Can Claude Code make a launch film that holds up next to Apple, Anthropic and OpenAI? I gave Claude Code (Opus 5.5) three real launch films and had it rebuild each one with my StackEngine brand and my words. It rebuilt all three in under two hours. No video generator: real photos, my own screens, and code.

I play each one side by side with the original and score it: Apple's Creator Studio film (35 seconds, big bold words on the beat), Anthropic's Opus 5.5 launch film (20 seconds, 38 cuts) and OpenAI's ChatGPT Work film (56 seconds, 18 shots). My test was simple: watching ours with fresh eyes, would I go "wow, that's good"?

Then I walk through how it was built in StackEngine HQ. Claude studied each original cut by cut, found the music, picked 37 photos out of 144, built each film in HyperFrames on the original's exact cut times, checked its own work, and fixed what I flagged.

The scores: Apple 8.5, Anthropic 8.5, OpenAI 9. What held ours back wasn't the build. It was the assets.

Which one would you have scored higher? Let me know in the comments.
