Step 2 of the AI Video Editor pipeline — build the visual beats (Remotion TSX shots) over a project's master cut and bake a composited preview. Use when the user wants to add/edit overlays or full-screen animation segments, "make a shot / beat", implement an edit plan or a v2 update, retime a beat to the narration, re-render shots, or re-bake the video-N preview in this repo. Covers reading the plan + edited-transcript + brand + reusable kit, authoring shots library-first, syncing reveals to word times, updating timeline.json (cutaway vs overlay), rendering, verifying by screenshot, and baking with tools/bake.py. Defers raw TSX authoring rules to vidtsx-2d-generator and the cut itself to clean-cut.

make-tsx — build the visual beats over the master

Step 2 of the pipeline: take an approved master cut and its timing spine and produce the animated beats — UI/browser mockups, full-screen statements, diagrams, image reveals — then composite them over the master into a preview. Work collaboratively and beat-by-beat; the user gives notes per beat.

This is the project orchestration. For the low-level rules of writing a single crash-free Remotion file (frame-based only, monotonic interpolate, Easing.bezier, no useState/useEffect, import gotchas), use the vidtsx-2d-generator skill — shots here follow those rules.

Inputs (read these first, every session)

• The plan — videos/video-N/work/edit-plan.md (or a change list like v2-update-plan.md). The source of truth for what to build. If there's a change list from a review, that overrides; apply it, don't re-litigate settled beats.
• videos/video-N/work/timeline.json — maps each shot → its span on the master + type. You edit this. (Schema below.)
• videos/video-N/work/edited-transcript.json — word-level times in master timeline (ms).
