Prompt

Make a [LENGTH IN SECONDS]-second 9:16 ad for [YOUR PRODUCT]. Brand: [BRAND COLORS].

- 0 to 2 s: "[HOOK LINE]" slams in over the product clip (or the best photo).
- 2 to 6 s: the product cut out from my photo, floating in the middle on the brand background, slowly turning toward the camera (a small scale and tilt), with a counter rolling up to "[THE STAT]".
- 6 to 10 s: three benefits that tick in one by one as a checklist: [THREE BENEFITS].
- 10 s to the end: a price tag swings in with "[PRICE]" and the text "[CALL TO ACTION]".
Adapt the counter, checklist and price tag recipes from assets. A pop on each tick and a coin sound on the price tag. Upbeat [MUSIC]. Show me the timeline first.

The blanks

[LENGTH IN SECONDS]
How long the finished video runs, as a number of seconds. Reels and Shorts hold best between 15 and 60.
[YOUR PRODUCT]
The product's name and what it does in one line, for example "Lumen, a budgeting app for freelancers".
[BRAND COLORS]
Your colors as hex codes with their roles, for example "background #0B0B0A, accent #FFD23F".
[HOOK LINE]
The first words on screen, the reason to keep watching, in under ten words.
[THE STAT]
One number that proves it, with its label, for example "12,480 orders shipped".
[THREE BENEFITS]
Three short benefits, three or four words each.
[PRICE]
The price as it should read, for example "$29" or "From $9/month".
[CALL TO ACTION]
What the viewer should do at the end, in the words to show, for example "Try it free at lumen.app".
[MUSIC]
A track you uploaded (say its file name), or a mood and genre for the stock music search, like "upbeat lo-fi" or "cinematic, builds slowly".

Tips

  • A photo with the product clearly in the middle cuts out best. Your AI can point at the product if it isn't centered.
  • Use a real number for the stat. If you don't have one, swap the counter for a quote from a customer.

UGC Ad With Three Hook Versions

A UGC-style ad, then two more versions that change only the hook.

Upload: Your creator clips (talking to camera) and a few product shots.

Make a [LENGTH IN SECONDS]-second 9:16 UGC ad for [YOUR PRODUCT] from my clips, for [AUDIENCE]. Inspect them with a transcript.

Structure: hook (first 2 s), the problem, the product in use (cut to the product shots), the result, the offer "[OFFER]", then "[CALL TO ACTION]" as a text in the last 3 seconds.
- Hook for v1: "[HOOK LINE]" as the first line said and as a big text at the top.
- Jump cuts on the speech, no silences. Punch-ins on the benefit words.
- Captions: pop preset, highlight [CAPTION COLOR]. Clean the voice.
- [LOOK] look, natural skin. Light [MUSIC] ducked under the voice.
Show me the timeline before you render. After v1, make v2 and v3 of the same video with these hooks, changing nothing else: "[HOOK 2]" and "[HOOK 3]".
