What this skill does
Shoot software UI like a film. A sequence of hero shots, each a steep, oblique, extreme close-up of the interface floating in black, with a razor-thin focal plane, a slow motivated camera drift, and UI that acts on its own, hard-cut on the action, ending on one line of copy and a still logo. Use when asked for a launch video, product film, feature trailer, teaser, promo clip, hero shot, or any "cinematic" footage of an app or UI. This skill covers camera, framing, light, and edit.
When it triggers
