Machine Skill: a truck air brake built, cut open and broken

A 28-second film recorded by the skill itself from one typed line: a Class 8 truck air drum brake assembles on a dyno stand, the brake pedal raises the computed torque, the drum is cut open with red section faces, taken apart, and finally the slack adjuster seizes so the brake runs out of stroke.

A 25-second film the author made with teardown from one reference picture: a white-and-orange robot spider walks, crouches and jumps while the side panels chart its gait, leg servos and jump height, then the head and abdomen open and the whole body blows apart into its 460 coded parts.

An Edo-period samurai story in the stickman history style

A 30-second sample of the Historical Cartoon style from Stickman Video Director: a round-headed samurai walks past a castle and down a lantern-lit street, then sits at a desk counting coins in a dead-pan office scene, the kind of history short the skill makes from a one-line brief.
