muapi-storyboard-to-cooking-video
Turn a single photo of a person into a 15-second cinematic pasta-making (or other cuisine) tutorial video. First builds a composite reference sheet (character + kitchen + 9-step action board), then animates the full cooking sequence with audio in a single continuous shot.
Why this skill is useful
Adds a complex video generation workflow with specific commands and parameters for creating cinematic cooking tutorials that the AI cannot generate on its own.

What this skill does
Storyboard to Cooking Video Turn a single photo of a person into a polished 15-second cinematic cooking tutorial. The skill first generates a high-end production reference sheet — character look, kitchen environment, and a 9-panel action board — then drives a continuous reference-to-video render that keeps the subject's face, outfit, and kitchen consistent across every frame. Inputs Name Type Required Default Description :--- :--- :--- :--- :--- personimage imageurl yes — URL of the person photo. Used as identity reference in BOTH the reference sheet and the final video. dish text no fresh pasta The cooking subject (e.g. "fresh pasta", "sushi rolls", "wood-fired pizza", "matcha latte"). Drives the 9-step action board. kitchenstyle text no warm rustic-modern Italian The kitchen aesthetic (e.g. "warm rustic-modern Italian", "minimalist Tokyo", "bright Scandinavian", "moody industrial"). outfit text no white t-shirt, olive green apron, dark trousers What the person wears throughout the video. durationseconds int no 15 Final video duration. Use 15 for the full 9-step arc; 10 collapses to ~6 beats. aspectratio text no 16:9 Output aspect ratio. Use 9:16 for vertical/Reels. resolution text no 720p Video resolution. Options: 480p, 720p. Steps Submit the plan with TWO sequential steps. Step 2 depends on the output of Step 1. Step 1 — Reference Sheet (Composite Storyboard) Generate the composite "production reference board" image. This is a single image, NOT a video frame — it bundles character sheet + location reference + 9-panel action board. Endpoint: gpt-image-v2-edit CLI: Wait for completion and capture the output URL as {{referencesheeturl}}. Show it to the user and confirm the character likeness + kitchen mood before moving to Step 2 — Step 2 is the expensive call. Step 2 — Cooking Video (Reference-to-Video) Animate the full sequence using both the original person photo (identity anchor) and the reference sheet (narrative + environment guide) as dual references. …
