A film title in. A playlist on the schedule.

Original songs, a cover, a long-form video and a scheduled upload, from one row in a queue. It runs on a schedule, nobody approves a step, and a person hears from it only when something fails.

Run · tron legacy Done
A chain of eight steps run in order with no approval: preflight, write, cover brief, audio, order, cover, video, publish. A person stands beside the chain, joined to it only where a failed step or the final report reaches them. preflightwritecover briefaudioordercovervideopublish person

Set up once

  1. A sound profile, distilled from reference listening: the era, the palette, the tempo, and how the lyrics are shaped.
  2. A roster of invented artists, each with a voice, recurring subjects and three modes, so a playlist sounds like several bands rather than one.
  3. A look for each catalogue: a film stock, a colour grade and a title lettering, so every cover in it belongs with the others.

Each run

  1. After that, a playlist is a row in a queue: a film, a sound, a date.
  2. Before it spends anything, the run checks its upload token, its credits and its publish slot.
  3. It writes lyrics and sound notes, artist by artist, against the sound profile.
  4. It sets one scene for the cover, in the catalogue’s film stock.
  5. It renders the songs and checks every take as it arrives.
  6. A step can fail, as this one does here. The run stops with a typed reason, and that report is what reaches a person.
  7. Resumed, it picks up where it stopped. Nothing it finished is done twice.
  8. It sequences the songs in acts and stamps the chapters.
  9. It renders the cover from that one scene.
  10. It cuts one long-form video, with slow crossfades between the songs.
  11. It schedules the upload for the date in the queue and marks the row done.
  12. Then it reports to a person: completed. Nobody approved a step.

On the loopNobody approves a step. A person reads the report, and steps in only when it says so.
