3,000+ Lines of Code, Zero Image Generators: Opus 5.5 Programs Every Frame of a Cat Music Video
shaunralston · x · 2026-09-26
Developer shaunralston made a music video for his rescued stray cat, "Welcome Home, HoBo!" — with no image or video generators, no photos, and no stock footage. Every frame was programmed by Claude Opus 5.5 across 3,000+ lines of code.
It's a pure code-rendered creative demo: instead of calling text-to-image or text-to-video tools, the model writes programs that draw the visuals directly, showcasing an alternative, code-driven approach to generated video.
