From Tech Novice to Video Pro - Easily Make Product Promo Videos with Codex and HyperFrames

The AI image-generation collection site I recently launched, citu, has already received plenty of likes and feedback. With citu, we don't have to laboriously collect and pick prompts from all over the web every day; everything is right there at a glance on Citu, within easy reach. Now I'm planning to make a quick promo video for it.

The tool I'm using to make the video today, HyperFrames, is a code-driven video production framework open-sourced by HeyGen. Its core advantage is that you don't need to open any editing software at all: just write code and render the video.

Since that's the case, let's use Codex + HyperFrames to make a promo video and see how it turns out.

Your browser does not support video playback

The result is, I'd say, very good. From a technical standpoint, it's far better than what I'd patch together by editing things myself, and it's directly usable.

How to Use It

• First, you need an agent that writes code. I recommend OpenAI's Codex here; if you don't have it, I suggest downloading and installing codex first

• After entering the App, search for "HyperFrames" in the Plugins bar on the left and click add.
  

  

  Then just tell Codex directly the style of video you want, write a simple prompt, and specify using the HyperFramesplugin, and let it make the video for you. All you have to do is wait for it to finish running.

One good suggestion: if you happen to be making a promo video for your own product, interact with it from inside your product's project directory, so it can get the materials it needs on its own, based on your project.
