Celebrate a big birthday with an animated life timeline video
The years roll by on screen and each memory pops up on its year, like the opening of a documentary.
A sample of what you get back, made with AI.

Claude and ChatGPT open with your prompt already typed in. Gemini can't be filled in from a link, so its button copies your prompt: paste it into the new chat.
The prompt that gets copied
Make an animated life timeline video as one web page that plays by itself in the preview. It's a gift for [THE OCCASION, e.g. my mom's 70th birthday]. Their first name: [THEIR FIRST NAME, e.g. Linda]. Here are the moments, with years, in order: [PASTE YOUR MOMENTS] Show a timeline that glides from the first year to today. For each moment, the year counts up, then a short caption appears with a simple drawn icon that fits it (a house, a ring, a baby carriage, a diploma). Keep each moment on screen for about 4 seconds so people can read it. Use only the moments and years I gave you. Feel: [THE MOOD, e.g. warm, nostalgic and a little funny]. Soft colors, gentle motion, big readable text, no sound. End on: [CLOSING LINE, e.g. 70 years of Linda. Happy birthday!]. Start on one blank second, hold the end for 3 seconds, and add a Replay button below the frame.
List the big moments of someone's life and Claude turns them into an animated timeline that travels through the years. Play it at the party or send it to the family.

What you'll get
A warm animated timeline of someone's life, built from your own list, that you can record and play at the party or send to family.
