## What it does

A toolbox of film styles for Claude Code by Lemomo: each style is a style prompt plus a demo film rendered entirely in code by Claude Opus 5.5, with no video model. The skill directs and produces a short film in a named style (Impasto Oil Painting, Watercolor Brush, Ukiyo-e, Satellite Briefing, Exploded Teardown and dozens more), helps choose a style when you only have a topic, and lets you remix a style or build your own from a blank page. Explainer styles can be built from real material such as satellite imagery, laser scans, CAD files or archive scans, and documentary styles cut new films from archive footage and documents. It reached 8K GitHub stars within a month of launch.

## Use when

- Make a short film, explainer or promo in a named visual style
- Pick a style for your own topic
- Cut real archive footage or scans into a documentary-style film

## Not for

- Plain editing, trimming or converting your existing video files (the skill excludes them)

## Install

- Claude Code: `claude plugin marketplace add lemomo-ai/lemo-opuscar && claude plugin install lemo-opuscar@lemolab`

## Example output

https://skills.varg.ai/previews/lemo-opuscar.mp4 — From the Impasto style's demo film 'The Colour of Rain' (web release of the repo), made entirely in code: a cellist's music paints color into a grey rainy street, then a top view of umbrellas. Cut 19.5-27.5 s of 39.7 s. (credit: Lemomo (lemo-opuscar), https://github.com/lemomo-ai/lemo-opuscar#readme)
