Apple-style Launch Film

Builds an Apple-keynote-style Mac product launch video entirely in code — no screen recording, no After Effects.

Image & VideoIntermediate★ 205⑂ 36AI score 9/10Last updated: Oct 11, 2026

What it does

  • Draws the entire Mac interface in code: a thin menu bar, the black notch at top centre, widgets that grow out of the notch one scene at a time, and a full-screen gradient wallpaper per scene.
  • Produces one self-contained HTML file exposing window.seek(seconds) so any exact frame can be rendered, then exports to MP4 via HyperFrames.
  • Starts by asking for five inputs — product name and one-liner, a facts list, 6–8 scenes with short captions, an optional reference folder, and size/length. Nothing outside the facts list is allowed on screen.
  • Encodes hard-won craft rules: spring the notch width/height instead of tweening, solve motion from the film start, keep the menu bar to ~5 items, compare each scene against reference frames, add a reduced-motion fallback.

Who it's for

  • Marketers and founders who want a launch video with Apple keynote polish
  • Front-end developers who'd rather control motion in code than in an NLE
  • Designers who need a version-controllable, endlessly tweakable video source

Example uses

  1. "Make an Apple-style launch video for my voice-notes app" → a 7-scene film opening with a handwritten "hello" as the notch expands
  2. Drop frames of a real Mac launch film into ref/ and ask for a look match → scene-by-scene side-by-side comparison and corrections
  3. Pass the finished MP4 to reel-export for a vertical short-form cut
