What is Remotion? Why is everyone now using it to create AI product demos & motion graphics?

In Episode 28 of Creative Flux, Pierson (@piersonmarks) and Bilal (@deepwhitman) dive into a project that's near and dear to our hearts: Remotion, founded by the extremely talented (and humble) Jonny Burger. Remotion is a programatic video generation library that enables the creation and rendering of videos using React components.

This week, Remotion launched a remotion-best-practices Claude Code skill, and almost immediately went viral. People were now able to prompt Claude Code to create professional-level motion graphics in a matter of minutes. Say goodbye to animated motion designers and $1000+ launch videos.

In Episode 27, Pierson Marks (@piersonmarks) and Bilal Tahir (@deepwhitman) explore the shift from single-agent power user to multi-agent orchestrator in AI-native development. We discuss how to run multiple Claude Code agents in parallel using Git worktrees, build AFK workflows that ship while you sleep, and implement the Ralph Wiggum loop pattern for autonomous overnight development. We'll cover notification-based oversight, Docker sandboxing for safe automation, and how to structure your system with skills, plugins, sub-agents, and the Model Context Protocol (MCP) so every future task compounds in speed and quality.
