Implements professional video transitions and creative effects using the FFmpeg xfade filter system.
A comprehensive skill for Claude Code that automates the creation of professional video transitions and cinematic effects using FFmpeg. It provides a complete reference for over 40 xfade transition types, including fades, wipes, slides, and iris effects, significantly reducing the complexity of manual CLI configuration. The skill simplifies challenging tasks like calculating precise timing offsets for multi-clip sequences, creating automated image-to-video slideshows, and synchronizing audio crossfades, while also offering advanced support for custom mathematical transition expressions and luma matte masking.
