Editing is where the week goes
- Five days on one 30-second video.
- Captions you fix by hand, word by word.
- Posting every day starts to feel like a second job.
- AI video credits gone before the third video.
Give your agent the right skill for each step, and most of that work goes to the agent.
Three recipes you can copy
The faceless explainer
No camera, no microphone. You bring the topic; your agent writes the script and builds the visuals, the voiceover and the music.
The talking-head Reel
One take on your phone. The skills clean the sound, cut the dead air, caption every word and add titles.
The no-voice promo
Music sets the cuts and the text does the selling. Good for a product reveal or a launch teaser.
Each recipe comes with the requests to paste, step by step.

Questions
Do I have to be on camera?
No. Recipe A uses no camera or microphone, and Recipe C has no voice at all.
Does anything cost extra?
Some skills use paid services. Voice, music and dubbing need an ElevenLabs account, and Remotion needs a company license once your team passes three people. Each card says so.
Can I use the music in my Reels?
That depends on your ElevenLabs plan and its terms. The music card points this out.
How is it different from The Trickbook?
The Trickbook covers pages, copy, ads, payments and launch. The Video Lab is only about video. Four skills appear in both.
What exactly do I get?
A 16-page PDF in English. You get access by email right after payment.
Can I get a refund?
Yes. If a guide isn't what you expected, email us within 7 days of your purchase and we'll refund you in full. Details in our refund policy.
Is Trickbook part of HeyGen, ElevenLabs or any company in the book?
No. Trickbook is an independent guide. Skill names, repositories and trademarks belong to their owners.
