How to Create Animated Motion Graphic Videos with Claude Design

Claude Design now supports creating professionally designed motion graphic animated videos directly from a single prompt. This tutorial walks through the exact workflow, from template selection to final output, demonstrating how to promote a product with an animated video built entirely inside Claude's design interface.

Setting Up the Animation Template

To get started, navigate to Claude Design and select "From Template." Choose the Animation option and click "Create From Template." Before building, you can optionally add your own design system with details about your business, logos, and branding -- a feature covered in a previous video by this creator.

Building the Animated Video

The example demonstrates promoting a book called "Video Authority" that is available on Amazon. The workflow involves grabbing a picture of the book cover, copying the entire Amazon product page text, and pasting it into Claude Design along with a simple prompt: "Create an Animated Video Promoting Video Authority and that it's now available on Amazon."

The Result

Claude handles all the work behind the scenes -- planning the entire video sequence, then generating a fully animated motion graphic. The output includes animated transitions, the book cover popping up with all its details, and professional-quality motion design. All from one prompt, one image, and pasted text.

• Use the Animation template under "From Template" to access this feature
