Define the generation workflow job
Treat “transition maker” as a search job to investigate, not as proof that a SEELE feature exists. First write a shot or asset contract, test one controlled variation, and plan the human finishing work. Write the intended audience, source owner, desired change, protected details, reviewer, and delivery condition before selecting any interface or model. That brief keeps the evaluation specific and makes an unsupported assumption visible early. For this decision, preserve the delivery checklist, and ask the brand reviewer to record failure conditions before the source comparison.

Prepare inputs for motion effects
For this topic, assemble the authorized shot, desired motion cue, protected scene elements, timing, and compositing requirements. Record where each source came from, who may use it, and what must remain unchanged. Use a small representative asset for the first pass, keep the original untouched, and define a fallback route so experimentation cannot silently become the production master. For this decision, preserve the handoff draft, and ask the source custodian to record human approval before the release review.
- Confirm ownership, consent, and allowed reuse While evidence is current, preserve the control log, and ask the identity reviewer to record temporal order before the dated decision.
- Preserve an untouched source and version history While evidence is current, preserve the input snapshot, and ask the policy reviewer to record revision intent before the dated decision.
- Name the reviewer and acceptance condition While evidence is current, preserve the handoff draft, and ask the factual editor to record input provenance before the dated decision.

Test observable controls for transition maker
A bounded evaluation should inspect motion direction, intensity, camera relationship, masks, edge behavior, temporal coherence, and reversibility. Change one meaningful variable at a time and record the date, workspace, account context, input, setting, result, and failure. Topic selection can prioritize the question, but it does not establish availability, quality, speed, licensing, or a supported SEELE workflow. While evidence is current, preserve the brief version, and ask the claims reviewer to record format readiness before the reversible handoff.

Review evidence, safety, and policy boundaries
Treat effect names as evaluation topics, not proof of a one-click SEELE feature or guaranteed artifact-free result. Use only authorized media, separate observed behavior from marketing language, and check current first-party documentation for any product-specific claim. For third-party products, competitors, plans, models, and platform rules, attach a verification date and primary source; an absent statement is an evidence gap rather than proof of a limitation. At this stage, preserve the evidence table, and ask the delivery owner to record temporal order before the bounded test.

Approve a reversible production handoff
Before advancing “transition maker”, inspect transitions and edges across frames, compare against the original shot, and retain a clean fallback plate. Document remaining manual work, unresolved evidence, destination requirements, and the person accepting the result. The handoff should preserve sources and test notes, allow correction, and avoid promises about output quality, turnaround, business performance, publishing, or access that the evidence does not support. Before delivery, preserve the continuity note, and ask the claims reviewer to record source fidelity before the controlled revision.
