Create coded explainer animations with Claude, visual references and a voiceover before building scenes
A designer describes making short UX explainers with Claude-written animation code: collect visual references, develop the script and voiceover, build scenes, review and revise. The author also sells reusable style skills.
Evidence: The author reports this. We have not checked it beyond reading the source.
The business problem
A content business needs repeatable animated explainers with consistent visual direction.
What was tried
Pick a UX or technology topic. Collect references for colors, typography, layouts and motion. Have Claude develop the hook, script and voiceover first; the author connects ElevenLabs or Epidemic Sound through MCP. Give Claude the references and voiceover to write animation code, then review and request adjustments before posting. Package recurring style instructions into skills. The linked Rays page describes editable script.md and storyboard.md files, reusable scenes and local MP4 rendering; its free download requires an account.
What was reported (positive)
u/Danteboiz420 reports 10 videos, over 2.6 million combined Instagram/TikTok views, over 6,000 followers and a $1,300 sponsorship. These figures were not independently verified.
Limitations
The post promotes three paid styles and one free style. Visual direction and iteration remain human work. We read the public Rays description but did not obtain its account-gated files or execute its renderer. No guaranteed audience or sponsorship result follows from this method.
What you need
Claude Code, visual references and the author's paid audio service connection when following their voiceover setup. Style skills are optional.
