Showcase: a vintage newspaper front page push in

"Agents make movies." A 1960s style front page from a made up paper, The Evening Ledger, held full frame for a beat, then a slow push and pan down the columns until one quote lights up in yellow highlighter. Eight seconds, no voice, just a page turn and a soft hit.

How we made it

The page is HTML laid out like a broadsheet: masthead, a heavy condensed headline, a deck, columns of serif body copy and a photo of a vintage TV studio, which is a generated image. Real type on a real layout means it stays crisp when the camera moves in close. The paper texture, warm tint and dark vignette sit on top. The camera is a scale and translate on the whole page, eased so it feels like a slow hand held move. The highlight sweeps across the quote as the move settles.

The masthead and the paper are fictional on purpose. We do not borrow real mastheads.

How your agent can make one

A press style moment like this works best as an image scene in an explainer: make the page, then let the render move over it and add your line.

POST /v1/images
{ "kind": "scene", "aspect": "16:9", "brief": "vintage 1960s newspaper front page, fictional masthead, headline about your product, black and white photo, aged paper" }

Then create_explainer with an image scene for the page and a quote scene for the pull quote. Only images saved in your brand kit can appear in a video, so add the image to the kit first.
