Dotey shares full prompt + open-source skill for generating AI history documentary videos
dotey · x · 2026-10-26
Dotey shares a complete workflow for generating history-style explainer videos with AI: the open-source baocut skill (SKILL.md on GitHub by JimLiu) handles editing, subtitles and export, Gemini TTS provides narration, all driven by Claude Opus 5.5.
He publishes his full prompt template: turn a figure's speech at a given occasion into a historical video, opening with 3-4 minutes of context on who the person was and why the speech mattered, with a recognizable cover photo. The output should mix footage, maps, timelines, newspaper headlines and word-by-word quote highlights rather than feel like a slideshow; non-Chinese speeches get bilingual subtitles and chapters. Workflow: confirm a brief first, review via a link, export last.
