Why marketing videos suits AI video

Marketing teams need many short clips and rarely have the time to shoot them. A sentence that names the subject, the light and the camera move can replace a day of stock-footage searching, and a voiceover can carry the offer.

How to describe the scene

  • Name one subject and one setting, such as a product in use or a place
  • Add the light and the mood: warm morning light, cool studio, golden hour
  • End with the camera move: slow push-in, orbit, pan or gentle float

An example you can adapt

Example sentence: A runner tying their shoes at sunrise on an empty city street, slow camera push-in.

Example voiceover: "Start where you are. Our new running range is here, built for early mornings." That script is 14 words, so the video falls in the "6–10 seconds" length and costs 2 credits in Full HD or 4 credits in 4K.

Sound and camera

  • Voiceover with one clear call to action, or Energetic music for an upbeat feel
  • Choose vertical 9:16 for social ads and horizontal 16:9 for a website hero
  • Full HD is enough for most posts; choose 4K for a large screen

Mistakes to avoid

  • Cramming several scenes into one sentence: each video is one scene
  • Describing a real product by name and expecting the exact item: use a photo for that
