Start with the whole edit in one prompt. If one part comes back wrong, open that step and use its fixes.

The whole edit in one prompt

Cut my clips into a 60-second speed paint video for TikTok. Follow this order.
- 0-1s: finished piece, one frame
- 1-4s: blank surface, first strokes fast
- 4-30s: block-in and mid layers, steady fast
- 30-40s: one slowdown on a detail, then fast again
- 40-50s: final details, slowing down
- 50-60s: reveal, held, title or signature
Pacing: 20x to 80x with 2 or 3 short slowdowns on the best strokes.
Open with this. Finished piece for half a second, then the blank canvas.
Captions: one title, maybe one line at the reveal.
Music: one track with a build, reveal on the drop.
Avoid these. Bumping the camera. So fast the piece never reads. No slowdowns.
When you're done, list what you changed with timestamps so I can check.

One step at a time

What to say when it's off

  • Rough cut. Too long. "Cut it to 45 seconds. Drop the weakest part first."
  • Captions. Text too long to read. "Cut the title to 5 words."
  • Hook. Hook starts slow. "Start on the frame where the movement begins."
  • Music. Cuts land off the beat. "Move every cut onto the nearest beat."
