Lyric music video

A music video that is a pure function of song time: frame = render(t). The browser preview and the offline export are identical, so every idea can be checked on a contact sheet before a long render. Motion comes from code (springs, cameras, cuts, typography); pictures come from generated stills (character poses, props, stickers, textures). No video model is involved, which keeps the result sharp, on the beat and cheap to change.

The engine is mexicat/pdoom-video (MIT) plus this skill's patch. The worked example is "Pink Boots, Export Doors" (a 3-minute synth-pop song, 3 worlds: phone OS, Y2K scrapbook, pop-art comic). It is an example, not the house style: examples/pink-boots/README.md.
