Creates motion graphics and videos using Remotion (React) with audio sync, web fonts, TailwindCSS, animations, charts, 3D, subtitles, and rendering. For product demos, explainers, data viz.
Generates MP4 videos from React components using Remotion. Covers animations, timing, rendering (CLI/Node.js/Lambda/Cloud Run), captions, 3D, charts, text effects, transitions. Use when building data-driven video pipelines.
Applies Disney's 12 animation principles to After Effects compositions, Premiere Pro motion, video titles, explainer videos, and broadcast motion graphics.

This skill builds on Remotion skills for core Remotion API patterns:
npx skills add remotion-dev/skills
npx oanim init my-video
cd my-video
@oanim/coreimport { fadeUp, popIn, Background, SafeArea, palettes } from '@oanim/core';
See references/animation-cookbook.md for the full presets reference.
npx remotion studio
npx oanim render
MCP tools (preferred — works in Cowork and any MCP-enabled environment):
| Tool | Use |
|---|---|
gen_image | Generate images from text prompts |
edit_image | Edit existing images with prompts |
remove_bg | Remove background from an image |
upscale | Upscale image 2x |
gen_video | Generate video from text (async, polls until done) |
gen_audio | Generate audio/music from text (async, polls until done) |
run_model | Run any fal.ai model with custom input |
CLI (fallback — requires outbound HTTP):
npx oanim assets gen-image --prompt "dark gradient abstract" --out public/bg.png
npx oanim assets run --model fal-ai/kling-video/v2.5-turbo/pro/text-to-video \
--input '{"prompt":"cinematic abstract motion","duration":"5"}' --out public/clip.mp4
npx oanim assets run --model beatoven/music-generation \
--input '{"prompt":"ambient electronic, no vocals","duration_in_seconds":30}' --out public/music.mp3
Then use in your composition:
import { Img, OffthreadVideo, Audio, staticFile } from 'remotion';
<Img src={staticFile('bg.png')} style={{ width: '100%', height: '100%', objectFit: 'cover' }} />
<OffthreadVideo src={staticFile('clip.mp4')} style={{ width: '100%', height: '100%', objectFit: 'cover' }} />
<Audio src={staticFile('music.mp3')} volume={0.25} />
