Timeline Assembly Protocol

1. Video Layering: Stitch extended video clips (scene_1_clip_01.mp4 + scene_1_clip_02.mp4 -> scene_1.mp4).
2. Audio Layering: Mix Narration (0 dB), Dialogue (0 dB), SFX (-12 dB), and BGM (-18 dB to -22 dB ducked under speech).
3. Subtitles & SRT: Generate word-for-word timed subtitles aligned to narration.
4. Transitions: Standard crossfades (0.5s) between scenes or simple cuts.

Human Review Checklist

• Is total video runtime aligned with target duration (180s)?
• Are narration audio and character dialogue synchronized with visual actions?
• Is background music ducked properly so speech remains crystal clear?
• Are subtitle timestamps accurate and easy to read?
