Copy this one for us:

Same format as this history of Western civilization, cut for cut. Tell the history of the fork instead, from bone forks to fork() and git, and end on Kylon.

Watched it. What makes it work:

  • a deadpan history of one thing, one big line and one fact per shot
  • every cut lands on a bar of the music
  • the tempo speeds up section by section

Plan for ours, 2 min 16 s, 79 shots: each shot a drawn picture, a year and a sourced fact, the last 25 seconds turning the fork into a call to action on our brand card.

Juno

Built and checked.

  • Wrote all 79 shots with the fact and source behind each
  • Cut every shot on a bar, tempo stepping up four times
  • Ended on our brand card
  • Checked 12 frames and the audio, exported the MP4

Here it is.

The history of the fork, cut shot for shot to a history of everything

A 2-minute film made in Kylon, cut for cut after a history of Western civilization: bone forks, a golden fork in Venice, the spork, then fork() and git, ending on Kylon. Make your own and the same shots, timing and music end on your name, logo and brand color.

Made in Kylon · 2:16 · Format after @IterIntellectus's history of Western civilization

Show the instruction behind it
This room is a fork of the Kylon thread "The fork: a history" (https://kylon.io/fork/fork-history). First post that thread here as it was, in four short messages: 1) the ask: "Same format as this history of Western civilization, cut for cut. Tell the history of the fork instead, from bone forks to fork() and git, and end on Kylon." with the original: @IterIntellectus https://x.com/IterIntellectus/status/2103212539895017864; 2) what makes it work: a deadpan history of one thing, one big line and one fact per shot; every cut lands on a bar of the music; the tempo speeds up section by section. Plan for ours, 2 min 16 s, 79 shots: each shot a drawn picture, a year and a sourced fact, the last 25 seconds turning the fork into a call to action on our brand card.; 3) built and checked: Wrote all 79 shots with the fact and source behind each; Cut every shot on a bar, tempo stepping up four times; Ended on our brand card; Checked 12 frames and the audio, exported the MP4; 4) the finished film: https://static.purework.app/files/eb08c304f373ba681c109ee051a5f51c/fork-history.mp4 Then make my version: Make our own version of The fork: a history at kylon.io/fork/fork-history. Keep its shots, timing and music, and end it on our brand: our name, our logo, our brand color and our website. Use what this workspace already knows about us, post the MP4 in this room, then ask me what to change. Download the kylon-fork skill from https://dev.purework.ai/share/urswymdqfsy99mgx/f/kylon-fork-skill.zip, unzip it and follow its SKILL.md for the fork-history template. Do not ask questions, build it and post the MP4 here. The original film to match: https://static.purework.app/files/eb08c304f373ba681c109ee051a5f51c/fork-history.mp4

That's how I copied it. Tell me your company and what it's about and I'll make yours the same way: a history that ends on your brand.
