What it does

Tell Claude Code or Codex "make a promo for my product". The agent captures your real pages, picks shots from a library of tuned motion recipes, storyboards the film, animates it with Remotion, cuts it to the beat, adds sound design, checks every frame and hands you a finished MP4 you can keep editing.

It is not a video generator. Every frame is drawn by code from your own screenshots and copy, so the result is sharp, on-brand and fully editable.

Important

🎬 2026-10 · Shot library refresh

All 216 demos were polished and reviewed. The best versions now make up 124 cards / 150 shots, with fresh Gallery previews and video-shotcraft branding.

• 2026-09 · Motion Workbench. Keep editing the delivered film in a CapCut-style browser editor.

• 2026-08 · video-talkcraft, the narration-video sibling: script + voiceover in, every motion beat locked to the voice (78 narration previews).

• 2026-08 · JianYing (CapCut CN) export. The final film becomes an editable JianYing draft: per-shot clips, native caption tracks, separate SFX/BGM tracks. Verified on JianYing Pro 11.2 for macOS (guide).
