Six transitions with exact presets and the editing rules behind them: photo collage burst, Droste recursive zoom into a screen, impact tile-flip mosaic, bokeh light-spot transition, 3D photo cloud gallery and a camera-shake distort cut. Presets give the core length in frames, where the peak lands on the beat, log-space zooms, shake amplitude, frequency and decay, motion-blur shutter angle, bokeh sizes, tile counts and stagger, from Walter Murch, Dan Ebberts' decaying-sine expression, Boris FX…
Collected from public GitHub. Every version is saved exactly as it was and never changes. Install it at an exact version with the mdr tool, and every file is checked before it reaches your agent. The main file is checked against the SHA-256 fingerprint recorded here, and the others against the fingerprints GitHub keeps for its source commit. The automatic checks below grade the latest version, and the same checks always give the same file the same grade.
What the file says
# Transition craft: six transitions timed the way editors cut Six transitions that hide the cut at the moment of peak coverage and land that peak on the beat. Zooms run in log space, shakes decay, and the settle carries the length rather than the effect. ## Gates - **Beat first.** Get the beat grid (or the cut points) before timing anything; transitions peak on the downbeat or one frame before it. - **Your own media.** Photos and clips in collages and galleries must be the person's own or licensed. - **Seek-safe.** Every value is a function of timeline time; randomness is seeded by frame. No `Date.now()`, `requestAnimationFrame` or unseeded `Math.random()`. - **No credits here.** These templates render locally for free. Generated footage, voice or music is the varg-ai skill: call `estimate_cost` and wait for the person's approval before any generation. ## Pick a template 6 templates, 29 presets. Each reference file has the same sections: how the pros do it (every rule cited), presets, timing and numbers, how to build it, mistakes that look amateur, sources. Each JSON file holds the same presets as machine-readable values. | Template | Use it for | Presets | Files | …

How to install
mdr add varghq/skills/transition-craft@sha256:2e7484af02bd58f6The line at the top of this page pins the label v0.1.0, which is what most people want. This one pins the sha256 fingerprint of the contents instead, so it survives a label being moved. Either way the exact version is written to mdr.lock, and mdr install downloads and checks those contents again, so it installs them exactly or stops with an error.
