Claude Animated Shorts

Claude animation skills is a set of six Claude Code skills for generating short animated reels without filmed footage. The skills produce 3D cartoon explainers, stick-figure explainers, minimal line art, 3D map routes, exploded views, and animated line graphs. Claude writes a specification or explainer script, then the skills render animations on the user's computer. The quick skills use Python build scripts, HTML templates, GSAP or three.js, HyperFrames, and headless Chrome via Playwright; they output 1080x1920 MP4 video and a contact sheet with Instagram's safe area marked. The stick-figure and 3D cartoon skills also generate or process local voiceovers and synchronize captions using Kokoro and NVIDIA Parakeet models through sherpa-onnx. The project runs on macOS or Linux and requires ffmpeg, Node.js 18 or later, and Python 3.9 or later. It can be installed as a local repository or as a Claude Code plugin. It is made by Artem Novitckii and licensed under the MIT license.

Animate is a Claude Code skill and plugin for creating short animated videos procedurally in code. It builds a self-contained canvas animation and renders it to MP4 with a headless browser and ffmpeg, using an intake flow followed by story, visual-style, and storyboard approval checks before rendering. The skill includes seven built-in styles—cut paper, crosshatch, risograph, sketchbook, math, pixel, and isometric—and can create an additional style from reference media by measuring its palette, line weight, texture, motion, and cut rhythm. It supports beat-mapped or code-composed music, narrated voice-over timing, real product screenshots, shape-morph transitions, and 9:16, 1:1, 4:5, and 16:9 outputs from one piece. The repository provides command-line tools for building, previewing, storyboarding, exporting, reviewing, comparing references, and checking rendered frames; it is distributed under the MIT license.

An open-source AI agent skill for Claude Code, Codex, and similar coding agents that produces cinematic product, marketing, launch, and demo videos with Remotion. It provides shot recipe cards, motion previews, a reusable video template, and workflows for storyboarding, real page capture, animation, 2.5D camera moves, sound design, beat-synced cuts, and visual checks. The repository includes native Remotion components driven by normalized progress values, a gallery for browsing motion previews, and an optional JianYing project export that separates shot plates, captions, sound effects, and background music into editable tracks. It can be installed through the skills CLI, by cloning the repository, or by linking it into a Claude Code or Codex skills directory.

A Claude Code skill for creating motion-design videos in code using HTML, Playwright, ffmpeg, Python, and Chromium. It computes each frame from a deterministic seek(t) function, renders frames with Playwright, blends subframes for motion blur, and encodes the result with ffmpeg. Its motion system includes closed-form springs, log-space camera keyframes, shared-element handoffs, masked word-by-word text, color floods, and ports of selected 21st.dev components. The workflow moves from inputs and a beat map through still-frame approval, full rendering, pop detection, audio generation, and final muxing. Audio processing finds musical drops by band energy, aligns the song to a key visual frame, places sound effects at measured peaks, and applies two-pass loudness normalization. The repository also includes a remake mode for frame-locked recreations with shot analysis, side-by-side verification, and royalty-free replacement audio. The code is MIT-licensed; downloaded third-party media remains under its respective license.

MotionSites Web Builder is a free Claude skill for creating cinematic landing pages. Claude studies related example designs, selects media from a shelf of hosted videos, 3D cut-outs, and images, writes a detailed build specification, generates the page, then uses screenshots and a QA script to check assets, mobile overflow, fonts, and video playback before applying fixes. The skill includes example prompts, technique recipes for effects such as seamless video loops, liquid glass, word-by-word blur headlines, mouse-scrubbed video, depth carousels, scroll stories, and Three.js models, plus design rules and a specification template. It can be installed in Claude.ai, Claude Desktop, or Claude Code, and can produce prompts for other website-building tools. Its instructions and code are licensed under MIT; the example prompts and media remain under MotionSites copyright.
