Screen Video Creator

About

Screen Video Creator turns screenshots and photos into short, professional explainer videos — all processed locally on your machine.

HOW IT WORKS
1. Capture your screen or upload up to 5 photos
2. Add optional instructions to guide the AI (style, tone, focus areas)
3. Claude AI analyzes your images and creates a scene-by-scene video script
4. Remotion renders a polished MP4 video locally on your computer

FEATURES
• Screen Capture — one-click capture of any browser tab
• Photo Upload — drag and drop up to 5 images for multi-scene videos
• AI-Powered Directing — Claude Vision analyzes your content and builds a narrative with custom colors, scene types, and pacing
• Custom Instructions — tell the AI what style, tone, or content to focus on (up to 100 words)
• 7 Scene Types — title cards, screenshots, big text, bullet points, quotes, callouts, and endings
• Dynamic Styling — AI picks colors, mood, and visual theme based on your content and instructions
• Local Rendering — videos are rendered on your machine using Remotion, nothing is uploaded to the cloud
• Multiple Formats — vertical (9:16) or horizontal (16:9), 10/15/20 second durations
