# Globe Arcs Film

> A data film about one place reaching many, on a slowly turning dot-matrix globe. Glowing arcs fly from your hub along great circles to 6 to 10 destinations, each one as thick and bright as its value, and every landing rings the city and counts up its tag. The camera pushes in on 3 to 5 highlighted routes for big stat callouts with the city, the number, your story and its share of the network, then pulls back so every route lands while the total counts up. It ends on a planet-rise card with your brand. The globe is drawn with plain canvas maths over Natural Earth land, in a night or a paper look, with an original soundtrack locked to the picture.

- Output: Video, MP4 · 25–40 s · 1080p · with music

## What you need

- Node.js 22 or newer and FFmpeg on the PATH.
- HyperFrames through `npx`, pinned: `npx --yes hyperframes@0.8.192`. The first render downloads its own headless Chrome (`npx --yes hyperframes@0.8.192 browser ensure` if it says Chrome is missing).
- Network access to `fonts.googleapis.com` and `cdn.jsdelivr.net` (GSAP) while rendering. If jsDelivr is blocked, set `GSAP_FILE` to a local `gsap.min.js` (3.14.2) and `make-film.mjs` uses it.
- From the user: the hub, 6 to 10 destinations with latitude, longitude and one number each, which 3 to 5 routes to tell a story about (a title and a line each), the unit, the brand name, tagline and URL. Ask whether the numbers are real; if they are not, the note must say "illustrative data".

## Install

```bash
curl -fsSL https://lookbk.dev/cli.js | node - add globe-arcs-film
```

The first run prints a sign-in link; open it, approve, and run the command again. Pro skills install for accounts that bought them or have Pro.

Where it installs:

- Run by Claude Code: `~/.claude/skills/globe-arcs-film` only, the one folder Claude Code reads.
- From your own terminal: `~/.agents/skills/globe-arcs-film`, which Codex, Gemini CLI, Copilot CLI, Cursor and OpenCode read, and also `~/.claude/skills/globe-arcs-film` when `~/.claude` exists.

Add `--claude` or `--shared` to write only one of those folders, or `--project` to install into the current folder instead. Start a new agent session afterwards so it picks up the skill.
