Add a reaction without a new generate
Cut a reaction from B-roll you already have. Do not spend a generate on a face that only has to blink.

Record TTS, generate product I2V, lay it under the voice, then caption. A talking head is optional.
Faceless UGC is B-roll under a voice. A generated face is still a talking head, not a faceless cut.
A-roll is the spine of the cut — usually a person speaking — not B-roll, and not OpenAI Astra's rollout.
Talking-head needs auto captions of speech. Silent B-roll needs an overlay you wrote. Mixing the two jobs is the miss.
B-roll should illustrate a concrete line. Generative wallpaper between sentences is how faceless videos feel empty.
search_broll finds reaction clips you can overlay. Generating a presenter is a different model row.
get_available_broll and search_broll surface stock UGC; compose_video_with_overlay inserts it. Covering a miss with B-roll, or inserting before picture lock, spends a composite on a narration you will recut.
get_available_broll (emotion filter) and list_hooks surface reaction shots. Timing them onto a miss, or before picture lock, punctuates a beat that will move.
A short burst of fast cuts every few minutes resets attention in talking-head long-form. Place the bursts on your drop-off points, then measure the recovery.
Mixed edits break on grain, grade, focal length and motion blur. The order to fix them in, and the one thing you cannot repair in post.
Editors need coverage, not a hero shot. A nine-angle shot list and a generation order that keeps one subject's identity stable across every frame.
Turn raw event footage into a polished 60-90 second AI recap video the same day — prompt templates, scene picks, music, captions, and platform cuts.
