Creator workflow for educational videos in English
- Script (30 min): one idea per video, hook in first 15s with a curiosity gap, not a definition. Students search definitions — creators hook wonder.
- Voice first: generate English narration, use durations as animation timing ground truth.
- Diagrams: one visual change every 3–5s for longs, every 2s for Shorts. Clean 2D schemas beat heavy 3D for retention.
- Publish + repurpose: upload 4–8 min long, cut 2 Shorts from same timeline, then re-voice to Hindi/English/Spanish without re-animating.
