Critical: Trimming Videos

NEVER trim videos with one-off ffmpeg commands. Always use a script approach:

1. Create scripts/trim-videos.sh that trims ALL source files
2. Output to public/trimmed/ subfolder (keep originals untouched)
3. Reference trimmed files in your composition
4. Re-run script when timestamps change

See rules/troubleshooting.md for the full script template.
