Video Workbench

Video Workbench is the production workspace for dimensional output: turning deep essays, models, and ideas into short public-facing video packages.

It is a sibling of Writing Workbench, not a subfolder of it.

Position

Knowledge Vault      = source archive, formal essays, human model documents, historical discussions
Writing Workbench    = deep article production workspace
Video Workbench      = dimensional video output production workspace
CCPE System          = AI cognitive asset engineering workspace
Delivery Systems     = deployable external agentic products

Mission

This workspace manages the process of extracting one or two accessible points from deep essays or models and producing a video-ready package, usually under 10 minutes.

It preserves:

• series architecture
• episode scope
• angle proposals
• selected angle
• video outline
• global visual style
• storyboard logic
• shot-level deep production
• voiceover script
• image prompts
• generated image/audio assets
• editing notes
• publishing copy

Boundaries

• Deep essays and human model documents remain in knowledge-vault.
• Deep article creation remains in writing-workbench.
• Actors, Skills, Model Cards, and Runtimes are maintained in ccpe-system.
• Manual editing and publishing remain human-controlled unless explicitly automated later.

Starting A New Session

In a new Codex session opened on this project, use:

Please read README.md, VIDEO_WORKBENCH.md, docs/context-handoff.md, and docs/ccpe-system-handoff.md first, then continue work on Video Workbench according to those conventions.
