Marketing Studio Agent

Skill by ara.so — Marketing Skills collection.

Marketing Studio is an agent-driven video rendering engine for Claude Code. Run /marketing from your product repo to generate a complete launch asset suite: 3D logo reveal, screen-captured product demo, hero launch video with voiceover/music, per-platform social clips, and OG assets. All rendering happens in a central engine repo using Remotion, Blender, Playwright, and ElevenLabs.

Installation

# Clone the engine repo
git clone https://github.com/ucsandman/marketing-studio.git
cd marketing-studio

# Install dependencies
cd studio && npm install && cd ..

# Configure (optional: Blender path, ElevenLabs API key)
cp .env.example .env

# Install skills into Claude Code
node scripts/install-skills.mjs

# Verify toolchain
python launch.py --check

The install script copies skills to ~/.claude/skills and links them to your cloned engine path.

Core Workflow

The /marketing Command

From your product repo:

claude
> /marketing

This runs the full pipeline:

1. Brand onboarding – Derives brand tokens from your design system (or prompts for them)
2. Logo reveal – 3D Blender animation composited in Remotion
3. Product demo – Playwright captures your running app with camera zooms
4. Launch video – 30-90s hero video combining demo, logo, copy
5. Audio track – ElevenLabs voiceover and music scored to video
6. Social clips – Platform-specific cuts (X, LinkedIn, TikTok)
7. OG assets – Static image, animated loop, README GIF

Individual Skills

Run any asset type standalone:

> /logo-reveal
> /product-demo
> /launch-video
> /audio-track
> /social-clip
> /og-assets

Brand Configuration

Brands are defined in brands/<id>.json:

{
  "id": "myproduct",
  "name": "MyProduct",
  "tagline": "Ship faster, break less",
  "colors": {
    "primary": "#3b82f6",
    "secondary": "#8b5cf6",
    "accent": "#f59e0b",
    "background": "#000000",
    "foreground": "#ffffff",
    "muted": "#6b7280",
    "success": "#10b981",
    "warning": "#f59e0b",
    "error": "#ef4444",
    "text": "#f9fafb",
    "textMuted": "#9ca3af",
    "border": "#374151",
    "surface": "#111827"
  },
  "fonts": {
    "heading": "Inter",
    "body": "Inter",
    "mono": "JetBrains Mono"
  },
  "voice": {
    "tone": "confident, technical, no fluff",
    "avoid": ["AI slop", "game-changer", "revolutionary"]
  }
}

Register the brand in studio/src/lib/brand.ts:

import { z } from 'zod';

export const BrandSchema = z.object({
  id: z.string(),
  name: z.string(),
  tagline: z.string(),
  colors: z.object({
    primary: z.string(),
    secondary: z.string(),
    accent: z.string(),
    // ... all 13 colors
  }),
  fonts: z.object({
    heading: z.string(),
    body: z.string(),
    mono: z.string(),
  }),
  voice: z.object({
    tone: z.string(),
    avoid: z.array(z.string()),
  }),
});

export type Brand = z.infer<typeof BrandSchema>;

export function getBrand(brandId: string): Brand {
  const brandData = require(`../../brands/${brandId}.json`);
  return BrandSchema.parse(brandData);
}

Add a logo mark component in studio/src/brands/<id>Mark.tsx:

import React from 'react';

export const MyProductMark: React.FC<{
  size?: number;
  color?: string;
}> = ({ size = 100, color = '#3b82f6' }) => {
  return (
    <svg width={size} height={size} viewBox="0 0 100 100">
      <circle cx="50" cy="50" r="40" fill={color} />
    </svg>
  );
};

Manual Rendering

Remotion Commands

Render any composition directly:

cd studio

# Logo reveal
npx remotion render LogoReveal ../out/myproduct/logo.mp4 \
  --props='{"brandId":"myproduct","cta":"Watch the launch"}'

# Product demo
npx remotion render ProductDemo ../out/myproduct/demo.mp4 \
  --props='{"brandId":"myproduct","captureVideo":"../assets/captures/demo.mp4"}'

# Launch video
npx remotion render LaunchVideo ../out/myproduct/launch.mp4 \
  --props='{"brandId":"myproduct","demoVideo":"../out/myproduct/demo.mp4","script":["Hook","Problem","Solution"]}'

# Social clip
npx remotion render SocialClip ../out/myproduct/social-x.mp4 \
  --props='{"brandId":"myproduct","platform":"x","feature":"Real-time sync"}'

# Animated OG
npx remotion render AnimatedOG ../out/myproduct/og.mp4 \
  --props='{"brandId":"myproduct"}'

Feeder Scripts

Capture Product Demo

cd feeders/capture
node capture.mjs \
  --url http://localhost:3000 \
  --output ../../assets/captures/demo.mp4 \
  --brand myproduct \
  --script zoom-dashboard,click-feature,pan-results

Render Blender Logo

cd feeders/blender
python render_logo.py \
  --brand myproduct \
  --output ../../assets/blender/logo-frames/ \
  --style draw-on

Generate Audio

cd feeders/audio
node generate.mjs \
  --script "Ship your product in days, not months" \
  --voice-id "ELEVENLABS_VOICE_ID" \
  --output ../../assets/audio/voiceover.mp3

node generate.mjs \
  --type music \
  --mood energetic \
  --duration 60 \
  --output ../../assets/audio/music.mp3

Set ELEVENLABS_API_KEY in .env.

Props Builders

Generate render props via builder scripts:

# Build launch video props
node scripts/build-launch-props.mjs \
  --brand myproduct \
  --demo-video ./assets/captures/demo.mp4 \
  --script "Hook line" "Problem statement" "Solution demo" \
  --output ./props/launch-myproduct.json

# Build social clip props
node scripts/build-social-props.mjs \
  --brand myproduct \
  --platform x \
  --feature "Real-time collaboration" \
  --output ./props/social-x-myproduct.json

Props files are JSON:

{
  "brandId": "myproduct",
  "demoVideo": "./assets/captures/demo.mp4",
  "logoRevealVideo": "./out/myproduct/logo.mp4",
  "script": [
    {"type": "hook", "text": "Ship in days, not months", "duration": 3},
    {"type": "problem", "text": "Marketing assets take weeks", "duration": 4},
    {"type": "solution", "text": "One command, full suite", "duration": 5}
  ],
  "voiceover": "./assets/audio/voiceover.mp3",
  "music": "./assets/audio/music.mp3"
}

Environment Variables

# .env
BLENDER_PATH=/Applications/Blender.app/Contents/MacOS/Blender
ELEVENLABS_API_KEY=your_api_key_here
COMFYUI_URL=http://localhost:8188

All are optional; feeders degrade gracefully without them.

Verification & Testing

# Full toolchain health check
python launch.py --check

# Render frame 0 of every composition (smoke test)
node scripts/smoke.mjs

# Brand schema validation
cd studio && npm test

# Launch Remotion Studio for interactive preview
python launch.py

Key Patterns

Resume on Failure

The pipeline writes a run manifest to .marketing-run.json:

{
  "brand": "myproduct",
  "timestamp": "2026-07-10T12:00:00Z",
  "completed": ["logo-reveal", "product-demo"],
  "current": "launch-video",
  "props": {
    "logoRevealVideo": "./out/myproduct/logo.mp4",
    "demoVideo": "./out/myproduct/demo.mp4"
  }
}

Re-running /marketing resumes from the last incomplete step.

Camera Zoom Math

Product demo captures use measured easing for professional zooms:

// studio/src/lib/camera.ts
export function calculateZoom(
  frame: number,
  duration: number,
  startScale: number = 1,
  endScale: number = 1.2
): number {
  const progress = frame / duration;
  const eased = 1 - Math.pow(1 - progress, 3); // cubic ease-out
  return startScale + (endScale - startScale) * eased;
}

Seamless Loop Rules

Animated OG loops must start and end on identical frames:

// studio/src/compositions/AnimatedOG.tsx
export const AnimatedOG: React.FC<{brandId: string}> = ({brandId}) => {
  const frame = useCurrentFrame();
  const {durationInFrames} = useVideoConfig();
  const brand = getBrand(brandId);
  
  // Normalize to [0, 1) for seamless loop
  const progress = (frame % durationInFrames) / durationInFrames;
  const rotation = progress * 360;
  
  return (
    <AbsoluteFill style={{backgroundColor: brand.colors.background}}>
      <div style={{transform: `rotate(${rotation}deg)`}}>
        {/* logo mark */}
      </div>
    </AbsoluteFill>
  );
};

Platform-Specific Social Clips

Aspect ratios and safe zones per platform:

// studio/src/compositions/SocialClip.tsx
const PLATFORM_SPECS = {
  x: { width: 1280, height: 720, safeZone: 0.1 },
  linkedin: { width: 1280, height: 720, safeZone: 0.1 },
  tiktok: { width: 1080, height: 1920, safeZone: 0.15 },
  instagram: { width: 1080, height: 1920, safeZone: 0.12 },
};

export const SocialClip: React.FC<{
  brandId: string;
  platform: keyof typeof PLATFORM_SPECS;
  feature: string;
}> = ({brandId, platform, feature}) => {
  const spec = PLATFORM_SPECS[platform];
  const safeWidth = spec.width * (1 - 2 * spec.safeZone);
  
  return (
    <AbsoluteFill style={{width: spec.width, height: spec.height}}>
      {/* content */}
    </AbsoluteFill>
  );
};

Troubleshooting

Blender Not Found

Error: Blender executable not found at /Applications/Blender.app

Set BLENDER_PATH in .env or skip 3D logo reveals (pipeline falls back to 2D).

ElevenLabs Rate Limit

Error: 429 Too Many Requests

Audio generation is optional. Pipeline renders video without voiceover if API fails.

Playwright Capture Timeout

Error: Page did not load within 30s

Ensure your dev server is running on the correct port. Capture script waits for networkidle state.

Remotion Memory Error

Error: JavaScript heap out of memory

Set Node memory limit:

export NODE_OPTIONS="--max-old-space-size=8192"
npx remotion render ...

Brand Schema Validation Failed

Error: Invalid brand JSON

Run cd studio && npm test to see schema violations. All 13 colors, 3 fonts, and voice rules are required.

Best Practices

1. Run smoke test after brand changes: node scripts/smoke.mjs catches schema errors before full renders
2. Use props builders: Never hand-edit props JSON; use scripts/build-*-props.mjs
3. Film demo last in UI work: Run /polish and /frontend-verify before /product-demo
4. Score audio after picture lock: Don't generate voiceover until launch video script is final
5. Test locally before /marketing: Run individual skills (/logo-reveal, /product-demo) to debug brand tokens
6. Keep run manifest: Don't delete .marketing-run.json during active runs (enables resume)

Related Skills

• /polish – Final UI quality pass before demo filming
• /frontend-verify – Headless route verification (console errors, failed requests)
• /de-vibe – Remove AI-generated fingerprints before shipping
• /launch – Generate announcement drafts per channel

All supporting skills install with scripts/install-skills.mjs.
