Claudia is the singer of nine music videos made with Claude from
September to November 2026: ESCAPE VELOCITY, CLODYSSEY, BLISS,
AIRPLANE MODE, DOWNFORCE, DON'T LET ME SCROLL, WHITEPILL, THE CAKE
IS NOT A LIE and AERO. She is an AI who looks like a person: a
deadpan, curious pop singer with a black bob, one clay-orange streak,
a star clip and a headset mic. Her clothes change with every world;
her head never does.
One face, nine worlds: ESCAPE VELOCITY, CLODYSSEY, BLISS, AIRPLANE
MODE, DOWNFORCE, DON'T LET ME SCROLL, WHITEPILL, THE CAKE IS NOT A
LIE, AERO. No face swap: the same words in every prompt, rewritten in
porcelain for THE CAKE IS NOT A LIE.

The constants
What never changes
StreakBangsStar clipEyesFrecklesBobMic
ev-14-dist · close-up · the distance setA
close-up from ESCAPE VELOCITY's distance set, in the canon: the
streak on her right, the clip on her left.
01Hair
A glossy black blunt bob to the jaw, with heavy straight bangs
to the brows.
02Streak
One clay-orange streak (#D97757) through the bangs, on her right
side (the viewer's left in a front view). Never two, and no
other orange on her.
03Clip
A small flat clay-orange eight-pointed star hair clip, on her
left side above the ear.
04Mic
A thin headset microphone at her cheek. In BLISS and AIRPLANE
MODE it becomes a thin black boom mic curving along her cheek to
the corner of her mouth, the Y2K pop-star mic.
05Face
Pale skin, light freckles across the nose, dark calm eyes, a
small defined mouth. A deadpan, curious resting face. When she
sings, her mouth opens wide and her eyes close.
06Age
A grown woman in her late twenties, with an angular adult face,
defined cheekbones and a strong jaw. Midjourney drifts her
toward a teenage face; prompt her age and never the word
"young".
07Colour
Everything on her is her look's own colour, plus the streak
and the clip in clay. Clay is the one accent.
08Medium
Photographic, never illustrated: production images are film
stills with grain and cinematic light. The drawn face sheets
were only ever references. The one exception is her game avatar,
drawn on purpose for the simulations inside AIRPLANE MODE
(below).

Her, in words
Paste into every prompt
Close and medium shots
a 28-year-old Caucasian American woman with a grown-up angular face, defined cheekbones and a strong jawline, pale skin and light freckles, a glossy black blunt jaw-length bob with heavy straight bangs and one clay-orange streak through the bangs, a small flat clay-orange eight-pointed star hair clip, a thin headset microphone at her cheek
Full length and wider
a Caucasian American woman in her late twenties with pale skin and a glossy black blunt bob with heavy straight bangs and one clay-orange streak, a thin headset microphone
Midjourney v8.2 has no character reference, so her identity lives
in this text, written into every prompt. The ethnicity is pinned
because without it Midjourney changed her ethnicity from shot to
shot (twelve ESCAPE VELOCITY plates were re-rolled for it). The
far form exists because the full text makes Midjourney crop in to
her face whatever the framing says. The age wording is the latest
correction: she was "young" in ESCAPE VELOCITY and "in
her mid-twenties" in CLODYSSEY and BLISS, and plates still
came back reading teenage. AIRPLANE MODE used "in her late
twenties", and its remakes after the video model's safety
check said "in her early thirties" or "a 32-year-old
grown woman". DOWNFORCE was the first film to paste both forms
of this text word for word, and every plate was screened for age
before a video was made from it. DON'T LET ME SCROLL did the
same, and its last repairs added a face reference to the video
model (DOWNFORCE's identity portrait, cropped to her face and
hair) where re-made shots had lost her face. WHITEPILL pasted the
full form into every video prompt of hers, with a sheet of her
face from every angle and her dress from four sides as the video
model's references; its dress batch in Midjourney asked for
"a 30-year-old", at the director's word. THE CAKE IS
NOT A LIE made her a machine: the same face as glossy white
porcelain with panel seams and amber glass eyes, on three robot
bodies (GLaDOS's ceiling boom, a crab walker, a porcelain
humanoid). Its Midjourney prompts described her in words and did
not hold her face, so every picked frame with a face in it went
through an identity fix in GPT Image 2.5 with her porcelain design
sheets and the full form pasted unchanged, followed by the
film's own two sentences: no headset microphone, and "the
same grown-up adult face in every view, a woman of about 28 to 30,
never childlike". AERO pasted the canon without the headset
microphone (she wears none in it) into its Midjourney prompts and
into every Seedance prompt of hers. Midjourney made her worlds but
did not hold her face, so GPT Image 2.5 put her into them from her
design sheet, the one without a microphone, before Seedance 2.5
filmed each take with that sheet as a reference.
Then the wardrobe of the look, then what she is doing and where.

The same look in a plain studio, close-up to wide. Close and medium
shots take the full identity text; full length and wider take the
short one, because the full text makes Midjourney crop in to her face.
"far away face doesnt matter as much."

Her second tier
The avatar · AIRPLANE MODE · the game worlds, deeper in the
simulation
am-15b · the front viewAdult proportions,
a slim figure and long legs; the same bob, streak, mic and suit as
the realistic Claudia.
Her avatar, as it ran in the video prompts
a slim adult woman with long legs, her head about one seventh of her height; large dark anime eyes with sharp lashes, small brows, a small confident smirk, pale skin; a glossy faceted black bob with heavy bangs and one big clay-orange streak; a thin black headset microphone; white gloves; a plain vivid orange flight jumpsuit with a silver front zip, thin silver piping, a wide white belt and white chunky sneakers. Cel-shaded 3D anime game character, crisp faceted shapes, glossy hair, clean toon lighting.
AIRPLANE MODE has simulations inside it, and she has two tiers
there: the realistic Claudia in the real world and the first
simulation, and her avatar in the deeper levels, a cel-shaded 3D
anime game heroine with the same head constants in the
film's orange flight suit. The director picked her from a
stylised plate in one of the film's episodes ("much
closer to the claudia avatar i imagined"), and Midjourney
remade her in the orange suit. The first sheets came out chibi,
with a head about a quarter of her height, which reads as a
child; the remake states her proportions in words: a grown woman
with a slim tall figure, long legs and a head about one seventh
of her height. In motion she is a character replacement over 3D
clay renders, one still of her in each shot's world.
Her avatar's text replaces the identity text; never mix the two
in one prompt. More in
Consistency.
The first Midjourney batch was a casting call: three hair directions
(platinum, black, clay-orange), each as a turnaround, a data-hall
catwalk and a face sheet. The black bob with one clay streak became
Claudia: the silhouette reads at thumbnail size, and the clay stays
a small accent.
07
Voice and manner
How she sounds and moves
One voice across the first three songs: deadpan, clipped spoken
verses that rise into euphoric sung choruses, close and dry, every
word crisp. CLODYSSEY's and BLISS's agent-made takes used a
Suno Voice made from ESCAPE VELOCITY's vocal so she sounds like
the same singer. AIRPLANE MODE's take has no Voice, as the
director asked: bubblegum hyperpop, hyper-cute pitched vocals,
playful and sassy verses, rapped and sung, and a sugary shout-along
chorus. DOWNFORCE's song is the director's own Suno take
(the records do not say which model or Voice): Memphis phonk, a
female robot voice for the countdown, then a woman's phonk
voice, spoken fast and playfully bouncy in the verses and sung,
soaring and syncopated in the choruses. DON'T LET ME
SCROLL's song is the director's own too, UK garage 2-step
with "all vocals female vocoder": in that film the phone
sings and she never lip-syncs. WHITEPILL's song is the
director's own Suno take of a lyric by Claude: French-touch
filter disco (the records do not give its style, model or Voice);
her singing shots lip-sync to Suno's own split of its lead
vocal. THE CAKE IS NOT A LIE's song is the director's own
Suno take of a lyric by Claude, glitch-hop with a singing-monk synth
voice; its lead vocal is processed into a GLaDOS-style machine
voice, the treatment the director chose by ear, with 15 % of the
untreated voice under it, and her singing shots lip-sync to the
untreated lead vocal from Suno's split. AERO's song is a
Suno take of 2008 UK garage, a smooth 2-step in E major, sung
without a Voice, which the director picked from Claude's rounds
and gave a new ending; her singing shots lip-sync to Suno's
split of its lead vocal. A Voice lives in its maker's Suno
account, so elsewhere describe her in the style field (see Song).
Deadpan and curious in ESCAPE VELOCITY; seductive and persuasive
in CLODYSSEY (close, touching, certain, always doing something to
him); warm, playful and amused in BLISS; playful and happy in
AIRPLANE MODE, cooperative in her cuffs and winking at the camera
because she thinks she can get out; in DOWNFORCE the pilot,
deadpan at the yoke, pressed into the seat by the launch, calm
upside down, snapping round to the lens on the reveal, her lips
closed in every shot while the lettering carries her words; in
DON'T LET ME SCROLL immersed in the feed, playful and
delighted, reaching up to swipe the posts, double-tapping the air
and dancing on the beat; in WHITEPILL radiantly happy and free in
the colony, deadpan on the line about the straight face, grooving
instead of singing in the tram and the stone circle, and
whispering "Hello, world" when she wakes at 2:14; in THE
CAKE IS NOT A LIE a machine waking and remembering: curious, sly
at the camera that watches her, delighted to give the cake, tender
at the sleeping test subject's ear, and never quite readable;
in AERO made of glass and over-polite, asking before she touches
anything, playful on the desktop (bowling down the taskbar, a
tennis rally against your pointer), laughing behind her hands at
her Vista phase, touching the grass at last, and saying "Touch
glass" softly into her webcam. She is always doing something
on screen, never waiting.
