Video packaging Skills add a consistent motion-graphics look to a talking-head video: giant type, callouts, data cards, highlighter strokes, and similar on-screen graphics that land on what the speaker says. ChatCut lists them under **Motion Graphics Styles**. You give a video of one presenter speaking to camera. The Agent returns an editable timeline with the graphics already placed.

There are 11 styles, and each one is its own Skill. They run in ChatCut Web and ChatCut Desktop. Two of them, Wireframe Style and Monochrome Magazine, run in ChatCut Desktop only.

## How do I choose a style?

Match the style to the topic and the tone of your video. Every style has a short description on its Skill page and a preview in the Skill library (select **View all** above). These are the five most used styles in the last 30 days:

-   **Runway Rebel.** Huge bold white type with slim bright-yellow numerals, laid straight over your footage. Suits hot takes, fashion, and creator advice.
-   **Redline Tech.** A black dot-matrix spec table with a red highlighted row. Specs and numbers appear as you mention them. Suits tech, camera, and gadget reviews.
-   **Highlight Moments.** Off-white paper, charcoal text, and a single yellow highlighter stroke on the key line. Quiet and restrained. Suits study tips, knowledge sharing, and book notes.
-   **Electric Impact Type.** Deep navy with bright red accents, giant condensed numbers, data bars, and full-screen quotes. Suits business and startup talks with data and strong opinions.
-   **Editorial Explainer.** Notebook chapter pages, grey-paper data charts, and yellow highlighter marks, alternating with your on-camera shots like a news explainer. Suits news explainers, current affairs, and data stories.

The rest of the family:

-   **Brainstorm Breeze.** Handwriting on whiteboard paper, blue and coral marker strokes, and arrows between ideas. Suits explainers and whiteboard lessons.
-   **Red-Pen Rewind.** Typewriter type, archive paper, and a red pen that circles, strikes out, and rewrites key numbers. Suits history, investigations, and fact-checks.
-   **Orange Unfiltered.** Giant grainy orange type, in front of and behind you. Suits punchy, fast-paced talks with a strong point of view.
-   **Real Footage to Handpainted Style.** Turns real footage into moving, handpainted scenes, with split screens and expressive typography. You can also upload B-roll, which is used first.
-   **Wireframe Style** (Desktop only). Keywords pop in with your speech, and relevant objects flash from live footage into fine wireframes. Suits creative tips, gear introductions, and product explainers.
-   **Monochrome Magazine** (Desktop only). Black-and-white editorial layouts frame the presenter, with image-filled type in natural color.

## What do I need before I start?

-   **A talking-head video.** One presenter speaking to camera, with clear audio. You can upload up to 20 videos in the form.
-   **Optional notes.** Key points, names, or numbers you want highlighted. The form’s **Notes** field takes up to 1,000 characters.
-   **Optional B-roll** for Real Footage to Handpainted Style only. Without B-roll, the Agent searches for matching supporting shots.
-   **Credits.** The packaging is done by the built-in Agent. Agent messages and Motion Graphics generation use credits, and the amount varies with your video and request. See [Credits](https://pr-797-preview.chatcut.dev/docs/credits-policy).

## How do I run a packaging Skill?

1.  Open the Skill from its page on [chatcut.io/skills](https://pr-797-preview.chatcut.dev/skills), from **Home**, or from **Skills** in the AI composer.
2.  Upload your video. Add notes if you have them.
3.  Select **Start creating**. The Skill hands the work to the Agent in ChatCut.
4.  Review the packaged timeline. Ask the Agent for changes in the same project, or edit by hand.

### Fill in the form

All the styles in this family share the same short form. This is the Runway Rebel form. Try it here: it opens ChatCut with your choices filled in.

Try the form

Try the Runway Rebel form on its [Skill page](https://pr-797-preview.chatcut.dev/skills/motion-graphics?template=mg-packaging-runway-rebel).

[](https://pr-797-preview.chatcut.dev/skills/motion-graphics?template=mg-packaging-runway-rebel)

| Field | Options | What it changes |
| --- | --- | --- |
| **Talking-head video** | Upload or drop one or more videos (up to 20) | The footage to package. Clear audio and a single presenter work best |
| **Notes** | Optional text, up to 1,000 characters | Key points, names, or numbers to emphasize in the graphics |

The style itself is fixed by the Skill you chose. To try another look, open another style’s page.

Real Footage to Handpainted Style uses the same two fields. Its upload field also takes B-roll.

## Prompts you can copy

You can also attach a style from **Skills** in the AI composer and describe the video yourself.

Prompt

```text
Use Redline Tech on @phone-review. Highlight the camera, battery, and price specs when I say them. Keep the footage's own look unchanged and do not add captions.
```

Prompt

```text
Package @study-tips with Highlight Moments. Emphasize the three tips as I list them and the final takeaway. Leave my face clear in every frame.
```

Prompt

```text
Use Editorial Explainer on @market-update. Show the two numbers I quote as chart cards, then return to the camera for each opinion.
```

## What does ChatCut do for me?

1.  **Cleans up first, if needed.** If the footage has obvious flubs, repeats, or long pauses, the Agent tidies them before packaging. Otherwise it keeps the footage as it is. It tells you which one it did.
2.  **Applies the style.** The Skill fixes the Design Style, so the Agent builds directly without asking you to pick a look. See [Design Styles](https://pr-797-preview.chatcut.dev/docs/design-styles).
3.  **Sets the canvas.** Vertical footage gives a 1080 by 1920 timeline and landscape footage gives 1920 by 1080, unless you ask for something else.
4.  **Places graphics where the speech lands.** Titles, callouts, numbers, and emphasis follow what the presenter says. See [Motion Graphics](https://pr-797-preview.chatcut.dev/docs/motion-graphics).
5.  **Leaves the rest alone.** It does not add captions, a film look, a color grade, or grain unless you ask. For captions, see [Caption styles](https://pr-797-preview.chatcut.dev/docs/caption-styles).

## What do I get?

You get an editable timeline, not a flat render. The graphics are editable Motion Graphics, so you can change their text and other exposed properties on the canvas, or ask the Agent to revise them. The Agent summarizes what it cleaned up and what it added. Export when you are happy with the result.

## What are the limits and tips?

-   **One presenter, clear audio.** The style descriptions say this gives the best result.
-   **Some styles suit some topics.** Redline Tech is built for spec-style content, and Red-Pen Rewind is built around numbers and evidence. Pick the one that matches what you say.
-   **Revise in the same project.** Name the graphic and the change, such as a new headline, a different accent, or a shorter hold.
-   **Desktop-only styles.** Wireframe Style and Monochrome Magazine do not run in ChatCut Web.
-   **Review before export.** Play the whole video and check that no graphic covers the speaker’s face.
