Source still

Living room source still used for all engines

Real photo from the Brighton set. Every engine below was asked for a slow forward gimbal glide — nothing in the room moves, photoreal, daylight. Early frames should hold; late frames are where geometry and invent show up.

Free-first verdict (draft)

Full films: Grok Imagine assembled all 9 clips for $0 (65.6s · 20.33 MB · 1080p). Veo 3.1 Fast assembled 8 clips for $7.20 (58.4s · 18.24 MB · 1080p) — kidsroom failed and was skipped. Living-room 8s lane: Grok remains the free full-8s option; WaveSpeed at $0.08 is the cheapest paid full 8s in this pass; LTX cheapest per clip ($0.02) but ~5s. Watch both full films above — no Design-eye quality call asserted on the assembled films here.
