# Video-related files for NCMR songs

This repo houses the code-like files for NCMR music videos. Binary assets live elsewhere.

## Structure

### `master` branch — shared template

This branch holds the common scaffolding:

- **Remotion project** — entry point, root component, and a placeholder composition
- **`ffmpeg.sh`** — helper for baking ASS subtitles or bypassing with static image + audio
- **`src/lrc2srt.ts`** — legacy LRC → SRT subtitle converter
- **Build config** — TypeScript, ESLint, Prettier, Remotion studio

### Song branches

For each song, create a branch `<song-name>/master` (and optionally feature branches
like `<song-name>/synced-lyrics-remotion`):

```
git checkout -b <song-name>/master
```

Copy the shared template into the song branch, then add song-specific files:

```
mkdir -p <song-name>
# Place your song-specific compositions, assets manifests, etc.
```

The `master` branch remains protected and mostly immutable. Song branches are independent.

## Guideline

### Git-ignored (not tracked here)

- Binary input assets (audio, images, fonts, material video clips)
- Video output (`out/`, rendered files)

For untracked input assets, a **bill of materials** listing everything and explaining
what each file is will be mandatory. Keep it as `BOM.md` alongside your song assets.

### Branching

- `master` — minimal template, protected
- `<song>/master` — song-specific work
- `<song>/<feature>` — parallel features for a song

This repo's branching rules supersede any generic git operation conventions.
