The Arrow of Time: A 6-Minute AI Film Made in a Weekend with Claude Code, Open-Sourced
usertheone · reddit · 2026-09-29
A Redditor used Claude Code with Opus 5.5 to create "The Arrow of Time" in a single weekend: a 6-minute animated film spanning the Big Bang to the heat death of the universe, with all scenes and music generated by Claude (except the moon landing transmission). Starting from one straightforward prompt and iterating on feedback, the author open-sourced the project on GitHub for others to fork. Notably, the model struggled with 3D human models, so the film leans on silhouettes instead.
