The look

What Shadow Puppet looks like.

A traditional shadow theatre. The whole picture is a lit cloth screen, and everything on it is dark cut leather held against it on rods.

How the agent builds it

The agent cuts every figure as a silhouette with punched holes where the lamp glows through. Limbs hang on rivets and swing in held steps, puppets travel along their rods with a slight tremor, and the warm glow breathes with the lamp. There are no colours beyond lamp orange and shadow.

Your prompt decides the subject and the story; the style fixes the rest. The agent renders stills, compares them with the style's rules and fixes what is off before it renders the whole video. Nothing here is stock footage or diffusion output: every frame is drawn by the code the agent wrote, as a 2D canvas scene.

Good for

  • folk tales and myths
  • journeys and travel
  • culture, history and heritage
  • stories told in silhouette

Price

What a video costs.

Every style costs the same. The price depends on length and quality tier, and you see it before you submit. Plans start at $19 a month.

Standard is on every plan. Pro, which gives the agent more review passes, is on Creator and Studio. Videos up to 20 s are on Starter; longer ones need Creator.
