Included Skills20
Inspect generated images, video and audio before delivery using deterministic metadata, contact-sheet, black-frame and silence checks plus visual and listening review. Use to accept, reject or repair Magic Hour media outputs; it does not generate media or predict audience performance.
Create finished AI videos with Magic Hour from a prompt, image, face, character, performance or audio. Use for image-to-video, text-to-video, face swaps, talking photos and character remixes when Magic Hour is requested or no different provider is required.
Turn a supplied reference video, format or creative premise into an original finished short with Magic Hour. Use for creator remixes, social video concepts, visual jokes, transformations and character-led clips; do not copy another creator's identity or unsupported factual claims.
Place a supplied person into a scene image with Magic Hour Body Swap, preserving the intended identity and checking pose, scale and scene contact. Use for full-person photo placement; use Face Swap for only a face and Character Replace for an existing video performance.
Create, extend or apply a reusable brand kit with Magic Hour imagery, exact logos and colors, editable layouts and a practical brand guide. Use for visual identities, brand books and coordinated branded assets when Magic Hour is the chosen media provider.
Finish a product ad with exact copy and layout or create coordinated assets from one approved reference. Use for campaigns and assembled ads when Magic Hour is requested or is the project's chosen media provider. Not for one isolated image edit or an unrelated collection.
Keep a recurring character recognizable across Magic Hour images, storyboards, and video shots. Use for a mascot, fictional character, or authorized person appearing in multiple scenes; not a single portrait or face swap.
Replace a subject in an existing video or transfer its performance onto a reference character with Magic Hour. Use for whole-character recasting and motion transfer; not face-only swaps or generating unrelated scenes with a recurring character.
Turn a source document or brief into a finished narrated explainer using Magic Hour images, speech and video, with a coherent visual style and complete sentences. Use for educational, product and process explainers when Magic Hour is the chosen media provider.
Put a supplied face into an existing video or photo with Magic Hour while preserving the performance, shot and intended cast. Use for face swaps, recasting a clip or putting someone into a scene; use Character Replace when the body, costume or whole character must change.
Edit an existing image with Magic Hour while protecting details outside the requested change. Use for background replacement, cleanup, relighting, recoloring or reframing when Magic Hour is requested or is the project's chosen provider. Requires a source image; not prompt-only creation.
Animate a portrait, character, artwork or scene with Magic Hour, editing and inspecting the start frame when needed before motion. Use for image-to-video, transformations, reveals and character animation when Magic Hour is requested or is the project's chosen media provider.
Build a product listing image set with Magic Hour, including a clean main image, detail and lifestyle images, and accurate feature layouts. Use for marketplace or ecommerce listing assets when Magic Hour is the chosen media provider.
Generate, edit, and retrieve images, video, and audio with Magic Hour, including recovery of existing projects. Use when Magic Hour is requested or is the project's chosen media provider; preserve an explicitly requested alternative provider.
Turn a supplied song or instrumental into a Magic Hour visualizer, music video or performance clip. Use for release teasers, lyric-inspired scenes and artist visuals; distinguish the web Music Video Generator from the available MCP audio and animation routes.
Create or edit a Magic Hour product image with controlled composition, geometry, branding and copy space. Use for product shots, hero images, packaging and ecommerce visuals when Magic Hour is requested or is the project's chosen media provider.
Make a portrait speak, react or perform supplied audio with Magic Hour, or lip-sync an existing video to replacement speech. Use for character dialogue, talking photos, presenters and language versions with audio-first timing; not generic text-to-video.
Turn an idea into a short Magic Hour video when no exact identity or starting frame is required. Use for original surreal scenes, visual jokes, atmosphere or concept exploration; use Image-to-Video for an approved person, character or composition.
Create readable, truthful video thumbnails and covers with Magic Hour, preserving supplied faces and products and testing composition at small display size. Use for YouTube thumbnails, Shorts covers, or episode covers, not a general product catalog set.
Edit or repurpose existing footage with Magic Hour, choosing between generative visual edits, subtitles, and precise local trim, crop or composition. Use for a source video that needs changes or social versions, not a new video from scratch.
