What you get
- One 16:9 WebP chalkboard explainer with a single reading path, exact short labels and a visible takeaway
- A fixed chalk look: matte charcoal board, warm white line art, two to four accent chalks and a six percent safe margin
- Six reading paths to choose from, with ready prompt recipes for a learning loop, a decision path, an annotated cutaway and copy-critical boards
- A full-size and thumbnail checklist, and a route that leaves blank label areas so exact wording is typeset afterwards in SVG
Good fit
- Course slides and classroom handouts where one framework or process has to stick
- Article headers, workshop recaps and social posts built from a short brief
- Designers who want a repeatable chalk series without borrowing someone else's poster
Not for
- Long reports, dense tables or dashboards packed with small figures
- Photo scenes, glossy 3D or tidy corporate vector charts
- Near copies of a branded poster, a layout you have no license for, or a protected character
About this Skill
Course creators, teachers and content teams get one 16:9 board that reads at a glance: a title of eight words or fewer, three to five groups and 35 to 55 words in all, set along a single reading path such as a loop, a timeline or one big annotated object. Under the soft dust and faint eraser marks, the message stays crisp. The agent writes the copy map and picks icon metaphors first; after your yes, one paid FAL request draws the board, and every word is checked at full size and as a thumbnail.
How it works
- Send the brief or source facts, every exact word, number and unit, and the single takeaway that matters.
- Choose a reading path yourself or let the idea decide; four equal boxes is never the default.
- The agent drafts the copy map, settles the chalk colors and what each one means, and picks every pictogram.
- Once you approve, one paid FAL task is sent and recorded, so running the command again resumes it.
- Read the board at full size and as a thumbnail, then request one fix per round.
Checked before delivery
- One title, one reading path, three to five groups and a visible takeaway, about 35 to 55 words in all
- Every word, number and unit matches the approved copy map, or the copy is set afterwards in SVG
- Charcoal board, warm white line art and two to four accent chalks, with everything inside a six percent margin
- Title, direction and takeaway still read at about 320x180

FAQ
Is there a running cost per board?
Yes. The bundled runtime sends requests to FAL with your FAL_KEY, and every generation or edit uses paid credits. The request is saved before the script waits, a rerun resumes it, and nothing is resubmitted after a failure without your approval.
How do exact numbers and labels stay correct?
Wording is kept brief, and each label, figure and unit is compared against the copy map. When wording is long or must be exact, the board is generated with empty label areas and your approved text is set afterwards in SVG or a layout tool.
Can I attach my own image?
Yes, as long as you say whether it is a style reference or the approved file to be edited. A reference lends only broad visual traits; its title, slogan, layout, icons and recognizable design stay out.
Will a series of boards match?
Yes. The first approved board becomes the anchor: later boards repeat its chalk colors, board tone, title size, line weight and texture wording, while each new topic gets a fresh layout and its own pictograms.
