Agent guidance
- Pass standard Remotion Caption objects in chronological order and preserve leading spaces when importing tokenized transcript data.
- Use karaoke for social video, boxed for strong contrast over footage, and minimal for restrained editorial work.
- Import calculateAnimatedCaptionsDuration to derive the scene duration from the last caption end time.
- Keep three to six short words visible at once and choose textColor for sufficient contrast with the underlying footage.
- Animated Captions is a transparent overlay and should be layered above the associated video or visual scene.
