What is AncientCCTV?
AncientCCTV turns a preset combination and one line of text into a short AI video that looks like surveillance footage recorded in the past.
Where the Ancient CCTV style came fromWhat should I write in the event line?
Anything a fixed camera could watch happen: an argument, a cart breaking down, an animal escaping, a delivery arriving, a fire starting. One sentence, up to 200 characters, works best.
How long does a render take?
Most clips finish in 2–8 minutes depending on quality and queue. You can close the page; finished clips wait in My clips.
How do credits work?
Each 30-second 720p HD clip costs 10 credits. Credits are bought in one-time packs and never expire. Signing up does not include free credits. If a render fails, the credits are refunded automatically.
Can I put real people in a clip?
Clips are built from presets and text, not from photos, so nobody has to be identifiable. Do not write about real living people, do not involve anyone under 18, and do not ask for graphic violence such as executions or mutilation. War, fire and accidents are allowed as long as they stay inside those lines.
What the event line can and cannot containAre the clips labelled as AI?
Yes. Every clip plays with an AI label on the player and the share page states that it is AI-generated. Please keep that label and say the clip is AI when you post it: it is not real historical footage.
What happens to my clips?
Finished clips are kept until you delete them. The event text you wrote is stored with the clip and deleted automatically 7 days after the clip is created. Deleting your account removes everything right away.
