Making videos with Claude stopped feeling like editing and started feeling like farming

Making videos with Claude stopped feeling like editing and started feeling like farming I kept asking Opus 5.5 for "a nice launch video" and getting a messy field every time, so I changed the approach: now I plant one thing at a time and let it grow on its own schedule > every scene gets its own row, so the intro, the click and the result never trample each other > one seed per row: one button, one action, one result, instead of three features crammed into twenty seconds > things grow in with a soft bounce instead of popping out of nowhere, because the motion is calculated, not guessed > when one sprout comes out wrong, I pull that single weed and nothing else in the field moves > before the harvest I check three stills, so I catch the cropped headline while it's still a seedling And the harvest is just the render. Claude drives the combine, I get an MP4 that looks exactly like what I planned Here's the whole planting guide, step by step ⤵️
