Nate Herk's kit to edit talking-head videos, reels and Shorts: silence and flub cuts, storytelling, motion graphics.

What it does

From YouTuber Nate Herk: 15 skills that edit a raw talking-head recording end to end. The edit-video skill chains transcription, silence trimming (cut-silences), retake and stutter removal (cut-mistakes), visual storytelling, motion graphics from a 406-card library and verified HyperFrames rendering; short-form skills cut reels and YouTube Shorts, and motion-showreel builds animated showreels. It bundles HyperFrames and GSAP reference skills, works in Claude Code and Codex, and calls ElevenLabs or Kie.ai only when you add their keys.
