Pick a style.

One line in, eight seconds out. Each with its own story, its own twist and its own sound.

    The Last Light

    “Rainy Art Deco noir. A man walks into the lamp light. One window lights up.”

  • 02 · Papercraft8 s · with sound

    The Paper Boat

    “Cut paper at sunrise. A paper boat sails in, and a red bird lands on it.”

  • 03 · Explainer8 s · with sound

    A Day on Mars

    “A flat 2D explainer with captions: how much longer a day on Mars is.”

Made the way Reel Bot Factory makes them: a written brief, then Claude drawing every frame in Python, composing the sound in code and rendering with ffmpeg. No stock, nothing traced.

It does the running around.

Grok Bot runs the errands. Claude does the drawing. You say yes.

  1. 01

    It writes the brief.

    Style, characters, every shot with its time, a twist, an ending and the sound.

    brief · the-last-light.txt
    Style
    flat painted noir, Art Deco, one light per shot
    Shot 1
    0–5.4 s · rainy skyline, a man walks into the lamp
    Shot 2
    5.4–8 s · low angle up his tower, every window dark
    Twist
    one window lights. Someone waves.
    Sound
    rain, a low pad, footsteps, a warm chord on the light
  2. 02

    It gives it a voice.

    ElevenLabs reads the script, and every word gets its time, so captions land on the word.

  3. 03

    Claude draws every frame.

    It opens a chat in your Claude project, hands over the brief, and Claude draws, scores and renders it.

    “Follow the attached brief. Build the 540x960 preview only and show it to me.”
    Eight frames of The Last Light, one a second: the skyline, the man walking into the lamp light, the tower, the lit window.
    Its contact sheet · one frame a second, checked twice
  4. 04

    It checks the file.

    Downloads the MP4 and measures it before you ever see it.

    Then it asks you.

    With an honest list of weak spots. Nothing posts until you say so.

    The Last Light is ready.

    Weak spots: the walk is a slide with a bob, and the man is small in the wide shot.

Free. It arrives by email.

You'll need Grok Bot (with its own computer and browser) and a Claude plan with room to spare (Max recommended). For videos that talk, an ElevenLabs account for the voice.

It runs on your own Grok Bot, Claude and ElevenLabs plans. Reel Bot Factory is an independent Grok Bot, not made by xAI or Anthropic.
