whaleyxbt/claude-motion

What is it?

Key features

• 01Motion design rules with concrete easing curves, spring presets and timing values.
• 02A self-review loop that renders contact sheets for the agent to inspect frame by frame.
• 03A Python sound engine generating effects with no samples, mixed on the video timeline.
• 04Single timeline JSON shared by scenes, sound and review checks.
• 05Web simulation pipeline that captures frame-exact 60 fps video from HTML pages.

Use cases

• Creating a short announcement motion graphic from a text prompt with a coding agent.
• Building data-driven or simulation-style animations as standalone web pages and exporting them to video.
• Generating synchronized sound effects for a Remotion video without licensed audio.
• Reviewing and fixing animation timing across many scenes.

FAQ

What is claude-motion?

A motion design toolkit that lets coding agents like Claude Code build Remotion videos with timeline-driven scenes, a visual review loop and a Python sound engine. claude-motion is a toolkit that lets coding agents produce motion graphics and short videos. It layers design rules, a self-review process and a sound engine on top of Remotion, so an agent knows not only the API but also how to pace easing, holds and type, and how to check its own output.
