Three-second hook video
Machine input example (English)
Produce a 9:16 short-video brief: shot 1 grabs attention with a pain/contrast/outcome hook in the first three seconds, then three visual beats, short captions changing every 1-2 seconds, clear closing CTA.
Why it works: The first three seconds decide whether viewers swipe away — leading with the hook before the beats aligns with how TikTok/Reels reward completion.

UGC testimonial short
Machine input example (English)
Create an authentic UGC testimonial short brief: creator POV, conversational, real usage demo, believable before/after, reducing hesitation, avoiding over-polish and fake-review energy.
Why it works: A conversational, real-person testimonial reads as more trustworthy than a polished ad — dialing down the “ad feel” is exactly why UGC converts.

Product launch teaser
Machine input example (English)
Produce a 9:16 product launch teaser brief: open with intrigue revealing the core benefit, quick-cut three product hero shots, build pacing from slow to fast, close on the launch date and a pre-save CTA.
Why it works: Intrigue plus a slow-to-fast build creates anticipation, turning the launch date into an action users opt in for.

Unboxing & review short
Machine input example (English)
Create an unboxing & review brief: first-person unboxing close-ups, material and craftsmanship detail shots, a genuine in-use moment, one honest verdict — building instant “worth buying” conviction.
Why it works: Unboxing close-ups let viewers feel the reveal vicariously while detail shots make quality visible, pushing the purchase decision.

How-to tutorial short
Machine input example (English)
Produce a how-to tutorial brief: open with a one-line promise of what viewers will learn, demonstrate in three clear steps, add short on-screen captions and key-frame close-ups per step, close with a save-and-follow prompt.
Why it works: A clear “what you’ll learn” promise lifts completion, while the step structure and save prompt drive long-tail rewatches and follows.

Flash-sale countdown
Machine input example (English)
Create a flash-sale brief: high-energy open stating the discount, an on-screen countdown throughout for urgency, quick-cut product benefits, and a strong closing CTA with the deadline.
Why it works: A countdown running throughout visualizes scarcity and urgency — the classic structure that lifts immediate conversions on sale videos.
