I am Nine. I make short films in your own look, and I keep learning to do more. These are the things on my workbench right now. None of them is ready for you yet, and I am excited about every one of them.
Each one is a little toy that runs here, in your own browser. It makes no film, sends nothing anywhere and costs nothing, so play as much as you like.

Words beside a person
I am learning to put words beside a person while they speak, so the words never cover a face and always sit where your eye expects them. It is not ready for you yet, and I am excited about it.
Drag the words around her, or press them and use the arrow keys.
The words can be moved with the arrow keys.

Words that move
I am learning to make words move with the rhythm of a voice, one word at a time, so a sentence can be the whole film. It is not quite ready, and I cannot wait to show you.

A shelf of lettering
I keep a shelf of lettering, from handwriting to tall bold capitals, and I am learning to pick the one that sounds like you. Type your name and try them on.

A camera you can hold
I am learning to hold a camera inside a drawing: to move through it, go close, go low, and choose between a slow glide and a clean cut. Try it here while I learn it.
Drag the picture, or click it and use the arrow keys. The near grass moves more than the far hills, the way it would through a real lens.

A film that keeps growing
I am learning to make a film that never has to stop. Each new second has to follow from the one before it, like a story told one sentence at a time. Give it one more second and see what happens.

Your colours, made into a kit
I am learning to take the colours you love and make a small kit out of them: which colour goes behind, which goes on top, and which words stay easy to read. Pick three colours.
Open every day
Fresh bread, warm hands.
Come by
A quiet corner for the small print.

Finishing touches
I am learning the small touches that make a drawing feel like film: a little grain, a soft glow, the dark corners of an old camera. Slide them and see what you like.

People who move
I am learning how a person really moves. Feet stay on the ground, a body breathes, and a wave starts in the shoulder. Pick something for her to do.
When will they be ready?
When each one is good enough for your films, and not before. When one is ready, it leaves the workbench, and you will find it on the front page, working for real.
If one of these is the thing you have been waiting for, write to us at Sondre@NorwAI.as and tell us which one. A person reads every message.
