Signal Delay.
Five months of mission logs.
The opening minute of a 6 min 55 s documentary on Voyager 1, told by one narrator and rendered with Kleo’s realistic look. The site shows 0:00–1:02, up to the title; the full film is not published here.
The film.
A documentary told as five months of mission logs. On November 14, 2023, Voyager 1 started repeating one pattern of ones and zeros, and every question cost forty-five hours of light-time. One narrator walks through the readout, the dead chip and the code moved by hand in 1970s assembly.
The opening 0:00–1:02 of Signal Delay, up to the title. Muted on the site and playing by itself while it is in view; the subtitles are part of the film.
What sits on the frame was decided by this film’s treatment: photographic stills with a slow push-in, hand-drawn amber diagrams, terminal windows, dates on black, two clocks in the corner, 35 mm grain, a 2.39:1 frame, a quiet music bed and subtitles. They are choices made for this documentary, not a standard part of every Kleo film. The standard film has one narrator and nothing else: no background music, no captions and no on-screen text.

What it shows.
A narrated documentary opening: one voice carrying the story from the first log entry to the title, over a frame built for this film. Kleo makes a narrated film in two looks, realistic and animation, and an animatic of the same storyboard; this is a film in the realistic look.
One narrator
A single voice walks through the readout, the dead chip and the code moved by hand in 1970s assembly. Every Kleo film has one narrator, in English or Italian.
A frame decided by the treatment
The dates on black, the amber diagrams, the terminal windows, the two clocks and the subtitles were asked for by this documentary’s treatment. The standard Kleo film puts nothing on the frame: no background music, no captions, no on-screen text.
4K 60 fps master, shown at 1080p
The master is 4K at 60 frames per second. The copy on this page is 1080p at 60 fps, muted, and it plays only while it is in view.
At 6 min 55 s the full documentary runs longer than the films Kleo makes for you through your assistant, which go from 15 seconds to 5 minutes; the look, the single narrator and the 4K 60 fps master are the same.
Make your own.
Connect Kleo to the assistant you already use and ask for a narrated film: the subject, the length, the format and the look, realistic or animation. Kleo asks for whatever is missing, returns the treatment, then states the exact credits before the render starts; nothing is charged until the job is accepted. The finished MP4 arrives as a link that stays good for 7 days.
“Use Kleo to make a 2-minute narrated film about the day Voyager 1 started repeating one pattern of ones and zeros. Realistic look, English narration, 16:9. Show me the treatment and the credit cost before starting the render.”
A 2-minute film is 60 credits, and a film is made only for accounts that have bought a pack; a 60-second animatic of the same storyboard is 5 credits, for every account. The animation look, a 2D animated film on the same workflow, costs the same per second; its sample is the octopus Short.
