-   Product-first video, image and presenter tools
-   A credit quote before you generate
-   One asset library for the whole set

A practical workflow to turn a product image into a short video direction. It runs on the same studio, credit balance and asset library as every other tool in the workspace.

02 / HOW IT WORKS

## How the workflow runs

1.  01
    
    ### Add a product reference or write the brief
    
    Upload a product image or reference frame. Add the audience, offer and the moment the video should show.
    
2.  02
    
    ### Pick a format and model
    
    Choose the aspect ratio, duration and quality. The studio shows the credit cost for that exact setup before you submit.
    
3.  03
    
    ### Generate, review and refine
    
    Review each output against the brief, keep the strongest direction and make the next variation from the same project.
    

03 / WHAT YOU CAN DO

## Built around the product, not a generic template

01 / PRODUCT FIRST

### Keep the item recognizable while the scene moves

Start from a product photo, a reference frame or a clear brief. Image to video generator keeps the offered item as the anchor while the model adds motion, light and camera direction. The goal is a usable draft that still looks like the product you sell.

Problem → solution

02 / HOOK & PACING

### Give the first two seconds a job

Describe the opening beat, the one benefit to land and the action you want. short product video ads work when the hook, product moment and ending are planned together. The studio turns that direction into a prompt you can iterate on, not a one-off roll of the dice. Brief to test: turn a product image into a short video direction.

03 / ITERATION

### Change one variable at a time

Duplicate the brief and swap the hook, presenter, scene or call to action. performance marketers and ecommerce teams can compare directions in the same workspace and carry the strongest treatment into the next test instead of restarting from zero.

04 / START FROM AN EXAMPLE

## Start from a visual direction

Open any frame with its prompt in the studio, replace the product and keep the structure.
