# 8 Seconds to Your Brain
> Use the **Motion Explainer Skill** (skill folder `motion-explainer`). Paste this whole file into Claude Code and start your message with `Use the motion-explainer skill.` It describes the finished video on Get Up Inside beat by beat: the same story, timing, captions and sound.
## How to get the same result
1. **Install the skill once:** copy the folder `skills/motion-explainer` from the ZIP into `~/.claude/skills/` (Windows: `%USERPROFILE%\.claude\skills\`) and restart Claude Code. Ask Claude "Which skills do you have?" and check that **motion-explainer** is in the list. If it is not, Claude will improvise and the video will look different.
2. **Start a new, empty folder** and open Claude Code in it. Your first message: `Use the motion-explainer skill. Set up the project (SETUP.md), then build this video exactly as written. Show me the plan table first, then stills at the timecodes below, before the full render.` Paste this whole file under it.
3. **Same voice lines:** record or generate the lines in the Voiceover section word for word. The timing of every scene comes from your voice file, so a different read moves the beats.
4. **Check before rendering:** approve the plan table, attach the reference pack (see the end of this prompt) and compare your stills with it at the same timecodes, and ask for fixes in plain words ("at 0:12 the camera is too close").
5. **Keep the numbers:** canvas, frame rate, length, colours and on-screen text are part of the look. Change the story only after your first render matches.
Results come out close to the sample, not pixel-identical: Claude builds the sets and characters fresh each time.
