Claude Code + Higgsfield: Animated Websites Are Here

In the video, Leon demonstrates how to transform a static landing page created with Claude Code into an engaging, animated website by integrating personalized avatars generated and animated using Higgsfield AI tools. He guides viewers through setting up the project, creating and refining animated avatars, and seamlessly embedding them into the webpage to enhance visual appeal and interactivity with minimal manual effort.

In this video, Leon demonstrates how to enhance a basic landing page created with Claude Code by adding a personalized, animated avatar using Higgsfield AI. Starting with a clean but static webpage, he explains how uploading an avatar and incorporating subtle animations can bring the page to life. He introduces the integration of Claude Code with Higgsfield’s tools, which simplifies the process of generating and animating characters directly within the development workflow.

Leon guides viewers through setting up the project by downloading a starter repository from GitHub and installing necessary dependencies. He then focuses on generating a friendly robot avatar using Higgsfield’s CLI tool, which integrates seamlessly with Claude Code. By providing specific prompts, he creates multiple avatar variations with a clean white background, ideal for animation. He emphasizes the importance of leaving enough white space around the avatar to accommodate future animations without clipping.

Next, Leon shows how to add the chosen avatar to the webpage, positioning it alongside text within a styled frame. He enhances the visual appeal by requesting a typing animation beneath the avatar, making the landing page more dynamic and engaging. The video then shifts to animating the avatar itself using Higgsfield’s video generation model, C-Tons 2, to create a subtle idle animation featuring breathing, head movement, and blinking. He notes that video generation can take several minutes and shares tips for ensuring the animation loops perfectly.

Leon addresses common issues such as incorrect aspect ratios, background colors, and avatar orientation by iterating prompts with Claude Code to refine the video output. He also demonstrates how to remove audio from the generated video using FFmpeg commands scripted by Claude Code, ensuring the animation fits seamlessly into the website without unwanted sound. Finally, he integrates the animated avatar video into the landing page, adjusting layout and responsiveness to maintain a polished, modern look across devices.

To conclude, Leon recaps the process of transforming a static landing page into an engaging, animated experience by leveraging AI tools for image and video generation. He encourages viewers to try the workflow themselves, providing links to the GitHub repository and Higgsfield AI, which offers free credits for new users. The video highlights the power of combining Claude Code and Higgsfield AI to create visually appealing, interactive web content with minimal manual effort.
