  1. 0:00Look at these two videos. This one has
  2. 0:02over 4.6 million views
  3. 0:04>> [music]
  4. 0:04>> and it's from a channel that started
  5. 0:06just a few weeks ago.
  6. 0:08And this other one, I created it
  7. 0:10entirely using Claude code without
  8. 0:12spending a single dollar on any other AI
  9. 0:14tool. That's right. [music] No Higgs
  10. 0:17field plugins, no expensive AI video
  11. 0:19generators, none of that. Claude code
  12. 0:22literally created every single frame of
  13. 0:24this video using [music] 3D coding.
  14. 0:27And here's the crazy part. I've seen
  15. 0:29creators selling this exact [music]
  16. 0:30method for hundreds of dollars.
  17. 0:33But I'm not going to do that. Instead,
  18. 0:35I'm going to show you the entire process
  19. 0:37step-by-step completely for free. Once
  20. 0:40you learn this method, you can apply it
  21. 0:42to pretty much any niche you want and
  22. 0:44start creating videos in this exact
  23. 0:46style. [music]
  24. 0:48And there are already several channels
  25. 0:49doing this successfully. For example,
  26. 0:52this shorts channel called Rick's Clips,
  27. 0:55another one called Ifverse, and even
  28. 0:57this brand new channel called Capital
  29. 0:59Case. They're all using a similar visual
  30. 1:02style. And the reason it works so well
  31. 1:05is that these 3D animations are
  32. 1:07incredibly [music]
  33. 1:08engaging, visually satisfying, and
  34. 1:10genuinely interesting to watch. And the
  35. 1:13best [music] part? You can create this
  36. 1:15type of content yourself using Claude
  37. 1:17code without relying on expensive AI
  38. 1:20video generators. Okay, now to get
  39. 1:22started, we need to install two tools.
  40. 1:253.js and Remotion.
  41. 1:293.js [music]
  42. 1:30is what we're going to use to create the
  43. 1:313D animations and Remotion will help us
  44. 1:34put everything together including
  45. 1:36captions, audio, and the final [music]
  46. 1:39video.
  47. 1:40But don't worry, you don't have to
  48. 1:41install these manually. Claude code
  49. 1:43[music] can handle the entire setup for
  50. 1:45you. All you need to do is open Claude
  51. 1:48code and type something like this.
  52. 1:50I want to create 3D animated videos. For
  53. 1:53that, I need 3.js for 3D animations and
  54. 1:57Remotion for captions, audio, and video
  55. 1:59rendering.
  56. 2:01Please install and set up everything I
  57. 2:02need.
  58. 2:03And that's it. Claude Code will take
  59. 2:05care of the setup, and once everything
  60. 2:07is installed, we're ready to start
  61. 2:09creating our first video. Now, the next
  62. 2:11thing you need to do is grab the plugin
  63. 2:13I've provided in the description and
  64. 2:15install it in Claude Code.
  65. 2:17Here's what I actually did. I downloaded
  66. 2:18several videos in this animation style,
  67. 2:21took screenshots of different scenes,
  68. 2:23and used those references to develop a
  69. 2:25custom plugin that can create similar 3D
  70. 2:27animations frame by frame.
  71. 2:30So, basically, I've already done the
  72. 2:31most complicated part for you. You don't
  73. 2:33need to figure out the coding, animation
  74. 2:35techniques, or how to recreate this
  75. 2:37visual style from scratch.
  76. 2:39The plugin is designed to handle all of
  77. 2:41that for you.
  78. 2:42All you need to do is install it, and
  79. 2:44you're ready to start creating your own
  80. 2:453D animated videos. Once you download
  81. 2:48the plugin, simply upload the zip file
  82. 2:50to Claude and ask [music] it to install
  83. 2:52the plugin and use it for the next
  84. 2:53steps.
  85. 2:55That's literally all you need to do.
  86. 2:57Claude will handle the setup,
  87. 2:58>> [music]
  88. 2:58>> and once everything is ready, we can
  89. 3:01move on to creating our first 3D
  90. 3:03animated video. As I mentioned earlier,
  91. 3:05you can use this method for pretty much
  92. 3:07any niche you want, whether it's
  93. 3:09history, psychology, wealth, or even
  94. 3:12what if videos.
  95. 3:13But for this tutorial, I'm going to go
  96. 3:15with the money niche. And if you want to
  97. 3:18try this niche yourself, I've included a
  98. 3:20master prompt in the description that
  99. 3:21you can use to generate video ideas and
  100. 3:24scripts.
  101. 3:25So, here's exactly what I'm going to do.
  102. 3:27Okay. First, I'm going to copy the
  103. 3:29master prompt, paste it into Claude, and
  104. 3:32run [music] it.
  105. 3:33Now, it's going to generate 10 unique
  106. 3:35video ideas for our money niche. All I
  107. 3:37need to do is pick the one I like and
  108. 3:39enter it into the chat.
  109. 3:41Next, Claude is going to ask how long I
  110. 3:43want the video to be.
  111. 3:45I think 6 minutes would be a good
  112. 3:46starting point. And as you can see here,
  113. 3:49it's already generating the script for
  114. 3:50our video.
  115. 3:52Now, once the script is ready, there's
  116. 3:53one more thing we need before activating
  117. 3:55[music] our plugin, and that's the
  118. 3:57voiceover.
  119. 3:58For this, I'm going to split the script
  120. 4:00[music] into three different parts and
  121. 4:02generate the voiceovers using 11 Labs.
  122. 4:05By the way, if you want to try 11 Labs,
  123. 4:07I've included a link in the description,
  124. 4:09and you might be able to get some
  125. 4:10discounts through that link.
  126. 4:12All right, now that the voiceover for
  127. 4:13our first part is ready, I'm just going
  128. 4:15to upload it to Claude and ask it to
  129. 4:17generate the 3D animated video using the
  130. 4:19custom skill we installed earlier.
  131. 4:22And now, let's see what Claude code can
  132. 4:24actually create. The first part of the
  133. 4:26video has been generated, and now, let's
  134. 4:29take a look at it. For years, one number
  135. 4:31supposedly explained how much money you
  136. 4:33needed to be [music] happy.
  137. 4:35$75,000
  138. 4:37a year.
  139. 4:38Below that, more money helped. Above it,
  140. 4:41happiness apparently stopped improving.
  141. 4:44Congratulations, your emotions had a
  142. 4:46salary cap.
  143. 4:48Then another researcher checked. His
  144. 4:50results disagreed. So, he teamed up with
  145. 4:52one of the scientists behind the
  146. 4:54original finding.
  147. 4:55And together, they discovered that the
  148. 4:57question wasn't just how much money you
  149. 4:59made. It was which kind of happiness
  150. 5:02they were measuring.
  151. 5:03And whose.
  152. 5:05In 2010, Daniel Kahneman and Angus
  153. 5:07Deaton [music] published research
  154. 5:09examining more than 450,000
  155. 5:11survey responses from Americans.
  156. 5:14But they separated two things we usually
  157. 5:16squeeze into one word.
  158. 5:18Happiness.
  159. 5:19First, [music] how you feel while living
  160. 5:22your life.
  161. 5:23Did you experience enjoyment yesterday?
  162. 5:25Worry?
  163. 5:26>> [music]
  164. 5:26>> Sadness?
  165. 5:27Second, how you evaluate your life when
  166. 5:30you step back and think about it.
  167. 5:32Those aren't identical.
  168. 5:34You can be proud of your career while
  169. 5:35spending Tuesday arguing with a printer.
  170. 5:38That looks great.
  171. 5:40Now, if you're not happy with the
  172. 5:41character style or the colors you're
  173. 5:43getting, don't worry. You can always ask
  174. 5:45Claude to suggest some different
  175. 5:47character designs.
  176. 5:48>> [music]
  177. 5:48>> For example, I'm going to type, "Can you
  178. 5:50suggest some unique character designs
  179. 5:53with more details?
  180. 5:54I also need visual examples so I can see
  181. 5:57what each style looks like."
  182. 5:59And just like that, Claude will give us
  183. 6:00different character design ideas to
  184. 6:02choose from. So, instead of sticking
  185. 6:04with the default style, we can
  186. 6:06experiment with different looks until we
  187. 6:08find something that perfectly fits our
  188. 6:10channel. As you can see here, we've got
  189. 6:12some pretty cool stick figure styles
  190. 6:15and even some more detailed humanoid
  191. 6:17character designs.
  192. 6:19And that's one of the best things about
  193. 6:20this master prompt.
  194. 6:22You're not stuck with just one animation
  195. 6:24style. You can easily customize the
  196. 6:26characters, colors, and overall visual
  197. 6:28style to match your niche and make your
  198. 6:31videos look unique.
  199. 6:33So, yeah, [music] I'm going to go ahead
  200. 6:34and add the remaining voiceover parts.
  201. 6:36Let Claude generate the rest of the
  202. 6:38animations, and once everything is done,
  203. 6:41let's see how the final video turns out.
  204. 6:43Okay, guys, the video is finally
  205. 6:45complete. And here's the crazy part.
  206. 6:48This whole process didn't take days or
  207. 6:50even several hours. It only took around
  208. 6:5345 minutes to generate the entire video.
  209. 6:56And we're not just talking about some
  210. 6:57basic slideshow with a few moving
  211. 6:59images. We've got proper animations,
  212. 7:02smooth transitions, motion graphics, and
  213. 7:05even sound effects, all generated
  214. 7:07automatically.
  215. 7:09Think about how much time this would
  216. 7:10normally take if you were doing
  217. 7:12everything manually. You have to create
  218. 7:14the characters, animate every single
  219. 7:16scene, add transitions, find suitable
  220. 7:19sound effects, and then put everything
  221. 7:21together in a video editor.
  222. 7:23That could easily take hours, especially
  223. 7:25if you're a beginner.
  224. 7:27But with this Claude plugin and the
  225. 7:28master prompt, we managed to simplify
  226. 7:31pretty much the entire process. And the
  227. 7:33best part is, you don't need to know
  228. 7:35anything about coding or professional
  229. 7:37animation to get started.
  230. 7:39Now, you already know how to install the
  231. 7:40plugin, use the master prompt, generate
  232. 7:43your script, add your voiceovers, and
  233. 7:45customize the animation styles. But
  234. 7:48here's something even more important.
  235. 7:50Just because you can create these videos
  236. 7:52doesn't mean you should start making
  237. 7:53random content. You need to choose the
  238. 7:56right niche.
  239. 7:57And that's where things get interesting
  240. 7:59because this animation style isn't
  241. 8:01limited to just one type of content. You
  242. 8:03can use it for psychology videos where
  243. 8:05you explain human behavior, emotions,
  244. 8:08and why people think the way they do.
  245. 8:11Or, you can create self-improvement
  246. 8:12videos about confidence, discipline, and
  247. 8:15building better habits.
  248. 8:17You can even take this into the finance
  249. 8:18niche and explain complicated money
  250. 8:20concepts using simple animated
  251. 8:22characters.
  252. 8:24Topics like why [music] people stay
  253. 8:25broke, how inflation affects everyday
  254. 8:27life, or what would happen if everyone
  255. 8:30earned [music] the same salary.
  256. 8:32And if you prefer educational content,
  257. 8:34you can explore history, science, or
  258. 8:36even what-if scenarios. [music]
  259. 8:38Imagine explaining historical events or
  260. 8:40crazy scientific situations using these
  261. 8:43simple animations and motion graphics.
  262. 8:46There are so many possibilities here,
  263. 8:48and you don't have to copy what everyone
  264. 8:49else is already doing.
  265. 8:51My suggestion is to pick [music] one
  266. 8:53broad niche, find a unique sub-niche
  267. 8:55within it, and build your channel around
  268. 8:58that specific topic.
  269. 8:59That way, [music] you can develop a
  270. 9:01recognizable style and give people a
  271. 9:03reason to keep coming back for more
  272. 9:05videos.
  273. 9:06And remember, the AI is just a tool.
  274. 9:09Your ideas, storytelling, and the way
  275. 9:12you present your content are what will
  276. 9:13make your channel stand [music] out. And
  277. 9:15with that, we've reached the end of
  278. 9:17today's video.
  279. 9:19Now you know how to create these amazing
  280. 9:213D animated videos using Claude code
  281. 9:24without spending hundreds of dollars on
  282. 9:27expensive AI video generators or
  283. 9:29plugins. [music]
  284. 9:30And before you go, I'm actually working
  285. 9:32on something even more exciting right
  286. 9:34now.
  287. 9:35It's a completely new animation style
  288. 9:37[music] that I haven't seen anyone else
  289. 9:39using on YouTube yet. And trust me, I
  290. 9:42can't wait to show you guys how it
  291. 9:43works.
  292. 9:44So, if you don't want to miss that
  293. 9:46tutorial,

  299. 9:54the comments what niche you're planning
  300. 9:56to try with this method.
  301. 9:58Thanks for watching, and I'll see you
  302. 9:59guys in the next one.
