MuAPI Director

Turn a topic, talking-head video, or photo into a finished Vox-style paper-collage video: a bold, punchy, narrated explainer/ad where each beat is a torn-paper collage poster that comes alive, with voice-over, music and captions. Powered by MuAPI (MUAPI_API_KEY) + local ffmpeg.

Input Modalities

1. B-roll (topic → film): Pass a topic (e.g. "A brief history of Silicon Valley"). It drafts a script, builds keyframe posters, animates them, synthesizes narration/BGM, and assembles the video.
2. A-roll (talking-head video → collage): Pass a presenter talking-head recording. It runs ASR, segments the transcript, and re-styles the video into paper-collage graphics while preserving facial features, lip-sync, and gestures frame-for-frame.
3. C-roll (one photo → collage): Pass a selfie or product shot. The subject is cut out as an unedited photographic sticker, anchored into generated collage posters per beat, and animated.

Prerequisites

• MUAPI_API_KEY set in your environment (get one from https://muapi.ai).
• ffmpeg + ffprobe installed on system path.
• Python 3 with Pillow (pip install pillow).
