Coming up on Office Hours! Claude Opus 5.5 and the Rise of Code-Generated Motion Design
Instead of generating pixels, Claude Opus 5.5 writes the animation as code and renders every frame. This week we dig into what’s actually happening under the hood, how to direct it like a motion designer, and where it fits alongside video models in a workflow.

Coming up on Machine Cinema Office Hours! Instagram has announced it is testing Features, long-form horizontal videos up to 90 minutes long, alongside a dedicated hub for Series and Lives inside the Reels tab.
If a feature can premiere inside Instagram, does the standalone short become a trailer for itself? Does episodic become the default way to release AI work? And if one platform owns the whole journey, from the first clip to the finished film, who owns the audience at the end of it?
Congrats on the @Gossip_Goblin @MachineCinemaAI GenJam win!!
Won first place in the Gossip Goblin GenJam in San Francisco
We received assets from the upcoming Gossip Goblin project on the day of the competition and had an extremely short time to put together a story , competing alongside a room full of talented creators.
lots of fun!
