Individual skill

blender-film

Make a short, realistic cinematic shot in Blender with Claude, start to finish - storyboard, city layout, a physics-driven flight path, a chase camera, a hero that moves like the real thing, a realism pass, night lighting that actually reads as night, handheld camera shake, sound designed from the 3D motion, an overnight render with automatic checks, and a "white clay build-up" reveal that proves it's real 3D. Use when someone wants a cinematic Blender shot / short film / drone or superhero flythrough made with Claude, asks to "do the whole workflow from the video", or wants any single step of it (physics path, night lighting, sound from motion, clay build-up).

# Blender film with Claude

The workflow behind a 10-second night FPV drone shot through a city: one storyboard, a real physics path, one pivot (the first hero
didn't work), night lighting, sound from the motion, a 3.5-hour render, and a clay build-up reveal. Every step below is a script in
`scripts/` that was actually run for that shot; names in them (`Drone Empty`, `Street Asphalt`, `Building_1`...) come from that
scene - rename them for yours.

## 0. Setup

- Blender 4.4+ (made on 5.2), a GPU for Cycles, Python 3 + `ffmpeg` on PATH (+ `numpy`, `scipy` for the sound step).
- **Live bridge** (Claude drives the open Blender, you watch): in Blender's Text Editor run `tools/bridge.py` (listens on
  127.0.0.1:9876). Then from a terminal: `python tools/send.py scripts/06_night.py` or `python tools/send.py -c "print(bpy.data.filepath)"`.
- Set `FILM_ROOT` to your project folder (default `~/blender-film`): `scene/`, `render/`, `audio/`, `research/` live there.
  `tools/lib.py` is loaded by every script (helpers: `coll()`, `save()`, `snap()`...).
