Claude Motion or Motion Skills?
They do different jobs. Motion Skills are full-film skills you install in your coding agent, one for each film type. Pick by the film.
Claude Motion is enough when
- ·You want a short animated explainer from one prompt
- ·You work in a Claude chat and attach your text, data or images
- ·You export the MP4 and you're done
Motion Skills fit better when
- ✓The film comes from your repo, site, data files or footage, read where they are
- ✓You want a whole film: directions to pick from, music, and narration and captions where it needs them
- ✓You work in Codex, Cursor or Gemini CLI, not only Claude
- ✓You want a project to keep: render it again, change it later, make a series
How a film gets made
Start with Motion Director: a 10–20 second film from your own material, at no cost. A full-film skill then makes the whole film from the same project.
- 01
Install Motion Director (free)
Paste its install prompt into Claude Code, Codex or Cursor. Your agent downloads it and checks your setup.
- 02
Hand it your material
A project, notes, a spreadsheet, a script or a link. Motion Director and every full-film skill propose three directions, each as a real frame, and you pick one; say "just make it" and the skill picks the strongest and tells you which.
- 03
It writes the film and its score
A rhythm sheet first, then the film as code and music composed for it, checked frame by frame.
- 04
Ask for changes, then render
Look at the film and say what to change in plain words; your agent edits that part, and you get the MP4.
Pick a scene
Eight scenes in two groups, each with its film types. Every film type has its own full-film skill.

See plans →Questions
What does my agent actually make?
A short film written as code: one HTML file animated over time, with a score the agent composes, rendered to MP4 in your own Chrome by the free Motion Skills engine. You keep the MP4 and the source, so any word, number or timing can change later.
How is this different from Claude Motion?
Claude Motion runs in claude.ai on Team and Enterprise. Here your own coding agent does the work on any plan with Claude Code, Codex or Cursor: it reads your files and project, composes the music and renders on your computer. No credits.
Which plans include Claude Motion?
Claude Team and Enterprise, in beta. Enterprise admins need to turn it on. It isn't on Free, Pro or Max. Details and sources are in our Claude Motion guide.
Can I change one part without starting over?
Yes. The film is code your agent wrote, so you ask in plain words ("slow the second scene", "use our blue") and it changes that part and renders again.
Is the music licensed?
The agent writes the score for each film and plays it with synthesized instruments by default. The optional real-instrument sample pack includes CC BY 3.0 recordings: credit them as its NOTICE.txt says. Music you hand it follows its own license.
Which languages can a film be in?
Any language your agent writes: the on-screen text, the narration and the captions in your viewers' language, with numbers and dates written their way. Free voices: English, Portuguese, Spanish and French on any computer; Chinese, Japanese, Korean and German with the voices built into macOS. For a more natural voice, use your own recording or your ElevenLabs or HeyGen voice. Our example films are in English.
What's free?
Motion Director is free and needs only a Google sign-in: a 10–20 second film of any type, with music. Every Claude Motion prompt is free too. Full-film skills are bought one at a time or all unlocked with a plan. No credits, ever.
Does it work with Codex and Cursor?
Yes. Skills follow the open Agent Skills format, so they work in Codex, Claude Code, Cursor, Gemini CLI and other agents that read skills.
Is this the official Claude Motion site?
No. This is an independent skill library and guide, not affiliated with, endorsed or sponsored by Anthropic. Claude and Claude Motion are trademarks of Anthropic, PBC.
