https://reddit.com/link/1tjm0z1/video/21m99vl72i2h1/player Wanted a launch video for my startup. Instead of After Effects or hiring an editor, I let Claude Code write the entire thing in Remotion. I described each scene, Claude wrote the React components, I tweaked timing and cut anything slow. The whole video is JSX. Every animation is just interpolate(frame, [start, end], [from, to]) . Claude already knows React so it handled scene composition, transitions, and audio timing without much hand-holding. The feedback loop was fast. Change a value, re-render, see what happens. 5 things that made the output not look like a dev made it: Crossfade every cut. No hard cuts between scenes. Overlap and blur-fade. Instantly stops feeling like a slideshow. One easing curve everywhere. cubic-bezier(0.22, 1, 0.36, 1) on every animation. Consistency in motion is 80% of “looks designed.” Film grain + vignette. SVG noise at 2% opacity, soft dark vignette on top. Cheapest cinematic trick in existence. Layered audio. Background music low, targeted SFX only on chapter cuts and the CTA. Overdoing SFX is the #1 amateur tell. Cut ruthlessly. If a scene doesn’t earn its place in 3 seconds, kill it. Stack: Remotion, React, TypeScript, Claude Code, Google Fonts, freesound.org for SFX. The video features a real output from InkMotion , my product, inside the launch video. Probably should’ve just used InkMotion to make the whole thing. Next time. Happy to answer anything about the Claude Code workflow in the comments. submitted by /u/Top_Commission_8567
