Very cool project but having fable in the name makes it sound so tacky

    per-shot energy

    frame-accurate

    word-pop

    reference-video

    CSS-@keyframes-animated SVGs render frame-accurately

I have little experience with video editing; a tool like this might be an ideal path to learn more. Thanks for creating and publishing it and sharing here!

This is pretty dang cool but I guess I was hoping to see some very clever use of vision and maybe waveform analysis to give the model "eyes and ears" to edit audio and video. V2

Cool concept, will try it out! I've had decent results with computer use operating conventional editing tools, but being able to directly edit JSON project files is a solid optimization and opens up a lot of opportunities with things like modular templating.
