Our note
A playful, joyful video built from hand-drawn sketches, filled with watercolor-style flowers, a butterfly, a bee and a smiling sun; rendered in JavaScript over about 80 minutes using the creator's wife's art as reference.
The creator’s post
Opus 5.5 is mind blowing @claudeai ! Joining the trend of javascript videos a bit late but wanted to try it myself. I just gave it some sketches from my wife's art and some sample videos and it produced the following video in 1h 20 min. One prompt : "You are a professional videographer. Create me a high-definition, creative, playful, and joyful video that you enjoy watching, that has sounds matching the frames using JavaScript. Use as much as possible of the input images—hand-drawn—to make it more creative and more authentic from input-pictures. You can also be inspired by, but not copy, the videos created by you in video-examples/, especially this: video-examples/twitter_claude.mp4. You're really creative, so produce the best of what you can." Github repo in the thread.
