   + voiceover          2-3 seconds             + voiceover

Final output: MP4 video file

1. FAL_KEY in .env file (get from https://fal.ai/dashboard/keys)
2. FFmpeg installed and in PATH
3. Python packages: fal-client, requests, python-dotenv

Workflow

Step 1: Gather Information

Ask the user for:

1. Topic/subject of the presentation
2. Number of slides (default: 5)
3. Voice - George (default), Aria, Rachel, Sam, Charlie, Emily
4. Transition style - cinematic (default), zoom_blur, swipe, shatter, particles, morph, flip, wave
5. Reference images - which images from Reference Images folder to use for branding

Step 2: Generate Slide Content

For each slide, define:

• title: Heading text displayed on slide
• visual_description: Detailed description of what the slide should look like
• narration: Script for the voiceover (what will be spoken)

Example for 3 slides:

slides = [
    Slide(
        title="Welcome to Abonmarche",
        visual_description="Professional title slide with Abonmarche logo prominently displayed, clean modern design with brand blue colors",
        narration="Welcome to Abonmarche. Today we will explore our engineering services and commitment to excellence."
    ),
    Slide(
        title="Our Services",
        visual_description="Clean infographic showing engineering services: civil, survey, environmental. Icons and professional layout matching Abonmarche brand",
        narration="Abonmarche offers comprehensive engineering services including civil engineering, land surveying, and environmental consulting."
    ),
    Slide(
        title="Contact Us",
        visual_description="Contact information slide with Abonmarche logo, website, phone number. Professional closing slide design",
        narration="Thank you for learning about Abonmarche. Visit our website or call us to discuss your next project."
    ),
]

Step 3: Create Configuration

from scripts import PresentationConfig, Slide

config = PresentationConfig(
    slides=slides,
    voice="George",
    transition_style="cinematic",
    transition_duration=2.5,
    reference_images=[
        "Reference Images/Abonmarche Primary Logo Full Color Transparent BG.png"
    ],
    output_path="./output/presentation.mp4"
)

Step 4: Generate Video

from scripts import create_slideshow_video

result = create_slideshow_video(config)
print(f"Video saved: {result}")

Voice Options

Voice	Description
George	Professional male (default)
Aria	Professional female, warm
Rachel	Conversational female
Sam	Young male, energetic

See references/transition_styles.md for details.

Cost Estimate

Item	Cost
Slides	$0.15/image
Voiceovers	~$0.30/1000 chars
Transitions	$0.35/video

5-slide presentation: ~$2.65-3.00

from scripts import estimate_cost
print(estimate_cost(num_slides=5))

{
    "voice": "George",
    "transition_style": "cinematic",
    "reference_images": [
        "Reference Images/Abonmarche Primary Logo Full Color Transparent BG.png"
    ],
    "output_path": "./output/presentation.mp4",
    "slides": [
        {
            "title": "Welcome",
            "visual": "Title slide with logo",
            "narration": "Welcome to our presentation."
        }
    ]
}

Run with:

from scripts import run_from_json
result = run_from_json("presentation_config.json")
