to announce that we're working with company 60 this monday, i asked opus 5.5 to create a motion…

I made a  brand film for AY Automate without opening a video editor.

One prompt in Claude Code, then notes like a director.

Here's what actually happened:

Below is the exact prompt I'd start with. Copy it, swap in your company, and let it cook.

-------

You are directing a 90-120s brand film for [COMPANY], rendered from code. No video editor.

Setup (install only what's missing, and pin versions):
- video-use ( for cuts, audio mix, and word-level timing
- HyperFrames (npx hyperframes@<pinned version>) for every animated scene
- A TTS voice (ElevenLabs, MiniMax or similar), a music model (Lyria or ElevenLabs Music), and Deepgram or Scribe for transcripts

Inputs I'm giving you:
- Reference film to match in structure and pacing: [URL]. Download it, analyze the shot list, pacing, and sound design before writing anything.
- Visual style to match by name: [e.g. 3Blue1Brown: black background, thin white lines, serif type, blue/yellow/green accents, shapes that transform, one idea on screen at a time]
- Brand: [logo file, colors, fonts]
- What we do, in my words: [braindump]
- Proof I can show: [clients, numbers I approve, quotes]

Process (do not skip steps):
1. Research the claim the film opens on and fact-check it against real data. Cite sources on screen.
2. Write the script. Show it to me. Wait for approval.
3. Propose 3 storyboard directions. I pick one.
4. Build each scene as its own HyperFrames composition, in parallel sub-agents. Deliver 3 still frames per scene. No full render until I approve the stills.
5. Generate the voice with word timestamps and sync every animation beat to the spoken word.
6. Assemble with video-use rules: cut on word boundaries, 30ms audio fades, loudness at -14 LUFS.
7. Self-check before showing me: transcribe the final mix and confirm every line is audible, extract a frame every 7s and review it, and fix what's broken.
8. Save the result to my Downloads and open it.

Hard rules: no fake screenshots, no faces unless I provide them, no revenue numbers unless I approve them, and no claim on screen without a source.
