Promo Pipeline (Stock Footage + Remotion)

The promo pipeline creates marketing videos using free stock footage with contrast-aware text:

Search Pixabay → Download → Analyze Contrast → Generate TTS → Render with Remotion
                                    ↓
                          4x3 luminance grid per second
                                    ↓
                    AdaptiveText adjusts backing plate per frame
                    Dark bg → no backing | Bright bg → dark plate
