## Description

Create reusable black-background white-text opening animations for new videos. Use when the user asks for "黑底白字开场", "纯黑加白字", "白色文字逐渐出来", "一个个字出来", "打字效果", "打字音效", "字体变化开头", "opening title animation", "kinetic text opener", or a short black-and-white intro before a HyperFrames, Remotion, ffmpeg, SaaS/product, tutorial, commentary, or course video. This is for original opener creation, not pixel-level reference matching.

# Black White Text Opener

## Role

Create a short, reusable opening animation: black background, large white text
that appears one character at a time, synchronized typing click SFX, optional
word replacement, and a clean transition into the main video.

This skill is generative. Do not copy source frames or promise pixel-level
alignment with a reference. If the user asks to exactly match an existing video,
route to `rn-replica-qc` first.

## Required Reads

Before building an opener, read:

1. `references/motion-contract.md`
2. `references/timing-presets.md`

Read `references/tool-recipes.md` when choosing HyperFrames, Remotion, or ffmpeg.

## Inputs

Collect or infer:

- main opening phrase
- optional replacement words or contrast words
- final hold phrase, logo text, or next-scene lead-in
- target ratio and resolution
- duration preset: `micro`, `standard`, or `slow`
- tone: cinematic, clean tutorial, product launch, or opinion opener
- transition into the next scene: fade, white velocity wipe, text smear, or cut
- typing cadence and SFX preference, default `14 chars/s` with subtle key clicks

If the user gives only a topic, write 2-3 short phrase options and choose the
cleanest one. Avoid long sentences.

## Defaults

- Duration: `standard` 4.8-5.8s.
- Background: pure or near black, no busy decorative background.
- Text: large white sans-serif, centered or slightly above center.
- Motion: black hold -> white text types in character by character -> phrase
  holds -> replacement text types in -> final typed phrase holds -> transition
  out.
- Audio: quiet typing clicks aligned to visible character appearances. Do not
  add clicks during black hold, final hold, or transition-only frames.
- Build tool: HyperFrames for polished video projects; Remotion when the project
  already uses Remotion; ffmpeg only for simple utility openers.

## Workflow

### 1. Create The Timing Plan
