60-second autonomous animated film with script, visuals, and narration

A developer gave Claude Code one prompt, a $10 external API budget, then walked away. 80 minutes later, Opus 5.5 delivered a complete 60-second animated film. It autonomously: • Wrote the script and animation • Generated the visuals and narration • Orchestrated 8 different APIs • Spent ~$20 on Claude + $3.21 on OpenRouter We’ve gone from: “Write this function.” to: “Here’s the brief and budget. Ship it.”
