Showcase
Description
Turns the 4.6-billion-year history of the Earth into a 3.5-minute two-person dialogue style space-time documentary featuring an omniscient non-human guide and an ordinary person asking questions on behalf of the audience. Connects multiple eras through the action of stepping into the next era, with a question-and-answer exchange every 3 seconds, translating grand scales into everyday metaphors and finally landing in the present. Outputs include two-person character concept prompts, era scene prompts, a 56-shot storyboard table, image-to-video camera movement prompts, subtitle specifications, and background music guidelines. Trigger words: Earth history, 4.6 billion years, life evolution, deep time, time-space travel documentary, guided popular science, AI science video, knowledge short video, two-person dialogue, era travel. Not suitable for: science educational films requiring professional narration voiceovers, single-person talking-head videos, pure stock footage compilations, or popular science animations (this skill produces a realistic live-action texture throughout).

Paleo-Horror Short Generator
Write a 6-8 minute horror-documentary short about an extinct creature: black-background specimen shots to explain 'what it is,' blue-green underwater shots to explore 'what happened back then,' and real fossil plates as evidence. The script opens with lines like 'You think A is scary? Its ancestors would just pray it wasn't hungry,' bringing deep time home to the audience every 90 seconds. Ideal for science short films on paleontology, evolutionary history, and extinction events. Triggers when users mention 'paleontology,' 'extinct animals,' 'prehistoric beasts,' 'evolutionary history science,' or 'fossils.' Not suitable for: live macro insect footage (use macro insect life), 3D cartoon or claymation styles (use stop-motion/3D shorts), pure academic restoration illustrations, or paleogeographic campaign simulations requiring precise maps (use topographic narrative).
VideoBring Maps to Life
Want to make geography science short videos, but struggling to make maps engaging? From "Is Greenland really that big?" to "Why a single mountain changes rainfall on both sides," focus on counter-intuitive, suspenseful viral topics. Use real maps, dynamic routes, camera pans and zooms, and intuitive comparisons to turn knowledge into a vivid story. Designed for vertical short video creation and knowledge account growth, it supports topic planning, fact-checking, script-storyboarding, Chinese subtitles, and user self-voiceover. It defaults to producing 9:16 map animations and exports MP4 in supported browsers, making it great for geography science, trivia, and map commentary content. Examples on this page were generated by GPT-6 Astra using this Skill. You can also try other models; actual results depend on preview and export outputs. Try entering: "Help me create a 60-second vertical video for a geography knowledge account. The theme is 'Are maps lying to us?' Start with a counter-intuitive question, use dynamic maps in the middle, and end with viewers clearly seeing that Africa is about 14 times the size of Greenland."
VideoShort Video Creator
Turn a vague short video idea into a complete content plan ready for generation, editing, and publishing. Whether it is drama shorts, philosophical fables, cute pets, knowledge explainers, food reviews, travel scenery, product showcases, or emotional mood videos, simply describe the theme, characters, or effects in natural language to get genre-appropriate creative directions, story structures, visual styles, and audience value designs. The skill builds value cards around "what viewers take away," balancing save-worthy points, replay value, emotional resonance, and original recognition to avoid generic templates and homogeneous content, while preparing vertical short video assets for Seedance 2.0, Doubao, or Jimeng. Finally, it provides storyboard scripts, Chinese video generation prompts, and protagonist reference image prompts to help you generate scenes segment by segment and assemble them with background music and captions in editing software. It also generates titles, descriptions, tags, and publishing copy for Douyin, Xiaohongshu, and Video Channel, covering necessary disclosures for AI generation, fictional performances, and commercial content. Supporting creative directions like pure content, brand sponsorships, and in-app product tags, it emphasizes native platform alignment and compliant expression without external traffic redirection or exaggerated clickbait endings. All three deliverables are single-file HTMLs that can be opened and copied directly in the browser, suitable for completing short video production and publishing preparation all the way from creative planning.
