Claude × Remotion

Make branded videos by describing them. No editing app.

Every short video you make in an editor is a one-off: you drag the title in, pick the font again, retime the cuts — and next week you do it all over. Claude × Remotion shows you a different way. Remotion turns a video into a small piece of code; Claude Code writes that code for you from plain words. You describe the reel, watch it in a preview, say what feels off, and render an MP4. The tenth video takes minutes, not an evening.

Everything in this guide comes from a real project: the iLens brand intro, a series of teaching reels, product-reel templates for clients and “Made with AI” clips around AI-generated footage. Every screenshot is from that project.

Inside the guide

• Set up in ten minutes — three commands, then your colours, fonts and logo built into the project once
• The prompt that builds a reel — canvas, brand, script: a copy-and-adapt prompt plus rules for hooks that land in two seconds
• Preview, edit, render — the Remotion Studio screen by screen, editing in plain words, exporting to MP4
• One reel, many videos — turn one reel into a template and render a whole series with one command
• Templates clients can edit — form fields in the Studio, one design for four brands, and how to sell it as a service
• AI footage, framed by code — brand and label AI-generated clips, plus typed-prompt scenes
• Publish and repurpose — covers from stills, a TikTok cut, a weekly routine and comment-keyword DMs
• Appendix — prompt library, command cheat sheet, the problems we hit and how to fix them, and a pre-post checklist

This is for you if

• You post short videos every week and are tired of rebuilding them by hand
• You want every video to look like your brand without checking fonts and colours each time
• You’re a freelancer or studio who wants to deliver video templates to clients

Not for you if you edit long vlogs or camera footage — use a normal editor for those.

You’ll need: a computer, Node.js (free), Remotion (free for individuals and small teams — larger companies need a licence) and a Claude plan that includes Claude Code. No coding experience required.
