A custom Claude Code animation skill
I’ll set up the Inkworks film engine for your channel: real 3D sets, a flat 2D cast and a moving camera. You get your own recurring characters and sets, plus a Claude Code skill tuned to your workflow. You write the script, Claude builds the film.
The older 2D canvas style is also available. Allow about 7 business days after we agree the brief. You’ll need Claude Code, Blender, Python, ffmpeg and a dedicated GPU. The Blender scripts are GPL.
- The Inkworks engine, set up for your videos
- Your recurring characters and sets
- A Claude Code skill tuned to your format and workflow
- Voiceover, word-synced captions and sound pipeline
- One finished example video made with your setup
- A walkthrough guide and 14 days of fixes
Fixed price agreed by email before you pay. 50% upfront, 50% on delivery. A new visual style built from scratch starts at $1,500.
From your story to final cut
You see the whole film as a storyboard before anything is rendered, so changes stay small and nothing is a surprise.

Good to know
Is this AI animation?
No AI image or video generators are involved. The 3D films use Blender sets, painted textures and a flat cast. Earlier work uses our 2D canvas engine.
Do you write the script?
Yes. Send the story, facts or a link, and I write a tight, researched script with sources. You approve it before animation begins. If you already have a script, I'll work from that.
Who does the voice?
You choose: our narrator, a professional voice actor (add-on), or a voice from your own team. Narration is never sped up to fit; we cut words instead.
Who owns the finished video?
You do. You get perpetual, worldwide rights to use it anywhere: social, ads, your site, exhibits. I may show it in my portfolio unless you'd rather I didn't.
How do payment and revisions work?
50% to start, 50% before final delivery. Two revision rounds are included; extra rounds are $300. Fixed prices, agreed upfront.
Can you match our brand?
Yes. Your colours, your logo on in-world signs, and with a Brand Style Build, your mascot or founder as a recurring cartoon character.
