# Slide Content Generator Skill
|
|
|
|
Generate slide content (image prompts or text) from Gnommo manuscript files.
|
|
|
|
## Context
|
|
|
|
Gnommo presentations use a **square slide area next to a talking head**. Slides should be:
|
|
- Visually impactful but not cluttered
|
|
- Timed to appear with the first word after the `[SX]` marker
|
|
- Either **image-based** (generated via AI) or **text-based** (minimal, punchy text)
|
|
|
|
## Manuscript Format
|
|
|
|
Manuscripts use slide markers like `[S1]`, `[S2]`, etc. The content following each marker is what the presenter says while that slide is displayed.
|
|
|
|
```
|
|
[S1]
|
|
Welcome to the course...
|
|
|
|
[S2]
|
|
What if the universe is discrete?
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
## Workflow
|
|
|
|
### Step 1: Read the Manuscript
|
|
|
|
```
|
|
Read the file: /path/to/manuscript.txt
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
### Step 2: Analyze Each Slide
|
|
|
|
For each `[SX]` marker, determine:
|
|
1. **What is the core message?** - The key idea being communicated
|
|
2. **Visual or text?** - Would an image or text better support the message?
|
|
3. **Emotional tone?** - Dramatic, contemplative, humorous, technical?
|
|
|
|
### Step 3: Generate Content
|
|
|
|
For each slide, output one of:
|
|
|
|
#### IMAGE PROMPT
|
|
For conceptual, emotional, or complex ideas that benefit from visualization.
|
|
|
|
```
|
|
**[SX]** - "First few words..."
|
|
**IMAGE PROMPT:**
|
|
`Detailed description for AI image generation, style, mood, composition, lighting, specific elements to include`
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
#### TEXT SLIDE
|
|
For lists, key terms, definitions, or when words ARE the point.
|
|
|
|
```
|
|
**[SX]** - "First few words..."
|
|
**TEXT SLIDE:**
|
|
```
|
|
HEADLINE
|
|
|
|
• Bullet point
|
|
• Another point
|
|
```
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
## Guidelines
|
|
|
|
### When to Use IMAGE PROMPTS
|
|
|
|
- Abstract concepts (e.g., "the fabric of spacetime")
|
|
- Metaphors and analogies (e.g., "like changing engines while driving")
|
|
- Emotional moments (e.g., "this sounds insane")
|
|
- Scene-setting (e.g., "imagine a Minecraft universe")
|
|
|
|
### When to Use TEXT SLIDES
|
|
|
|
- Lists of items being enumerated
|
|
- Technical terms being defined
|
|
- Key questions or frameworks
|
|
- Course titles, section headers
|
|
- Quotes or key phrases
|
|
|
|
### Image Prompt Best Practices
|
|
|
|
1. **Be specific about style**: "isometric illustration", "cinematic lighting", "minimal vector style"
|
|
2. **Include mood/tone**: "mysterious", "hopeful", "dramatic contrast"
|
|
3. **Describe composition**: "split image", "centered subject", "deep space background"
|
|
4. **Avoid text in images**: AI image generators struggle with text - use text slides instead
|
|
5. **Keep it achievable**: Don't describe impossibly complex scenes
|
|
|
|
### Text Slide Best Practices
|
|
|
|
1. **Minimal words**: 3-7 words per line, 1-5 lines max
|
|
2. **Use hierarchy**: HEADLINES in caps, details below
|
|
3. **Bullets for lists**: Keep them short and scannable
|
|
4. **Leave breathing room**: Don't fill the entire square
|
|
|
|
## Output Format
|
|
|
|
Output slides in order, with clear separation:
|
|
|
|
```markdown
|
|
---
|
|
|
|
**[S1]** - "First words of narration..."
|
|
**TYPE:** (IMAGE PROMPT or TEXT SLIDE)
|
|
Content here
|
|
|
|
---
|
|
|
|
**[S2]** - "First words of narration..."
|
|
...
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
## Example Output
|
|
|
|
---
|
|
|
|
**[S1]** - "Welcome to Glitch.University..."
|
|
**TEXT SLIDE:**
|
|
```
|
|
GLITCH.UNIVERSITY
|
|
WTF_#1
|
|
|
|
What is Glitch University?
|
|
```
|
|
|
|

|
|
|
|
**[S2]** - "What if the universe is fundamentally discrete..."
|
|
**IMAGE PROMPT:**
|
|
`A hyper-detailed Minecraft-style voxel universe, showing galaxies and stars rendered as tiny glowing cubes, deep space background with blocky nebulae, cosmic scale but pixelated, dark background with vibrant cube-shaped stars, cinematic lighting`
|

## Customization Options
|
|
|
|
### Style Presets
|
|
|
|
You can request specific visual styles:
|
|
- **Tech/Corporate**: Clean vectors, isometric, blues and whites
|
|
- **Cosmic/Physics**: Deep space, nebulae, particle effects
|
|
- **Playful/Minecraft**: Voxels, bright colors, blocky
|
|
- **Philosophical**: Abstract, minimal, contemplative
|
|
- **Dramatic**: High contrast, cinematic, intense lighting
|
|
|
|
### Text Tone
|
|
|
|
- **Academic**: Formal terminology, structured
|
|
- **Casual**: Conversational, approachable
|
|
- **Punchy**: Short, impactful, memorable
|
|
|
|
## Integration with Gnommo
|
|
|
|
The generated content can be used to:
|
|
1. Create slides in Keynote/PowerPoint
|
|
2. Generate images via Midjourney/DALL-E/Stable Diffusion
|
|
3. Populate the `slides.json` file in the project's media folder
|
|
|
|
## Tips
|
|
|
|
- Read the ENTIRE manuscript first to understand the arc
|
|
- Match slide density to pacing - fast sections need simpler slides
|
|
- Create visual continuity - recurring metaphors should have consistent imagery
|
|
- Consider what the talking head is doing - slides complement, not compete
