| **DARKFRAME — Lost Footage v1** *(preview)* | [Model card](https://huggingface.co/darkframeai/DARKFRAME-LostFootage-v1) · Early-access checkpoint for night-vision cast, VHS glitches, grain, and claustrophobic “discovered recording” stills. Apache-2.0. |

<p class="hf-muted">Preview weights may change—see the model card for the full disclaimer. Prompting notes, gallery, and file layout live on each model page.</p>

### For filmmakers & prompt engineers

We optimize for **genre-native** output: handheld framing, wrong lighting on purpose, chromatic bleed, and locations that feel like **evidence**—not hero shots.

<p class="hf-muted">New checkpoints and datasets land here first. Watch this org for releases.</p>
