Citypunks Website Design Workflow
Based on Kelly Skelly’s YouTube video:

1. Claude Design Prompt
Use Claude Design to generate the first wireframe.
Prompt
Create me a wireframe for a cyberpunk type game.
Large video hero with H1 and CTA bottom left.
I want a button/box that has a CTA for watching the trailer, and a main CTA to play the game.
The game should be called Citypunks.
The second section should be 2 features about the game.
Then a news section for updates from the game, 3 posts and a link to read more.
And a big full width CTA section to play the game and a footer.
2. Claude Design Output
Claude generates:
- 3 variants of the hero section
- Options to choose between A, B, or C for different sections
3. Refine the Design
Choose the preferred layout and ask Claude to develop it further.
Prompt
Let's go with A. Full style Nav.
Develop this into a high fidelity UI design.
4. Generate AI Assets
Use Midjourney to create the main hero image.
Midjourney Prompt
A sci-fi cyberpunk-esque female character standing facing away, holding a samurai sword down by her side, on a red solid background with subtle small sci-fi details.
Settings
Aspect ratio: 16:9
5. Add the Generated Image to Claude Design
After generating the image in Midjourney, bring it into Claude Design.
Claude Design Prompt
Let's use this as our full screen hero image and generate.
Claude should now generate the full website using the image.
6. Fix Responsiveness
The generated website may not be fully responsive. Ask Claude Design to fix the layout.
Claude Design Prompt
Perfect, let's fix the responsiveness of the site.
It should be fully responsive, and the navigation should become a burger icon which opens a full screen menu on mobile.
7. Handoff to Claude Code
At this stage, Kelly hands the project over to Claude Code because Claude Design is close to its usage limit.
Claude Code Prompt
Fetch this design file, read its readme, and implement the relevant aspects of the design.

Implement: Citypunks.html
8. Turn the Midjourney Image Into a Video
Go back to Midjourney and convert the generated hero image into a video.
Midjourney Video Options
Select the generated image used in the website, then choose:
- Loop
- Low Motion
- High Motion
Optional step shown by Kelly:
- Upscale the video to 4K using Astra
9. Add Video to Claude Code Project
Take the video back into Claude Code.
Claude Code Prompt
Change the hero image to BGvid.mp4 in the folder.
Also, compress the video down so it is suitable for web.
10. Complete Remaining Sections
Continue building out the page sections:
- Hero section with background video
- Feature section with 2 game features
- News section with 3 posts
- Read more link
- Full-width CTA section
- Footer
11. Generate More Assets
Go back to Midjourney and generate additional images or videos for the remaining sections of the page.
Use these assets to improve:
- Feature sections
- News cards
- Background visuals
- CTA section
- Supporting cyberpunk atmosphere
