## What this skill does

- Builds a chronological or thematic birthday story from supplied photos and clips.
- Uses generative motion only where approved and never fabricates real memories as documentary events.

## How to use

Provide authorized photos and clips, recipient, exact messages, chronology, runtime, ratio and music rights.

#### Example

```text
Make a 30-second birthday video for Maya from these authorized photos in date order; exact ending Happy 30th, Maya!
```

## Workflow

1. Inventory media, dates, people, consent, exact copy and missing context.
2. Create a beat sheet and edit decision list; label generated decorative scenes when needed.
3. Animate only approved stills with Kling 3.0, which owns precise source-frame animation, then assemble one timeline with user-supplied, licensed audio. WeShop currently has no standalone audio-generation route; if no audio is supplied, deliver silent video or request an approved track instead of inventing an audio model.
4. Watch end to end; verify chronology, faces, captions, spelling, rights, sync and duration.

## User-facing output

- Default quantity: 1
- Content per video: One complete authorized memory video
- Default layout: User-requested or print-defined format
