# Pelican on a Bicycle · Coastal 3D Animation

consumer451 pasted Simon Willison’s published pelican animation code into the Claude web app and used the author-reported Claude Opus 5 High setting to make this coastal 3D animation. The first opening view looked down from about 30°. A second prompt adjusted the opening camera, and its full wording and a separate first-pass artifact were not published. The author later shared a related Opus 5.5 High retry and noted that the web app’s system prompt or skills could also have changed.
