Free playbook · Reel 003
From idea to MP4 in your Drive.
The full pipeline behind my Cat UGC reel — Claude Code, Gemini and Remotion working together. Eleven stages. Every prompt. One ASCII tree of the whole repo.
What’s inside
- The eleven stages — idea → skill → style → references → props → branding → script → Remotion → merge → render → ship.
- The POV-flip framework — rewrite captions in your subject’s voice (cat, dog, product, customer). The reel’s sharpest hook.
- Working Gemini prompts — the character anchor, the prop generator, the reference-anchor pattern that keeps your character identical across 20 frames.
- The Remotion build — three React components, locked timings, the subject-aware crop trap and how to fix it in one line.
- An ASCII tree of the project — every file, what it does, where it lives. So you can replicate the layout in your repo.
- Render → Drive → email — one command lands an MP4 on your Desktop, pushes it to your Drive folder, and emails you the link.
