OUR NOTEA step-by-step explainer animation on earthquake physics showing plates creeping past each other, a locked fault bending a road as strain energy builds, seismic waves radiating from the hypocenter, and square areas comparing magnitude energy.
I asked Claude Opus 5.5 to explain the earthquake physics as an animation. This is what it built, physically accurate strain profile included.

Three steps, using what the creators in this index used.- 1 · Copy the prompt
Use the prompt above as your starting point, then change the subject and the style.
HOW OTHERS WROTE THEIRS → - 2 · Direct it like an editor
- Ask for one self-contained HTML file on a fixed 1920×1080 stage.
- Link this video as the reference for pacing and style.
- Send two or three rounds of specific notes.
- 3 · Render it to MP4
A short piece like this can be screen-recorded, or captured frame by frame for exact timing.

The creator didn't name their tools. Most videos like this are HTML, canvas or SVG animation written by Claude and screen-recorded or rendered to MP4 — how that works.
