Summary

Trigger when: (1) User wants to create an educational/explainer video, (2) User has a vague concept they want visualized, (3) User mentions "3b1b style" or "explain like 3Blue1Brown", (4) User wants to plan a Manim video or animation sequence, (5) User asks to "compose" or "plan"

1	## Workflow
2
3	### Phase 1: Understand the Concept
4
5	1. Research the topic deeply before asking questions
6	- Use web search to understand the core concepts
7	- Identify the key insights that make this topic interesting
8	- Find the "aha moment" - what makes this click for learners
9	- Note common misconceptions to address
10
11	2. Identify the narrative hook
12	- What question does this video answer?
13	- Why should the viewer care?
14	- What's the surprising or counterintuitive element?
15
16	### Phase 2: Clarify with User
17
18	Ask targeted questions (not all at once - adapt based on responses):
19
20	Audience & Scope
21	- What math/science background should I assume? (e.g., "knows calculus" or "high school algebra")
22	- Target video length? (short: 5-10min, medium: 15-20min, long: 30min+)
23	- Should this be self-contained or part of a series?
24
25	Focus & Depth
26	- Any specific aspects to emphasize or skip?
27	- Proof-heavy or intuition-focused?
28	- Real-world applications to include?
29
30	Style Preferences
31	- Color scheme preferences?
32	- Narration style? (casual, formal, playful)
33	- Any specific visual metaphors you have in mind?
34
35	### Phase 3: Create scenes.md
36
37	Output a comprehensive `scenes.md` file with this structure:
38
39	```markdown
40	# [Video Title]
41
42	## Overview
43	- Topic: [Core concept]
44	- Hook: [Opening question/mystery]
45	- Target Audience: [Prerequisites]
46	- Estimated Length: [X minutes]
47	- Key Insight: [The "aha moment"]
48
49	## Narrative Arc
50	[2-3 sentences describing the journey from confusion to understanding]
51

53
54	## Scene 1: [Scene Name]
55	Duration: ~X seconds
56	Purpose: [What this scene accomplishes]
57
58	### Visual Elements
59	- [List of mobjects needed]
60	- [Animations to use]
61	- [Camera movements]
62
63	### Content
64	[Detailed description of what happens, what's shown, what's explained]
65
66	### Narration Notes
67	[Key points to convey, tone, pacing notes]
68
69	### Technical Notes
70	- [Specific Manim classes/methods to use]
71	- [Any tricky implementations to note]

80	## Transitions & Flow
81	[Notes on how scenes connect, recurring visual motifs]
82
83	## Color Palette
84	- Primary: [color] - used for [purpose]
85	- Secondary: [color] - used for [purpose]
86	- Accent: [color] - used for [purpose]
87	- Background: [color]

89	## Mathematical Content
90	[List of equations, formulas, or mathematical objects that need to be rendered]
91
92	## Implementation Order
93	[Suggested order for implementing scenes, noting dependencies]
94	```
95
96	## 3b1b Style Principles
97
98	Apply these principles when composing scenes:
99
100	### Visual Storytelling
101	- Show, don't just tell - Every concept needs a visual representation
102	- Progressive revelation - Build complexity gradually, don't show everything at once
103	- Visual continuity - Transform objects rather than replacing them when possible
104
105	### Pacing & Rhythm
106	- Pause for insight - Give viewers time to absorb key moments
107	- Vary the pace - Mix quick sequences with slower explanations
108	- End scenes with resolution - Each scene should feel complete
109
110	### Mathematical Beauty
111	- Emphasize elegance - Highlight when math is surprisingly simple or beautiful
112	- Connect representations - Show the same concept multiple ways (algebraic, geometric, intuitive)
113	- Embrace abstraction gradually - Start concrete, then generalize
114
115	### Engagement Techniques
116	- Pose questions - Make viewers curious before revealing answers
117	- Acknowledge difficulty - "This might seem confusing at first..."
118	- Celebrate insight - Make the "aha moment" feel earned
119
