Just made this video in Claude Code, from a PDF to this in minutes

So I've just set up Remotion (free video creation skill for Claude Code) and decided to test it with a PDF we made for our WhatsApp community - a sleep poll with results across 3 questions.

I gave Claude the PDF, told it what I wanted, and it built a 5-scene animated video with transitions, animated bar charts, branded colours, the lot. Rendered it as an MP4 right from the terminal.

The whole thing took minutes. No video editor, no Canva, no uploading to some third party tool. It all happened locally on my machine.

Remotion itself has been around since 2021, it's a proper established framework, not something experimental. What's new is the Claude Code skills integration that means you don't need to know React or write any code yourself. You just describe what you want and Claude Code does it all.

Already scheduled it for LinkedIn on Monday. Now I'm thinking about what else I can repurpose this way, podcast clips, course promos, campaign content.

Video attached so you can see the output. First attempt, no tweaking. Pretty impressed.
