Overview
OpenFilm represents a film as a folder with a film.html, where each track is a section of clips (pages, video, images, audio). Each shot is a web page that draws any moment through a frame(t) function. A coding agent such as Claude Code or Codex writes the film, and Studio, a browser-based editor, lets you change it by hand. The CLI renders MP4, GIF, alpha video and timelines for Final Cut Pro, Premiere Pro and DaVinci Resolve.
Who it is for: Developers who want a coding agent to make and edit videos
Strengths
- Deterministic frame(t) contract; look renders frames twice in shuffled order and flags any that differ
- Studio edits are saved to the film files, so the agent sees and keeps them
- Exports MP4, GIF, stems, subtitles, transparent video and NLE timelines for Premiere, Resolve and FCP
- Works with any coding agent via skills; no account needed to make and render films
Weaknesses
- Studio should be used in a Chromium browser so the preview matches the export
- Generated voice, music, images and video need third-party service keys or an OpenFilm sign-in
- Desktop app is only offered for macOS and Windows
- Shots must be pure functions of t; Python, Blender or video-model output has to come in as media files
What it needs
- Needs Node 22.2+, ffmpeg, git, headless Chromium (about 100 MB, downloaded on first run)
- Models: ElevenLabs, OpenAI, Google, OpenRouter, fal
