Just leaving this here in case someone is interested:

https://github.com/barebaric/sceneweaver

Example Usage:

Starting

First, create a new specification file to define your video's structure.

sceneweaver create my_video.yaml    # creates a new template you can edit
sceneweaver generate my_video.yaml

Example specification

Here is a basic example of a my_video.yaml file:

settings:
  width: 1920
  height: 1080
  fps: 30
  output_file: "output.mp4"

scenes:
  - id: intro_card
    type: title_card
    duration: 3  # optional if audio is given
    audio: my/narration.wav
    title: Hello, SceneWeaver!
    transition:
      type: cross-fade
      duration: 1

  - id: main_image
    type: image
    duration: 10
    image: "~/path/to/your/image.png"
    stretch: false # Preserves aspect ratio
    width: 80 # As 80% of the screen width
    annotations:
      - type: text
        location: bottom
        content: This is a caption for the image.
    cache:
      max-size: "2GB"
    transition:
      type: cross-fade
      duration: 2

  - id: outro
    type: video
    fps: 25
    file: something.mp4
    effects:
      - type: fade-out
        duration: 1

But way more is supported, including recording audio, applying effects, etc.
