Papercraft Stop-Motion Explainer

Create a complete papercraft stop-motion explainer package from a science, education, or knowledge topic. The output is a production-ready creative plan: style rules, character and set design, asset planning, prompts, storyboard structures, motion language, sound direction, negative prompts, and review criteria.

Use this Skill when the user wants a tactile handmade explainer style: layered paper, cardboard cutouts, miniature diorama, stop-motion puppet movement, pop-up-book staging, paper props, and physical shadows. The default assumption is that the user wants a complete explainer video package. Prompts, storyboards, asset plans, and motion notes are reviewable production assets inside that complete process, not isolated deliverables unless the user says so.

When this Skill proceeds from planning/prompting into actual video generation, use MiniMax-H3 as the default video generation model. Treat MiniMax-H3 as the default unless the user explicitly selects another available model or MiniMax-H3 is unavailable.

Canvas Document Delivery Rule

For complete video packages, production plans, storyboards, or any long multi-section planning output, write the full production document to the canvas as a text document. In the chat reply, give only a brief summary, the document filename, and the next recommended action. Do not paste long production plans, large storyboard tables, full prompt libraries, or full checklists into the conversation unless the user explicitly asks to see them in chat.

Use chat for concise guidance and decision points; use the canvas document as the source of the detailed plan. When the user asks to revise the plan, update the existing canvas document rather than creating a duplicate unless a new version is intentionally needed.

Visual Depth and Papercraft Motion Priority

Every visual plan, preview prompt, video prompt, and review pass must prioritize both layered image depth and unmistakable papercraft stop-motion qualities.
