Claude and Higgsfield: AI Images Inside Your Web Design Workflow
Generate on-brand imagery for a real project, then place it in a real layout — without the plastic AI look.
About this build
Making video assets used to mean a camera, a studio and a day. For a lot of what a website needs, that's no longer true.
This build covers generating video and imagery with AI tools and getting them onto a site without wrecking your load times.
What you'll be able to do afterwards
- Generate usable hero video instead of stock footage
- Write prompts that produce consistent visual style
- Compress and format video for the web properly
- Add background video that doesn't hurt performance
- Know when generated media looks cheap, and avoid it
Before you start
- An AI media tool account
- A site you're willing to experiment on

Background video is a performance decision
A hero video is often the heaviest thing on a page. Cap it at a few seconds, compress hard, hold a poster image underneath, and never autoplay it on mobile.
