How to make 3B1B videos using Claude and Manim

15th Mar 2025

3 Blue 1 Brown is an amazing Youtube resource to learn Math and Physics concepts from! Manim is an opensource package created by them to help generate the animations they use to teach these concepts. In this article, I will create a similar video with the help of Claude and Manim!

  • First, install miktex
  • Then, in powershell, install ffmpeg : run choco install ffmpeg
  • Create a new virtual environment and install manim and manimgl - uv pip install manim manimgl
  • Use Claude to generate a manim program for a formula or something you want to demonstrate - E.g. : My Claude Example
  • Create a program that you got out of claude - Manim Program for x-squared
  • Execute it - manim -pql xsquared.py ExplainXSquared

This results in this beautiful 3 Blue 1 Brown like video! - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5Ql_vAj0ZVs
