Dvar Torah Animation — הנפשת דרשות

Overview

Turn a drasha into a polished 9:16 animated reel: narration (TTS or supplied) + per-word niqqud karaoke captions + a fast-cut illustrated background where every shot is timed to the exact second the narrator reaches its topic, finished with a credit endcard. Built and proven on the Chukat — זוגיות ופרנסה video.

Core principle — the visual must never precede the audio. A boring drasha video is one where 11 illustrations each sit on screen for 15-20s. A great one cuts every ~5s to a new image that matches the words being spoken right now. Getting that sync exactly right is the whole game, and it has one non-obvious trap (the intro-silence offset) documented below.
