What this skill does

• Adds a bounded effect such as glow, particles, flare, weather or speed treatment.
• Anchors timing, target, duration and interaction so the effect does not become a full restyle.

How to use

Provide video, exact effect, target, start and end time, intensity and protected content.

Example

Add a subtle golden particle trail behind the skateboard from 00:02–00:04; preserve rider, board and camera.

Workflow

1. Locate effect interval, tracked target, occlusions and protected regions.
2. Specify onset, evolution, interaction, intensity and exit as one bounded effect.
3. Run MiniMax H3, the cataloged source-video editing model, with bounded temporal and regional instructions.
4. Inspect frames before, during and after for tracking, spill, timing and preservation.
