+# Video-related files for NCMR songs
+
+This repo houses the video-related, code-like files for NCMR music videos. 
+
+## Guideline
+
+### gitignored (not tracked here)
+- binary input assets (audio, image, fonts, material video clips if any)
+- video output
+
+For untracked input assets, a bill of materials listing everything and explaining what each is will be mandatory.  
+
+### branching rule
+
+This repo has specialised local branching rules and will supersede any generic git operation conventions.
+
+- `master` serves as the minimal template and remain protected and mostly immutable
+  - (Remotion)[https://www.remotion.dev/] project scaffolding
+  - `ffmpeg` helper script for baking in `ass` styled subtitles or bypassing the Remotion route (static image + audio)
+  - legacy lrc->srt conversion script
+
+- for each song, a song root named `<song-name>/master` should be created, for the very least
+  - usually, working on a song root incrementally is the norm and totally acceptable
+  - branches for parallel features (e.g. `<song-name>/synced-lyrics-remotion`, `<song-name>/overlay-ass`) may be created.
