Ask Project Bright for a video. Claude builds it in code.

Made with Project Bright

Four productions.

A browser game advert, a software promo, a civic campaign and a product walkthrough — all built the same way, by asking for them.

Game promotion BangBop Cars A 36-second advert for a browser driving game — gameplay footage cut against motion graphics and a scored soundtrack. Software promotion SPLITFIRE A 30-second product advert, with the music composed to the cut so the drop lands on an exact frame. Civic communication YourGov "Your finger can be a hero" — a campaign film explaining how to see the way your MP actually votes. Product walkthrough Socials Studio A short walkthrough of a social-media automation tool — captured screens, motion graphics and narration carrying a whole workflow.

All four are on the solvX channel.

The category

Open-source agentic video production.

OpenMontage was first to publicly establish open-source agentic video production as a category, and its success showed just how much interest there is in the idea. Project Bright was being developed independently at almost the same time — its earliest predecessor dates from April 2026 — and the system has since been pushed through months of real production work.

Both projects solve broadly the same problem in broadly the same way: an AI coding agent operating a programmable production environment. Project Bright takes that core idea and keeps pushing it outward. Today it gives Claude a code-driven video production studio with accumulated production skills and tooling for footage, animation, graphics, typography, audio, timing, rendering and review.

The production itself remains editable React + Remotion code.

What is under the hood

A library of proven techniques, not a list of formats.

Months of real production have built up working methods for footage, animation, motion graphics, music, branding, explainers and social formats — the awkward parts, already solved and already tested. Fifteen Claude Code skills ship with the repo, so what was learned building the last video is loaded rather than rediscovered on the next one.

Tell Claude what you want and it uses, combines or rewrites whatever it needs to build it.

How it works

Clone it, prove it renders, then start describing what you want.

1. Clone it. One repository, no services to stand up, nothing to deploy.
2. Prove the install. npm run hello renders a real video and checks the file it produced — not the exit code.
3. Open Claude Code in the repository.
4. Tell Claude what you want to make. In plain language, the way you would brief a person.
5. Claude follows the Project Bright skills and authors the Remotion composition — the plan file, the timing, the assets, the checks.
6. Render, inspect and iterate. Watch it. Change a number. Render again.
7. You decide when it is done. Nothing publishes itself, and nothing is finished because a script said so.

# the first five commands
git clone https://github.com/tradewithmeai/project-bright.git
cd project-bright/apps/claude-remotion
npm install
npm run hello   # renders the install proof and verifies the artefact
npm run dev     # opens Remotion Studio

Claude Code is a separate product, is not included with this repository, and needs its own subscription. It is how you use Project Bright: the skills are the interface the whole system is built around, and without them you are writing the Remotion yourself. Codex would probably work in its place — that is untested, so treat it as unsupported rather than as an option.

Why code?

Because a video you can read is a video you can fix.
