Government services tutorial ​

You will make how residents of a fictional city renew a document online, with the government pack and its civic theme. Allow about ten minutes before recording.

1. Create the episode ​

bash
reelforge new renew-online --pack government --template renew-document --lang en

Use --lang ar for an Arabic version. The pack also has appointment-checklist and program-deadlines. The pack catalog lists every template and its slots.

2. Fill in your details ​

Open the episode with reelforge edit renew-online and replace the default names, numbers and keyword with your own, or start from the dashboard (+ New episode → Start from template), whose form asks for each field. Keep within the length limits shown for each slot.

Audience and tone. All residents, including older people and non-native speakers. Be neutral, plain and step by step.

  • One step per line, shown with steps or checklist.
  • Show the official channel as text, not as a real emblem or seal.
  • Keep captions on and avoid fast effects.

3. Check the content ​

  • Politically neutral: no parties, candidates or opinions.
  • Rules, fees and deadlines exactly as provided, with "check the official website for your case".
  • Accessibility: high contrast, no flash or glitch effects.

4. Validate, record and render ​

bash
reelforge validate renew-online
reelforge align renew-online          # after you save voice.wav in the episode folder
reelforge render renew-online

A finished example is in packs/government/examples/westbrook-renewal-en; render it with --silent to compare.
