The full story
A Vienna film director and DOP with only scraps of university coding started playing with Claude Code as a joke to replace reference tools they'd outgrown. It became HOLD MY FRAME, a library of about 370,000 frames from 2,800 curated commercials with tools to search, collect and present references to agencies and clients. Three collaborators joined, and the film analysis behind it runs on local AI on their own machines.
