Dojo — Self Intro

Dojo creates its own intro video.
A capability reel built inside Dojo — talk, listen, Lane Assist, try-on, architecture,
product shots, promo, lip-sync, multilingual, diagrams, kids tutor, and the finale.

Film order

Locked standalones live under each section’s video/final/. The master is assembled once from those files (no intermediate cumulative re-encodes).

Quick start

1. Prerequisites

• Node.js 20+ and pnpm (corepack enable && corepack prepare pnpm@latest --activate)
• Git LFS (brew install git-lfs · git lfs install)
• FFmpeg on PATH (for the master assembler scripts)
• Optional: Dojo for the media production workflow that built these clips

2. Install

git lfs install
git clone git@github.com:neekware/dojo-self-intro.git
cd dojo-self-intro
git lfs pull
pnpm install

3. Studio / Remotion preview

pnpm dev      # Remotion Studio
pnpm render  # out/dojo-power-showcase.mp4  (composition render)

4. Rebuild the ship master (single pass + loudnorm)

# A/V drift check across locked standalones
python3 scripts/check-av-sync.py

# One encode: join every LOCKED section + title cards, loudnorm −14 LUFS
python3 scripts/build-master-reel.py

# Output
#   public/sections/15.00.00-final/video/final/DOJO-REEL-MASTER.mp4

5. Layout

Path	What
src/	Remotion compositions
public/sections/	Canonical media by capability (MAJOR.MINOR.PATCH-slug)
public/sections/*/video/final/	Locked standalones only
public/sections/*/after/final/	Locked stills + title cards
scripts/	Master assembler, A/V checks, section builders
docs/	Script / notes
out/	Local Remotion renders (gitignored)

Each section folder:

MAJOR.MINOR.PATCH-slug/
  before/   after/   video/   audio/   text/
  **/final/          ← deliverables only

How the master is built

1. Every chapter is approved as a standalone LOCKED-*.mp4.
2. Intermediate “cumulative” tips are not kept — they re-encoded the timeline dozens of times and destroyed early quality.
3. scripts/build-master-reel.py loads every standalone + title card into one filtergraph:
   • 300 ms incoming dissolve between sections
   • video/audio drift padding when streams disagree
   • loudnorm I=-14:TP=-1.0:LRA=11 in the same pass
   • libx264 crf 16, AAC 256k, +faststart
4. Result: one high-quality master, not a 25th generation copy.

python3 scripts/build-master-reel.py

Brand lockup

• Icon: torii line mark only (no griffin on products)
• Wordmark: Dojo + cursive X → Dojo X
• Splash / open stills under 00.00.00-brand/after/final/

---

Git LFS

Large binaries are tracked with Git LFS (see .gitattributes):

• *.mp4 *.mp3 *.mov *.wav *.webm *.mkv *.m4a …
• Design sources: *.psd *.tif

After clone, always:

git lfs pull

If a video opens as a few-hundred-byte text pointer, LFS did not fetch — run the command above.

Blog

A long-form write-up of how Dojo produced this reel is planned separately. This repo is the media + build source of truth.
