Who it is forA founder or marketer at a small software company who needs a launch video for a product page or social post and has no video editor or budget for one.
The problemMotion design videos usually need After Effects, a paid tool or a freelancer, and changes after the first cut are slow.
The outcomeA rendered MP4 with music and sound effects cut to the beat, where each scene is code that can be changed with a follow-up request.
What you need first
- Claude Code installed, with a ~/.claude/skills folder you can write to
- Python with pip
- Chromium installed through Playwright
- ffmpeg available from the command line
- A brand folder with sourced facts about your product (the skill asks for these)
Steps
- Install the skill:
mkdir -p ~/.claude/skills && cp -r skill/motion-design ~/.claude/skills/ - Install the Python dependencies:
pip install playwright imageio-ffmpeg numpy pillow && python -m playwright install chromium - In Claude Code, type
/motion-designor ask for a video, then give it your brand facts and a short brief so it writes the director's brief before any code. - Approve the four stills it produces, then render the full film. (inferred) Run
python render.py fullin the project folder if it follows the example layout. - Add the music and sound effects with
python audio.py, then mux them withffmpeg -i out/video.mp4 -i out/audio.wav -map 0:v -map 1:a -c:v libx264 -crf 16 -c:a aac -shortest out/final.mp4
Prompt for your agent
Using the claude-motion-design skill in Claude Code, make a short motion design launch video for <brand name> from the facts in <brand folder>. Expected output: four approved stills and a final MP4 with audio at -14 LUFS. Verify that the brand name and product facts on screen match the sourced facts.md file.
Caveat. The skill needs Python, Chromium and ffmpeg set up on your machine, so it is not a copy-and-paste tool for non-developers.
