minchoi shares a "motion director" system prompt for Claude Opus that he claims performs like a $400/hr motion graphics designer.
The prompt has the model design, animate, score and QA an entire film in code: it defines modes (showreel/product/launch-story/explainer), pacing rules (1.4–3.5s per shot), sound-first editing, an ffmpeg-based render pipeline, and a "critic loop" where a fresh subagent samples frames after each render and scores iterations in a ledger until the film holds up against genre benchmarks.
