These are Katechon's own productions, not client work. Every film was planned, referenced, storyboarded and rendered in Katechon Arc; some editing, scoring and upscaling happened outside it, and each page says where. All use ByteDance Seedance 2.0 models; see the models page and the AI video price index for what they cost, and what an AI short drama costs for our measured spend per finished minute.
