Agent clones 30s Kurzgesagt video in pure code: 720 frames, 99.4% frame match
RichardsonDx · x · 2026-11-10
Developer RichardsonDx used his custom tool Headless Motion to have an AI model (Muse Spark) design, build, and verify motion graphics entirely in code — no screen, no player, no timeline, and not a single pixel drawn by a generative model.
The result: a near-perfect clone of a 30-second Kurzgesagt video covering all 720 frames, with an average per-frame match of 99.4% and a worst frame at 98.9%. The key idea: deterministic tools execute the animation operations while the model operates the tools — "I built the instrument, the model played it, the instrument produced the frames."
Caveat: only tested on flat 2D vector animation at 720p. It's a notable demonstration of agents + deterministic tooling as an alternative to generative video.
