Have Claude Animate Your Videos in 36 Famous Art Styles, From Cave Paintings to Van Gogh
A free, open-source Claude skill past 6,000 stars that turns your script into a film drawn in code, in the style of Van Gogh, Monet, Bauhaus, 8-bit or a whiteboard explainer, and won't hand you a slideshow
Most videos look the same: stock clips, flat slides, the same templates. This free, open-source Claude skill, past 6,000 GitHub stars, gives Claude Code 36 art styles, from cave paintings and Egyptian murals to Van Gogh, Monet, Bauhaus, pop art and 8-bit games. You hand it your script or a topic, and Claude plans the shots, picks the styles and draws every frame in code, so the paint actually moves: Van Gogh's sky turns and Monet's water ripples.
Here's what it does, how to set it up with Claude, and what to know before you start.
What it does for you
- 36 style recipes: cave art, Egypt, mosaic, ukiyo-e, Monet, Van Gogh, Seurat, cubism, Bauhaus, pop art, vaporwave, 8-bit and more.
- 9 explainer looks for narrated videos: Kurzgesagt-style flat shapes, Vox-style collage, whiteboard, 3Blue1Brown-style morphs, kinetic type, keynote, finance charts.
- Script in, film out: it builds a shot list from your narration, chooses a style per shot and renders a frame-accurate visual track.
- Designs one frame first, then animates it, so you can approve the look before the full render.
- Quality gate: it measures its own film and blocks delivery if it looks like a slideshow.
- Music too: it can write a soundtrack in code timed to the action.
