02Method
- Sourced
- Every claim is checked against its cited source. Each video’s page lists the claims, values, sources and simplifications.
- Visual
- The argument is drawn one idea at a time, like a figure in a paper.
- Loops
- The last frame dissolves into the first. The narration ends at least 0.6 s before the seam.
- Code
- Every frame is rendered from TypeScript and SVG, with a custom framework on Remotion.
- Format
- 1080 × 1920 px, 30 fps, 30 to 60 s.
03Contact
- Errors
- Name the video and the claim number, for example 001, claim 5.
