recentCodexIt's really hot, and the AI circle is talking about, especially about animating video with it with the Remotion plugin, and I've been brushing it several times, and I can't help but try。
I started out with a casual mind, but after a couple of videos, I was really shocked, something。
today's article, i'm talking about the idea and the process that i'm making, and how it differs from the video of dreamseedance 2.0 and how it works。
I. I made three successive videos with Codex + Remotion
I've done three or four cases this time, each of which actually corresponds to a different video scene, and I'm going to share my idea of how to do it, and I'm going to talk about it in the second part, so don't worry。
Cases 1, 2026, Chinese film rankings
This is the most shocking case I've ever seen, and it's the one that I think best reflects Codex+Remotion。
Because it almost ran the entire video production chain。
My request for it was simple, and I gave it this order:
- Help me make a short video of China's 2026 movie studio rankings, with the relevant film footage (downloading itself for about a few seconds each), with a high level of clarity, a consistent scale for each clip, with the results of the professional rankings, a search for + video material, and background music。
It then starts to call on its own search and query functions, to check lists, to plan what the whole video should do and to intercept high-light footage on official channels。
It's no different than making a video
I'll make the video and keep it on my computer。
Case 2, Change in Ageing Rate 2015-2025 in China and Japan
This case gives me the feeling that Codex+Remotion is particularly suited for data visualization。
For example, we normally see data such as ageing rates, demographics, economic data, changes in industry, and it's too boring to have a static table, which I saw when I went to school before。
But if you make it a dynamic contour, a little advance in the year, a little change in numbers, with a simple textual explanation, the whole thing would be much better understood。
My instructions are simple:
- Animation of the ageing rates in China and Japan, with trends and comparisons to be seen, from 2015 to 2025, with accurate data and self-censorship
THIS KIND OF VIDEO USED TO WORK ON AE。
BUT THE PROBLEM IS, AE STILL HAS A THRESHOLD FOR ORDINARY PEOPLE. I WOULDN'T
But it's easy to do it in Codex+Remotion, and it's easy to communicate in natural languages。
It's going to search for data itself, cross-check it and think about the whole animation。
And then try to write this in code, and then render it into video。
This is very useful for many people who do knowledge, industry reading, and media content。
Because much of the content is a missing expression, you have a very good trend judgment, but if it's written in words, the reader may not feel it, but it turns into a dynamic video, with a much lower understanding threshold and a better communication effect。
CASE 3, CONTENT EVOLUTION FROM PGC, UGC TO AIGC
This case, which is different from the two previous ones, is more abstract in terms of knowledge expression, with material and data at the heart of the previous film ranking and ageing rates。
THE CONCEPTS OF PGC, UGC, AIG HAVE BEEN HEARD BY MANY, BUT IT MAY BE SOMEWHAT ABSTRACT TO INTERPRET THEM IN WORDS ONLY。
FOR EXAMPLE, THE PGC IS A PROFESSIONAL PRODUCTION CONTENT, THE UGC IS A USER PRODUCTION CONTENT, THE AIGC IS AN ARTIFICIAL INTELLIGENCE-GENERATED CONTENT THAT MAY BE READ LIKE AN ENCYCLOPEDIA。
It would be much better if it were animated。
i'll just give this order to codex:
- I want to do an animated effect with a remotion that shows the evolution of Chinese content from PGC (specialized media generation content), to UGC (public generation content), and to AIGC (artificial intelligence generation content), by designing a set of programs for me to ensure that it achieves a fantastic effect, while at the same time being able to express the evolution of the whole content. Give me the plan first. I'll let you do it for me when I'm clear
The first version of the plan was designed and made into a piece, and then I made it work
That means that Codex + Remotion is not just a data video; it translates abstract knowledge into animation。
THIS ABILITY IS PARTICULARLY VALUABLE TO PEOPLE WHO DO KNOWLEDGE IP。
YOU USED TO USE WORDS, PPTS, MOUTHS, AND NOW THERE'S ANOTHER WAY TO MAKE ANIMATED KNOWLEDGE。
ii. What is the Remotion Plugin? Why call in Codex
A lot of people might have had it with dreams, covens, RunwayAI VideoTools mix, but they're not really one kind of thing。
THIS IS AN AI VIDEO GENERATION MODEL, WHERE YOU ENTER A HINT THAT DIRECTLY GENERATES A PICTURE BASED ON A HINT, SUCH AS A PERSON'S WALK, A CAMERA EXERCISE, A FILM-SENSITIZATION SCENE, A PRODUCT COMMERCIAL。
This tool is well suited for visual creativity, story-story images, reality lenses, advertising footage。
But it's also more obvious that it's less manageable, and it's sometimes difficult for you to make it strictly by a number, a chart, a timeline, a layout。
Remotion is not the same. It is essentially a code-based video-making tool。
You can write the text, diagrams, animations, turns, time axes in code, and then render it into video。
Its advantage is controllability。
For example, the height of a column, where a line begins to end and a title stays for a few seconds can be precisely controlled by code。
Now, with a desktop-end intelligence like Codex, we can go directly to the CDex to call this remotion plugin, and you're in charge of demand, Codex is in charge of understanding needs and writing the Remotion code。
It's the equivalent of Remotion providing a set of code-based video-making capabilities, and Codex has turned the natural language into the code。
how do you use a remotion plugin in the codex
First, make sure your computer is equipped with Codexit's enough to use the installation tutorial, from zero base to reality.
once the codex is installed, open the codex and you can see the following interface, click on the left plugin, enter the search box and then jump out of the plugin and click on the installation。
when installed, in the dialogue box of the codex, enter the @ symbol, you jump out of a drop-down box and you can find this remotion plugin and click on it。
click and then you have this icon and name in the dialogue box, and then you enter your hint, click to send, and you can generate a video. isn't that very simple
iii. Which videos are best used for Codex+Remotion
The first is the data ranking video。
THIS IS THE CASE OF MOVIE BOXING, GAME SALES, URBAN GDP, COMPANY MARKET VALUE, BRAND SALES, ETC。
The video itself has a natural attraction because people like to watch rankings and change。
The second category is data visualization。
For example, contour, column, pie, trend, comparison. As long as you have data in your content, you can think of it as a dynamic video。
The third category is knowledge-based and conceptual evolution。
For example, how an industry develops, how a concept emerges, how a technology evolves, and which steps are included in a methodology that is all appropriate for animating。
The fourth category is product introduction and web content re-creation。
For example, a product network, a product description, an article, a report can be given to Codex to extract information for you and then make a video with Remotion。
But Codex + Remotion is not all-powerful, and if you're going to be a reality show, a complex play, a movie-sensitization shot, or a big, emotional visual movie, it's still best to use soedance 2.0。
And the first version of Codex doesn't have to be 100% perfect, so if it doesn't work, it can just be modified。
but it's really exhausting token. token's burning a little fast
If you want to do it, you can do it one step at a time with the teaching of my article. It's easy to talk. You don't need to understand the code。
Codex+Remotion is not a substitute for all video productions, but it is worth trying if you often do knowledge, data graphs, rankings, product introductions。
LIKE A LOT OF PUBLIC CALLERS, VIDEO NUMBER CREATORS, COURSE DEVELOPERS, KNOWLEDGE IPS, IT'S SUPPOSED TO BE APPROPRIATE, AND IT MIGHT OPEN UP A NEW IDEA FOR YOU。
IN THE FUTURE, WE'LL BE DOING THINGS IN A WAY THAT IS MORE AND MORE LIKE DIRECTING AN AI TEAM THAT IS RESPONSIBLE FOR THINKING, JUDGING AND EXPRESSING, AND AI IS RESPONSIBLE FOR IMPLEMENTING, GENERATING AND MODIFYING。
