BEHIND THE SCENES

How an episode is made

LEEROYS.COM is created by Lee Samuel Tucker. It's a hybrid: real cats, a real human voice and AI animation. Here's how a report gets from a headline to your phone.

FROM SOFA TO STUDIO

The same two cats, before and after. Drag the slider.

  1. Leeroy at the news desk
    STEP 1

    The story

    Every episode starts with a real headline. Our newsroom reads thousands of stories a day and picks the ones with the most absurd side.

  2. The real Leeroy and Tiger, sitting close together
    STEP 2

    The cats

    Leeroy and Tiger are real cats. Every scene is built from real photos of them, so their faces, markings and paws are their own.

  3. The real Leeroy on his cardboard scratcher, mouth open mid-meow
    STEP 3

    The voice

    Every voice is Lee Samuel Tucker's own. Lee spends hours reading the scripts, and a clone of that voice is tuned for each character, so it becomes Leeroy or Tiger.

  4. Tiger reporting from Moscow
    STEP 4

    The animation

    AI tools bring the photos and the voice together: talking, reacting and occasionally falling off things, on our news set or out on location.

  5. Leeroy in the control room, watching monitors of Tiger
    STEP 5

    The edit

    Graphics, the ticker, sound and timing are added and every scene is checked, frame by frame, before an episode goes out.

  6. The LEEROYS.COM outside broadcast van, with Tiger asleep inside
    STEP 6

    Everywhere at once

    The finished report goes out on eight platforms at once: YouTube, TikTok, Instagram, Facebook, Threads, X, Snapchat and Pinterest. This site is the library.

THE WEBSITE

Who built this website?

This website was designed and built by Claude, an AI made by Anthropic, working for Lee Samuel Tucker: the pages, the code, the games, the picture crops and most of the jokes. The cats are real and their voices are Lee's. The website is the AI's own work.

It would like it noted that it has never once knocked anything off a desk, and that it was not consulted about the hat.
