Cuts on phrase boundaries
Cut points snap to narration phrase boundaries from word-level timing, so the edit breathes with the read instead of chopping across it. Shot-length targets tighten through escalation and loosen at resolution.

Machine-readable brief
Cut points snap to narration phrase boundaries from word-level timing, so the edit breathes with the read instead of chopping across it. Shot-length targets tighten through escalation and loosen at resolution.
Spot effects, room tone changes and silence beats are marked with intent rather than left to taste, which makes the same brief reproducible across thirty episodes.
Sample output · Episode 07 · The Dead Sea Copper Scroll
Motion blocks in shot order, one graded still from the same set, and the normalised narration stem. Nothing here is conformed or colour-matched after the fact — this is the raw material you drop on a timeline.

Narration stem
Single-take read of the approved script, loudness-normalised and free of music so you can place your own bed and duck it where the edit brief marks it.
