Render proof points overlay

render-proof-points-overlay

Build the deterministic PIL/FFmpeg overlays for the "Instagram comparison-tool reviewer" UGC ad — a white "we got a perfect 10/10 score" headline pill (trailing medal), an orange "but here's also why you'll love us" sub pill (trailing finger-down, width-matched to the header), and 3-4 green-check proof pills — then composite them onto a base clip in the format's signature diagonal cascade and mux the music into the master. FREE and deterministic: the pills are PIL-rendered so the score, checks, and wordmark stay pixel-crisp (a video model would smear type). The base clip (create-image-fal keyframe -> create-video-fal i2v) and the music bed (create-music-elevenlabs) come from separate paid capabilities; this one only does the free rendering.

Run

fetch_icons.py --run-dir <run> ; build_overlays.py --config config.json --out-dir <run>/generated/overlays ; compose_master.py --config config.json --run-dir <run> — reads <run>/generated/clip-handheld.mp4 + generated/music-bed.m4a, writes <run>/master-final.mp4. 1080x1920, deterministic, $0. (Add --no-music to compose for a silent design preview.)

Scripts

• fetch_icons.py — downloads the three Twemoji PNGs (medal 1f3c5, finger-down 1f447, check 2705) to <run>/assets/icons. PIL cannot render Apple Color Emoji, so pills paste Twemoji PNGs. Free, local.
• build_overlays.py — PIL: renders the white score header (trailing medal), the orange subhead (trailing finger-down, width-matched to the header), and N green-check proof pills auto-sized to their copy. Bold weight and icon-centered-on-pill-middle are load-bearing.
• compose_master.py — FFmpeg: scale/crop the base clip to 1080x1920@30, composite the always-on headers, cascade the proof pills (each enable='gte(t,T)' on its own alternating LEFT/RIGHT row), mux the music, apply the anti-AI grain pass, re-encode crf23/maxrate12M -> master-final.mp4.

Contract

• Deterministic + FREE (PIL + FFmpeg); no paid calls, no AI-rendered text — the score, checks, and wordmark are composited, never generated.
• Config-driven off one config.json (overlays, layout, duration_sec, optional music/post_production); the template recipe supplies the config from recipe.config.
• Always re-run build_overlays.py before compose_master.py — the compositor reads pre-rendered PNGs and silently reuses stale ones on a copy change.
• Headers stay on 0-duration and must not cover the bottle face; proof pills cascade one-per-beat down the diagonal (NOT four-corners) — the cascade is the format's signature.
• Requires Pillow + ffmpeg. No API keys.
