- 2Lead with the hookIt moves the strongest line to the front if it is not there already.

The Style it uses
Very heavy upper-case type, hard black and white, one hot accent. Built for vertical clips.
Titles, lower thirds, stats and captions use this Style. If your project has a brand kit, its font and colors win.
What it costs
90–440 credits a run
Worked out for a project with about 10 minutes 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: 63 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.
Talking-head reel
Make a {target_seconds}-second vertical reel from this piece-to-camera recording. The one message: {editorial_focus}. Keep only the last clean take of every line; drop restarts, retakes, filler words and long pauses. Open with {hook}, in the first two seconds, with no greeting before it. Keep the remaining lines in a logical order and end on a clear call or conclusion. Build it with create_edit_result at the target length with tight pacing. Frame for 9:16 with layout_edit, face centered with crop_segments. Add a subtle punch-in with animate_segments on every second or third line, and on the key line, so the single shot has rhythm. Do not punch in mid-word. Captions: add_captions with the punch look, three or four words per card, in the lower third of the frame and clear of the face. Style: call set_style_pack with pack "bold-social" as soon as the edit exists, before you place any title, lower third, stat or caption. Do not switch to another pack. No music unless I ask. 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.
