What you get

  • A 1080×1920, 1080×1080 or 1920×1080 MP4 of your photos cut on the beat, with its own original music
  • An original soundtrack with sound effects on every cut, slam and the brand, synthesised on your machine, with nothing to license
  • Seven mask transitions, including your logo mark on the drop, each opening from the focal point you set
  • Speed-ramped camera moves and up to three-word title slams on frozen duotone frames
  • One grade for the whole film (natural, duotone in your colours or warm film) with grain, light leaks and a designed frame
  • An end card with your mark, a filmstrip of every photo, a button and an address on the final hit
  • Open-source licenses for every part it builds on

Good fit

  • A travel, venue or lifestyle brand with a folder of good photos and no time to edit video.
  • A team that wants the same photos as a 9:16 reel, a 1:1 post and a 16:9 cut without re-editing.
  • A launch or season recap where three-word title slams carry the message between photos.

Not for

  • Video clips: it cuts still photos only
  • Fewer than 6 or more than 14 photos
  • Long captions or subtitles over the photos
  • Vocals or a licensed hit song, since the music is synthesised

About this skill

Your own photos cut to an original beat-synced soundtrack as an agency-style social edit, not a slideshow. Every photo enters on a beat through a different mask led by a band of your accent colour: slats, blinds, an iris, a diagonal, split panels, tiles, or your own logo mark on the drop. Each one rides a speed-ramped camera move about a focal point you give, so a subject on the right of a landscape photo stays framed in 9:16. Title slams freeze a photo into a duotone and stamp up to three words, one per beat. One grade covers the film, with grain, light leaks, a matte and a progress rail drawn in code, and the brand lands on the music's final hit.

Example request

Cut these 8 photos of our trips into a vertical beat-synced short with two three-word title slams and a duotone grade in our colours, ending on our logo with a Plan a trip button.

FAQ

How do I stop a face or product being cropped out?

Give each photo a focal point as fractions of the frame, like [0.7, 0.4] for 70% across and 40% down. The crop keeps that point as near the middle as the photo allows, the camera moves about it, and the iris, slats, tiles and logo masks open from it.

What size should my photos be?

JPEG or PNG, ideally at least 1080 px on the short side. The checker warns below that and refuses photos under half of it, because a 9:16 crop of a small landscape photo is an upscale and looks soft.

Can my logo be a transition?

Yes. Give your mark as one SVG path in the brief and the cut on the music's drop opens through it, growing from the focal point until it fills the frame. The mark also sits as a small badge in the corner and becomes the end card.

Which agents is Photo Beat Montage written for?

Any agent that reads SKILL.md folders, including Claude Code, Codex, Cursor, GitHub Copilot, Gemini CLI and OpenCode.

Do I own what I make with it?

Yes. Everything your agent makes with this skill is yours, including for client and commercial work.
