an hour. Footage already in the project is not charged again.
  • Downloading the result as an MP4 is free for the first 10 each day, then 50 credits. An export to Premiere Pro, DaVinci Resolve or Final Cut Pro is 100 credits.
  • Adding the recipe to your workspace is free.

The brief Eddie follows

This is the recipe's prompt. The parts in {curly brackets} are the blanks you fill in when you run it. You can edit the brief after you add the recipe to your workspace.

Conference recap

Make a {target_minutes}-minute conference recap from this project in {aspect_ratio}. Audience and goal: {editorial_focus}. Read the session transcripts. Pick one short, quotable idea from each of the strongest speakers, and keep each idea complete. Open on 10 seconds of the venue and crowd, then let the speakers' ideas carry the middle, covering most of each line with b-roll of the room, the stage and the hallway using add_brolls. End on the biggest applause or a wide of the full room. Build it with create_edit_result at the target length with tight pacing. Add a lower third with add_graphic for each speaker, with name and title from the agenda in the Backgrounder. Use only names, titles, numbers and claims that are in the footage, my notes or the project's Backgrounder. If a name or title is uncertain, ask me before you put it on screen. Add a music bed from the workspace music library with add_music_track, ducked under speech. Add add_captions in the minimal look. End on a closing card with set_titles reading: {closing_card}. If that is empty, leave the closing card out. Style: call set_style_pack with pack "signal" as soon as the edit exists, before you place any title, lower third, stat or caption. Do not switch to another pack. When you finish, tell me the finished length against the target, list each item above as done or not done with the reason, and create a review link with share_review_link.
