How to make an Explainer Video in under $1 with Claude Design

Claude Design can make great animations, but getting to a final video is a bit hard. The audio is missing. Even if you use a TTS model, it does not align.

Here is the process I used to get the video above

  1. Get Claude to write a good script
  2. Feed the script to a Text to Speech (TTS) model to get the audio
  3. Feed the audio to a Speech to Text (STT) model to get key timestampes
  4. Use the script and the STT output to Claude Design to get a video that's aligned with your audio
  5. Use Claude Video export to put it all together into an MP4 with audio

The complete breakdown with all prompts is here: https://claudevideoexport.com/blog/how-to-make-professional-explainer-video-under-1-dollar

Hi guys,
I have setup a swarm of agents to explore different directions for logo design on a given brief. see gogologo.in

If you are interested in getting your logo (re)designed for FREE, comment below with...

  • Your brand name
  • Problem
  • Solution
  • Ideal Customer Profile
  • Geo (one country or Global)
  • Anything else...

I am opening 3 slots for this weekend. I will decide which 3 based on my whims and fancies :D

Note: The logos will be AI generated, but human curated and tweaked. You will get 3 recommended options (from me) and up to 10 options generated by AI. You are free to use any.

When Claude design came out, I was excited to make some animated videos with it. Videos came out well, but there was no way of exporting them to MP4.

I figured I will have to write some code to render the video myself, so I did. I found myself using it a lot, so I made a free website where anyone can render Claude design videos. See claudevideoexport.com

Its been a week now and I get 7-100 videos being rendered every day.

To self sustain this, I need to figure out some ways of monetizing it. Any ideas.

The obvious ones I am staring at are..

  • Freemium - first 3 videos free, pay fourth onwards
  • Freemium by video length - 60s free, pay for more

I just made this product promo video completely with Claude code. Explaining the process here with the prompts. I also have a generic prompt at the bottom that you might want to use.

Step 1: Describe your video in scenes

Don’t think in “design.” Think in scenes — like a director giving a shot list to a crew.

This is the first prompt I used:

Make a slick product intro video for my product https://claudevideoexport.com
- Scene 1: Text animation — "How to get MP4 from Claude Design Animation"
- Scene 2: Show a small browser window with "Claude Design" open. Pan to 
  the top right with "Present" link and "Share" button. Show a mouse clicking 
  "Present" → dropdown appears → mouse clicks "New Tab". New tab opens and 
  the URL is copied. URL reads: 
  "https://2d0b2821-9f01-40b1-b0a6-2f4db6601a33.claudeusercontent.com/v1/design/projects/2d0b2..."
- Scene 3: Switch to claudevideoexport.com showing a form. URL is pasted 
  into the form and "Export" is clicked.
- Scene 4: Fast-moving progress bar going from 0% to 100%. Text reads 
  "Rendering Video (0/2000 frames)" — counter increments to 2000/2000.
- Scene 5: A file icon labeled "video.mp4" pops up and downloads.
- Scene 6: video.mp4 gets uploaded to YouTube, then Instagram, then Facebook.
- Scene 7: Text animation — "Make Claude Design Animations → Get MP4 using 
  ClaudeVideoExport.com"

Use the look and feel of https://claudevideoexport.com. UI components should 
look like they belong to that site.

What makes this prompt work: It’s sequential. Each scene has a clear action. The UI details — the URL string, the button labels, the progress text — give Claude enough to build something that looks real rather than generic. And anchoring to a real website URL lets Claude pull design references.

Step 2: Refine with a follow-up pass

First output was close but not quite right. The platform upload scenes looked static, and the overall pace was slow. One more prompt:

- The file upload to YouTube, Instagram & Facebook should look like 
  the file being dragged and dropped onto those sites in a browser. 
  Show a basic drag-and-drop UI element for each site matching their 
  brand colors. Get the correct icons for each platform from the web.
- Make overall scene transitions faster and slicker. Keep the whole 
  thing under 40 seconds.

That’s it. Two prompts total. The second one fixed exactly what needed fixing.

The lesson: Don’t try to get everything right in one massive prompt. Get a working draft, watch it, note what’s off, fix those specific things. Claude Design responds well to targeted correction.

The generic prompt you can steal for any product

Make a 30–45 second product intro video for [YOUR PRODUCT URL].
Scenes:
- Scene 1: Text animation — "[One-line problem statement]"
- Scene 2: Show the old/painful way of doing this. 
  Use a browser window. Keep it simple and recognizable.
- Scene 3: Introduce [PRODUCT NAME]. Show the core action 
  (the thing the user actually does — paste URL, upload file, 
  click button, etc.)
- Scene 4: Show the product working. Progress indicator, 
  loading state, or live output — whatever fits.
- Scene 5: Show the result. File icon, dashboard, confirmation 
  screen — make it feel satisfying.
- Scene 6: Show where the result goes. Social platforms, email, 
  Slack, client — wherever the output lands.
- Scene 7: Text animation — "[Core value proposition in one line]"

Use the look and feel of [YOUR PRODUCT URL] for all UI components.
Colors, fonts, and style should match the site.
Keep transitions smooth and fast-paced throughout.

Then follow up with one refinement prompt targeting anything that’s off.

To export the animation into MP4, you can use my tool - claudevideoexport.com
Audio was added to the video outside of any of these tools.
