ReleaseReel is a pack of Claude Code skills that make the video for whatever you put out: an app launch filmed frame by frame, a TikTok cut, a hand-drawn mascot short, or faceless shorts on any topic for your channel. Music included.
Two videos Claude made with these skills: the five skills and ReleaseReel Studio, real videos cut on the beat, the Studio filmed frame by frame, music generated by code. No editing by hand.
LAUNCH FILM · 16:9 · 1:11Made with the Launch Film skill, for Peerlist, X, LinkedIn and your site.TIKTOK · 9:16 · 1:12Made with the Vertical Cut skill: text kept clear of the TikTok, Reels and Shorts buttons.
WORLD 1
Four stages. One video.
Every ReleaseReel skill plays the same four levels.
1-1
CLEAR!STAGE 1-1
Get the facts
Claude reads your repo (README, package.json, git history) or checks a topic on reliable sources. Every number and fact on screen has its source written down. Nothing invented.
Playwright films your production build on a simulated clock, one screenshot per frame, so every animation lands on time. No product? Claude draws the scenes and an original mascot in SVG.

Cut on the beat
Scenes snap to a 150 BPM beat, or to every word of the voice-over. Whooshes land just before each cut, and the music is generated by code. No stock track to license.

ReleaseReel Studio comes with the pack. Run npm run app in your workspace: a page opens on your computer and every video plays there, live, while Claude edits it. Check the scenes, render with one button, and copy the change you want straight to Claude. No AI inside, nothing leaves your machine.

HALL OF FAME
95 videos. Same pipeline.

GAME MANUAL
Questions
What exactly is a Claude Code skill?
A folder with a SKILL.md (the instructions), reference notes and scripts. Claude Code loads it when your request matches, here: “make a launch video for this repo” or “make a faceless short about octopuses”.
Is it only for apps?
No. Launch Film, Vertical Cut and Frame Capture film a product you built (web app, mobile app, extension…). Faceless Reel needs no product at all: short videos on any topic for a faceless TikTok, YouTube Shorts or Reels channel — explainers, top lists, myth or fact, quizzes, timelines — with your channel’s own look, an original host character and a voice-over.
Does it film my real app?
Yes. It runs your production build and captures it frame by frame with Playwright on a simulated clock, so animations, hovers and scrolls look exactly like the real thing. Capture patches stay in a copy: your repo is never modified.
What kinds of products can it film?
The capture skill ships nine recipes: Next.js sites, static and CSS-animated sites, WebGL scenes, full web apps with shortcuts and drag and drop, mobile web, Expo apps, apps that need real data, Chrome extensions and sites that load remote images.
Where does the music come from?
It is generated by code at render time and timed to your scenes, with whooshes and impacts on the cuts. There is no stock track, so nothing to license.
Which languages?
On-screen text follows whatever language you ask for. The voice-over of doodle and faceless videos uses free Piper voices on your machine by default (English and French voices are listed in the setup), with no cloud text-to-speech. For more natural voices, accents or two characters talking, the skills can use ElevenLabs with your own account and API key (billed by ElevenLabs; its free plan does not allow commercial use).
Can I buy just one skill?
No. ReleaseReel is one pack: the five skills share the same studio (Remotion template, capture engine, music synth, voice-over tools) and hand work to each other, so they are sold together, for one payment of $29.
Is there a refund or support?
No. ReleaseReel is a digital download delivered right after payment, so all sales are final, and it is sold as is, without support. Everything you need to know is on this page: check the requirements before buying. The README in the zip covers setup and troubleshooting.
Is Claude included?
No. You need Claude Code with your own Anthropic plan. ReleaseReel is an independent product, not affiliated with Anthropic.
Does it work in the Claude desktop app?
Yes, in its Code tab. Works in Claude Code: terminal, VS Code, or the Code tab of the Claude desktop app (Local session). Copy the six folders into ~/.claude/skills/, then start a Local session in your product’s folder. The Chat and Cowork tabs are not supported for now: they don’t load the skills of ~/.claude/skills/, and ReleaseReel Studio runs on your own computer.
Do I need a Remotion license?
Remotion is free for individuals and companies of up to 3 people. Bigger teams need a Remotion company license.
