Files here are deliberately public and deploy with the site. Original media remains in Ghost's private assets archive.
personal-stack.mp4 is the web copy of assets/personal-manifesto.mp4, copied
unchanged into that archive from the Desktop source. It retains the original
1080×1080 dimensions, ten-second duration and audio. From the Ghost root:
ffmpeg -i assets/personal-manifesto.mp4 -c:v libx264 -preset slow -crf 23 -pix_fmt yuv420p -c:a aac -b:a 128k -movflags +faststart <3/products/personal-site/public/media/personal-stack.mp4
