Make animated marketing videos with Opus and Codex
Opus plans scenes, records, animates and edits; it calls Codex for generated images. Storyboard before building.
Prompt for your agent
Goal: Produce an animated product marketing video with agents. Setup: agents used in source: Claude, Codex; tools/MCPs stated: Paper, Figma. Steps: 1. Start with the idea and let Opus question you: goal, audience, call to action, where it’s published, length and format. 2. Give brand context and references; connect Paper or Figma so it can use your logos, fonts and screenshots. 3. Ask for a storyboard first: what each scene shows, on-screen text, which parts need recordings or generated images, motion and timing, audio. Fix it before building. 4. Generate missing assets: Opus calls GPT-6 through Codex for images, or make them separately and hand them over with placement notes. Rules: ask me before anything irreversible (sending, posting, paying, deleting); don’t invent data, results or tools I haven’t given you; tell me what you couldn’t verify.
