# Turn your release notes into a video

Give your next release a film of its own.

Bring your release notes and give the update a story. This 74-second videoFn 1.2 film shows new tools, smoother motion and automatic review through animated scenes you can edit.

videoFn is a Mac video editor that Claude or ChatGPT can drive. Describe the video, watch it come together in the preview and give notes. If you'd rather fix something yourself, the editor is right there.

The videoFn 1.2 release film. 74 seconds of editable text, shapes, groups and shaders, made in videoFn. Unmute for the audio.

## Release notes, for people who don't read them.

You shipped forty-three improvements and wrote them up carefully. Eleven people read the post, and four of them were checking whether you fixed their bug.

A short film puts the same news in front of everyone else. Give videoFn the notes, and Claude or ChatGPT groups the changes into chapters, builds animated scenes for the ones worth showing and times it all to the music.

## Bullet points in. Chapters out.

Release notes, for example

* \- Add 3D transforms to any layer
* \- Add blend modes
* \- Loop keyframes
* \- Smoother easing on motion
* \- Automatic review of text and cuts
* \- Fix export stall on long projects
* \- Fix typo in the settings tooltip

The 1.2 film's chapters

1. 1New creative tools3D transforms, blend modes and looping keyframes, shown working on animated control panels.
2. 2Smoother motionOne scene about how things move, which is easier to show than to describe.
3. 3Automatic reviewWhat the checks catch, in a few seconds.
4. 4A fully editable projectThe closing point, and the reason the next film takes less time.

## Next release, mostly done already.

Not every line deserves a scene. The agent picks the changes people will notice and leaves the typo fixes in the written notes, where the people who care will find them.

The film is built from editable text, shapes and motion rather than screen grabs. Next release, change the words and swap the scenes that changed, and the film is mostly made already. Post the full version with the announcement and cut a short teaser for social.

## Questions, answered.

What do I give it?

Your release notes, as a file or pasted into the chat. Add screen recordings if you want the real interface in it. Without them, videoFn builds the scenes from text, shapes and motion.

How long should a release video be?

As long as the interesting changes, which is usually under a minute. The videoFn 1.2 film above runs 74 seconds across four chapters.

Does it need music?

It helps. videoFn finds the beats in your track and the agent times the scenes to them. Use music you have the rights to, or a generated voiceover if you'd rather explain than set a mood.

Can I reuse it for the next release?

Yes. The project stays editable, so you change the words, swap the scenes that changed and export again.
