Shorts Director
Premium
Use for any short-form video task: editing raw takes, scripting, planning a shoot, cutting, captions, animation, sound design, reviewing a draft, or choosing an editing style. Load before writing or editing any short. The creator gives the direction (what the video is, the feel, who's in it); the director reads all the footage, plans the edit against a five-item critic rubric (hook, pacing, sound sync, sound design, would it get saved), borrows moves from eight studied styles (cinematic confessional, one-idea explainer, phone diary, diary-essay blend, story tribute, versus, comedy, animated What If), builds with whatever tools the project has, and has a fresh agent score the render before anything is shown. Also fires on: TikTok, Reel, Short, YouTube Short, vertical video, video edit, footage, takes, b-roll, video script, video hook, captions, film plan, shot list, series bible.
