Music video director

Plan every shot, then film it to your song

Music Video Director turns one song into a timed shot list (30 seconds by default), with each shot's picture, camera move, and lyric line, plus a key visual and opening and closing titles. From that plan it makes storyboard frames, brings each frame to motion, and joins the clips over your song with lyric captions in a video of up to two minutes, or makes a photo sing an excerpt. Music Video Director works in Claude Code, Codex, Cursor, and other agents that run Skills.

Questions

What do I start with?

The song: its lyrics, what it is about, or the finished track. Add the length and where it will be posted if you know.

Does the video play my song?

Yes. The clips are joined over your song from its first second, with the titles and lyric lines on screen. Send the chorus as its own file to set the chorus under the video.
