Your first ad, step by step
From a photo and two sentences to a finished 9:16 ad, with what to expect at every step and what it costs.
1. Pick a starting point
Studio offers three starts. Image to video: upload one or more product photos and type the facts. URL to video: paste the link of your product page; the name, description and photos are read from it for you to check. Translate: a video you already have, in other languages. For a first ad, Image to video with one clear photo is the simplest.
2. Fill in the product block
Product name, two or three factual sentences, and the length. The length chips show the price per length in dollars and credits; 30 seconds is preselected. Under Advanced you can add the product link, an Offer (the only way a deal gets into the call to action) and a Direction (who the ad is for, what to emphasise).
3. Presenter and voice
Standard is preselected and recommended; Premium moves more naturally and costs more per second. Pick a presenter from the portrait looks, then the language, accent and voice; the presenter's own voice is preselected when it fits. Speed changes the pace, not the word limit.
4. Script and style
Leave the script empty and one is written for you, or paste your own. Tick "Review script first" to read it before anything is paid: you pick one of three hooks and edit the words within the limit for your length. Brand style is optional: an accent colour that highlights the spoken caption word, a caption look, a font and a logo.
5. The summary and the button
The fixed summary repeats your choices and the estimate in credits and dollars. The button shows the same number. After a click you see one confirmation with length, quality and the amount; only then does anything start.
6. Follow the steps on the project page
Script, product clip, presenter and final edit each show Waiting, Processing, Completed or Failed. The product clip and the presenter run at the same time; the final edit starts when both are done. You can leave the page; the finished video lands on your dashboard. A failed step shows a plain-language reason and a Retry button that resumes at that step.
7. The result
The video is the first thing on the project page, with length, format, language, quality, time to ready and the real amount spent next to the estimate. Download it, or click Make another with the same choices.
