Purpose

The production line for the "creator selfie + PiP sample clips" listicle format — a 9:16 short where a creator faces camera and narrates N numbered items, each accompanied by a picture-in-picture sample clip that swaps in the top-right corner. The creator's body stays mostly fixed; only their head moves (lip sync) and the pointing hand can sustain a gesture for the whole beat. The structure is:

• Hook (no PiP) — title pill appears, creator hooks ("Seven content formats…")
• Beats 1..N — title pill stays, beat label swaps in lower-center, PiP swaps in top-right with view-count badge + white hairline border + rounded corners. Audio: creator VO + PiP-clip audio (ducked to ~0.18) + a pop SFX on swap.
• CTA (no PiP) — title pill clears, creator addresses camera directly.

Use when:

• The user wants "N tools", "N AI workflows", "N content formats", "N apps you should install", "5 tips for X", etc.
• They want an AI creator (no real footage) — i.e. they don't have a live actor available.
• They want to show actual example clips of the things being talked about — PiP is the affordance.
