Production path · Directed video models

Direct an external video model

Opus writes shots, prompts, and edits. Seedance, Runway, MiniMax, Higgsfield, or similar draw many of the pixels. Say so on the post.

  1. Step 1

    Split director and renderer

    Opus owns story, camera language, and continuity. The video model owns the photographic plate. OriSilver's Blender block-out into Seedance is the clean version of this split.

  2. Step 2

    Feed control, not vibes

    A low-poly camera move, a still, or a previous shot as reference beats a paragraph of adjectives. Keep the control pass in the repo.

  3. Step 3

    Log every call

    Which model, which clip, which credit burn. Gavin Purcell's Runway MCP documentary is Opus as a coordinator. The Netflix look is Runway.

Tools

  • Seedance, Runway, MiniMax H3, Higgsfield, fal
  • Blender or Three.js for blocking
  • Opus as the agent

Checks

  • Each shot is attributed to a tool
  • Identity holds across cuts if that matters
  • You are not labeling diffusion pixels as 'code-drawn'
  • Bills for video credits sit next to the Claude bill

In short

Can I still call it an Opus 5.5 video?
Yes, if Opus directed it and you say which model rendered it. The Awesome index keeps these in a separate path so people do not mix them with Canvas films.
