Real piece produced with CLAQON # Period vlog: the first scanned purchase, 1974 An English vertical short in the “Period vlog (POV)” style: a fictional 1974 shopper tells the camera, vlog-style, about the first purchase ever read by a supermarket scanner. - **Production**: CLAQON - **Scene**: AI Characters style - **Format**: 9:16 - **Duration**: 0:23 - **Language**: English - **Real cost**: 1.26 USD - **Date**: 21 October 2026 Capabilities shown - [AI images (Off by default)](https://claqon.com/en/features/voice-and-visuals/) - [Talking AI character (Beta)](https://claqon.com/en/features/ai-characters/) - [AI Characters styles (Beta)](https://claqon.com/en/features/ai-characters/) - [Realistic style with a badge (Beta)](https://claqon.com/en/features/ai-characters/) - [ElevenLabs voice (Off by default)](https://claqon.com/en/features/voice-and-visuals/) - [Animated scenes (Beta)](https://claqon.com/en/features/animated-scenes/) - [Captions that follow the voice](https://claqon.com/en/features/captions-and-clips/) - [Sourced facts](https://claqon.com/en/features/source-verification/) - [Vertical 9:16](https://claqon.com/en/features/multi-platform-publishing/) What it shows: the “Period vlog (POV)” style, an anonymous character from another era who talks to the camera like a vlogger. Each frame was requested the way the factory requests it in this style, with the character’s reference sheet so they look the same in every shot. The character talks to the camera with synced lips, as the style requires, with one detail shot in between. Because it looks real, it carries the “AI recreation” badge in the header for the whole video. It opens with the notice that it is a dramatization based on documented facts. The date, the place, the laser and the pack of gum come from the scanner’s record at the Smithsonian; the shopper is fictional and no real person appears or speaks. How it was made ## Production sheet Everything you hear and see in this piece is cleared for commercial use. This is how the factory engine produced it. - **Scenes**: 5 code-animated scenes over the video, with titles and captions that follow the voice.

On your account, your AI model writes the script from sources and it passes the HARD QC before anything is spent on voice, images or video. 1. **Official source** The scanner’s record at the Smithsonian, cited at the end of the video and in the sheet. 2. **One sheet per character** Each fictional character has an AI-generated reference sheet, and every shot receives it so the character stays the same from start to finish. 3. **Talking to the camera** The style always uses lip sync: the character talks to the camera with lips synced to their voice. 4. **Cost on record** Every image and every second of lip sync is recorded with its real cost: the sheet breaks it down.
