An AI presenter moves from a snowy plateau into a studio rising from the snow. A finger snap brings the studio to life.
Independent promotional film.
How it was made
- Model: Wan 3.0 reference-to-video on fal, one unbroken 30-second take at 1920 × 1080 and 30 fps, with sound.
- Inputs: three pictures, a close-up of the face, a three-view character sheet and the studio, plus one prompt written shot by shot with timings.
- Cost: $6.00 for the accepted take. A Kling 4.0 take on an earlier prompt cost $7.05 and was rejected. The full breakdown is in the cost guide.
- Voice: the generated speech was converted to a custom ElevenLabs voice with the word timing unchanged, then placed in open air, a room and a close microphone as he moves.
- Edit: this version starts at the finger snap and runs 23.6 seconds, with English captions.
