Claude video generator:
you write, Claude directs.

Describe what you want explained. Claude Opus 5.5 plans the film, records the narration, draws the scenes and scores them, then hands you the MP4.

Takes about 30–50 minutes. You can close the page.

Three ways to make a video with Claude

People mean different things by a Claude video generator. This site is the first kind.

Claude draws it with code

Claude writes a program that draws every frame: diagrams, charts, type and illustration. Best for explainers. This is what we run.

Claude calls a video model

Through a connector, Claude prompts a separate video model for filmed or photo-real shots. Better for live action, and billed by that model.

Claude writes, you edit

Claude writes the script or shot list and you build the video in an editor yourself. Most control, most work.

What Claude does in every film

Five jobs, done in order, without you prompting each one.

1

Cuts the script to length

A 30-second film gets a 30-second script, not a long one read fast.

2

Checks the narration

Each recorded line is compared with the script before the cut.

3

Draws and checks each scene

Scenes are drawn one by one and checked frame by frame before the cut.

4

Times the subtitles

Subtitles follow the voice line by line and break between words.

5

Scores the film

An original score and sound effects, levelled so the film is ready to post.

Questions

Can Claude make a video on its own?
Claude's models output text and code, not video frames. A video comes from the code Claude writes plus a renderer, or from a video model Claude calls.
Is this an Anthropic product?
No. This is an independent site. Our director runs on Claude Opus 5.5 through the API, and Claude and Opus are trademarks of Anthropic.
Which Claude model directs the films?
Claude Opus 5.5, for the script, the scene plan and the drawing code of every film.
Can I add my own material?
Yes. Attach files and list the points the film must include; they go into the brief the director works from.
Which formats and lengths can I make?
Landscape 16:9 from 15 to 60 seconds, or vertical 9:16 for TikTok, Reels and Shorts at 15 or 30 seconds. Narration in English or Chinese.
Can it make realistic footage of people?
No. Every frame is drawn by code: illustrations, diagrams, charts, type and motion graphics. For filmed or photo-real scenes you need a video model, not this site.
