## How to make a riso film from a one-line prompt with Riso Windowseat

Repo: [sevenevesai/riso-windowseat](https://github.com/sevenevesai/riso-windowseat) | Difficulty: Intermediate | Time: 30 minutes | Basis: From the README

Describe a scene to Claude Code and get a single-file procedural riso film you can open and play in a browser.

**Who it is for:** A creator or designer who wants a short animated piece in the riso style and has no animation toolchain set up.

**The problem:** Making an animated film from scratch usually needs asset pipelines, libraries and export tooling.

**The outcome:** A new film folder with an index.html that plays in a browser, with its design recorded in a FILM.md.

### Steps

1. `git clone https://github.com/sevenevesai/riso-windowseat`
2. `cd riso-windowseat/tools`
3. `npm install && npm run setup && npm test`
4. Open Claude Code in the repo root and ask for a film, for example "Make a 40 second riso film of a lighthouse keeper's night."
5. Open the new index.html in a browser and press play to check the result.

### Prompt to paste into your agent

```text
In the riso-windowseat repo, make a riso film of <scene description> using the riso-film skill in .claude/skills/. Expect a single index.html plus a FILM.md in films/. Verify the film plays in a browser and that its design notes are recorded in FILM.md.
```

### Caveat

The films use no libraries, fonts, images or network calls, but any new audio you add must carry its own license, as the repo's AUDIO-SOURCES.md files show.

## How to export a riso poster as a 2160 x 2160 PNG with Riso Windowseat

Repo: [sevenevesai/riso-windowseat](https://github.com/sevenevesai/riso-windowseat) | Difficulty: Intermediate | Time: 30 minutes | Basis: From the README

Ask Claude Code for a riso still image and export it as a native 2160 by 2160 PNG for print or posting.

**Who it is for:** A designer or artist who needs a print-ready riso-style poster or plate image without building one by hand.

**The problem:** Producing a clean, high resolution riso-style image needs a generative pipeline and a reliable export step.

**The outcome:** A native 2160 by 2160 PNG of the poster, with its design notes in a PRINT.md.

### Steps

1. `git clone https://github.com/sevenevesai/riso-windowseat`
2. `cd riso-windowseat/tools`
3. `npm install && npm run setup && npm test`
4. Open Claude Code in the repo root and ask for a poster, for example "Make a riso poster of a heron on a pier at dusk."
5. Ask Claude Code to export the print with tools/still.mjs, as the README describes, and open the PNG to check it.

### Prompt to paste into your agent

```text
In the riso-windowseat repo, create a riso poster of <subject> with the riso-still skill and export it as a 2160 x 2160 PNG using tools/still.mjs. Expect a PNG and a PRINT.md in prints/. Verify the PNG is 2160 by 2160 pixels.
```

### Caveat

The repo's prints are driven like films and exported with tools/still.mjs, so expect the export step to depend on that tool rather than a plain image save.

## How to fix a loud moment or score an existing film with Riso Windowseat

Repo: [sevenevesai/riso-windowseat](https://github.com/sevenevesai/riso-windowseat) | Difficulty: Intermediate | Time: 45 minutes | Basis: From the README

Ask Claude Code to add a score or fix a timed loud passage in a riso film, checked with loudness sheets.

**Who it is for:** A filmmaker whose riso film sounds wrong at a specific moment or needs a score added.

**The problem:** Finding and correcting a loud or badly timed sound in a procedural film is slow without measurements.

**The outcome:** An updated film where the named audio moment is adjusted or a score is added, with loudness checked.

### Steps

1. `git clone https://github.com/sevenevesai/riso-windowseat`
2. `cd riso-windowseat/tools`
3. `npm install && npm run setup && npm test`
4. Open Claude Code in the repo root and name the film and the problem, for example "The rain at 66 s is too loud." or "Score this film."
5. Review the loudness sheets Claude Code renders with tools/ and listen to the changed passage in a browser.

### Prompt to paste into your agent

```text
In the riso-windowseat repo, use the riso-score skill to fix <timestamp and issue> in films/<film-name>/ or to add a score to it. Expect an updated index.html and loudness sheets from tools/. Verify the named moment is quieter or scored and that AUDIO-SOURCES.md lists every audio source used.
```

### Caveat

The README's sound kit and audio sources are CC0 or CC BY licensed, so any added recordings need their own attribution recorded in AUDIO-SOURCES.md.

## How to extend Window Seat with a new scene with Riso Windowseat

Repo: [sevenevesai/riso-windowseat](https://github.com/sevenevesai/riso-windowseat) | Difficulty: Advanced | Time: 90 minutes | Basis: From the README

Have Claude Code add a scene to Window Seat and verify it with frame strips and the repo's gates.

**Who it is for:** A creator who wants to continue an existing film with a new passage and keep its style and timing consistent.

**The problem:** Adding a scene to a finished film risks breaking its timing, determinism and visual style.

**The outcome:** A revised Window Seat film with the new scene, checked for determinism and inspected as frame strips.

### Steps

1. `git clone https://github.com/sevenevesai/riso-windowseat`
2. `cd riso-windowseat/tools`
3. `npm install && npm run setup && npm test`
4. Read films/window-seat/FILM.md so you know the existing timeline and its design decisions.
5. Open Claude Code in the repo root and ask for the change, for example "Extend Window Seat with a snowy mountain pass after the lake."
6. Check the new passage in the frame strips and contact sheets rendered by tools/ and open the index.html to play it.

### Prompt to paste into your agent

```text
In the riso-windowseat repo, extend films/window-seat/ with <new scene description> using the riso-film skill and its gates. Expect an updated index.html and a revised FILM.md. Verify with the determinism hook and the frame strips that the existing timeline from 0 to 78 s still holds.
```

### Caveat

The repo states that the piano in Window Seat is licensed CC BY 3.0, so any change to its audio must keep that attribution intact.
