name: Remotion Video Styling description: Inline React styling for Remotion video components using theme constants. Use this when styling video compositions, positioning elements on the 1080x1920 canvas, or applying colors/fonts from src/lib/theme.ts. No external CSS files - all styles are inline objects.

Remotion Video Styling

This Skill provides Claude Code with specific guidance on how it should handle styling in Remotion video compositions.

When to use this skill:

• Styling any video composition or component
• Positioning elements on the 1080x1920 canvas
• Applying colors, fonts, or spacing from theme.ts
• Creating layout structures with absolute positioning
• Implementing responsive sizing using VIDEO_CONFIG
• Defining inline style objects for React components

Instructions

• Inline Styles: Remotion uses React inline styles; define styles as objects with camelCase properties
• Design Tokens: Use theme constants from src/lib/theme.ts for colors, fonts, and spacing
• Absolute Positioning: Video elements use absolute positioning for precise layout control
• Video Dimensions: All layouts designed for 1080x1920 (9:16 portrait) from VIDEO_CONFIG
• Typography: Use system fonts or included fonts (Noto Color Emoji); specify in theme.ts
• No CSS Files: Remotion compositions don't use external CSS files; all styles are inline React styles

Examples:

// Good: Theme constants, inline styles, absolute positioning
import { theme, VIDEO_CONFIG } from '@/lib/theme';

export const BookCover: React.FC = () => (
  <div style={{
    position: 'absolute',
    top: VIDEO_CONFIG.height * 0.2,
    left: VIDEO_CONFIG.width * 0.1,
    width: VIDEO_CONFIG.width * 0.8,
    backgroundColor: theme.colors.background,
    fontFamily: theme.fonts.primary,
    fontSize: 48,
    color: theme.colors.text,
  }}>
    Book Title
  </div>
);

// Bad: CSS classes, relative positioning, hardcoded values
<div className="book-cover" style={{ fontSize: '48px' }}>
  Book Title
</div>
