How it was made
Katagami art styles
Every picture is drawn in Flint with Grok Imagine, its prompt pasted unchanged into every request; four accent shots use Mastic and Shadowbox the same way.
A shot for every two beats
Each shot is planned with its story beat, its joke and an empty part of the frame for words.
Stills first, then motion
Every still was checked on sheets before a clip was made from it.
Gated takes
Each clip is scanned for extra faces and raised arms, and the edit uses only the clean stretch.
Cut on the grid
Every cut is on the beat, with each hit landing two frames after its cut.
Words set in code
Lines are set as they are sung, placed by what is under them, with windows in Katagami design languages.
Ingredients
Every look, style and program in it is a Katagami entry. Open one to use it yourself.

Make your own
Copy this recipe for your agent and ask for "a music video like the cinematic cut of Yesterday's Taste, for this song: ...". It writes your bar and never-list with you, shows a board in the look before it spends on clips, cuts on the beat, and sets the words in code with windows in Katagami design languages.
