Animated Shorts Maker
Makes an original vertical animated story short from code, with a moving camera, voice and an original sound mix.
Workflow inspired by mromidev/claude-animated-shorts (MIT).
What it makes
- A 45–70 second vertical animated MP4 and a poster frame
- SCRIPT.md with sources, STYLE_BIBLE.md and reference study reports
- ROUNDS.md and CHECKS.md documenting visual review and final file checks
- The source and GUIDE.md for rendering and changing the story, voice, colours, camera and music
How it works
- Buy and download
You get a zip with the agent's skill, a blank brief and a short guide.
- Install the skill
Unzip it into ~/.claude/skills for Claude Code, or into your project's .agents/skills for Codex.
- Fill in the brief and run it
Your own agent does the work on your machine and puts everything it makes in ./out.

- Reference shorts you have the right to study, or a look to choose
- For exampleLinks to two shorts whose pacing and look I like
- Voice, language and house rules
- For exampleMy own English voice recording, no captions, quiet music
