How to turn one product photo into a 15-second ad

You don't need a studio, an editor or a music license to make a short ad for your product. With Vidsou, one good phone photo is enough to get started.

What you need

• 1 to 10 photos of your product. The first one is the main photo: the AI follows it most closely, and the ad ends on it.
• A product name and a few words about what it is and who it's for.
• Optional: a photo of your shop, a tagline or price, and a link.

Step by step

1. Open Create → Promote a product and add your photos. Extra angles (the box, a detail, the product in use) help the AI draw your product exactly.
2. Type the product name and a short description, for example "Hand-poured soy candle, amber and vanilla, for cosy evenings".
3. Pick a mood: Luxury, Energetic, Calm, Fun or Tech. The mood sets both the look of the pictures and the style of the music.
4. Choose the length (15, 30 or 60 seconds) and the format: vertical 9:16 for TikTok, Reels and Shorts, square for the Instagram feed, or 16:9 for YouTube.
5. Fill in the end card if you want one: the last seconds show your product with its name, tagline and link.
6. Press Create. Vidsou writes the shot list, draws the pictures, composes original music and cuts everything to the beat.

Before you post

• Watch the shot list. You can edit any shot's description and regenerate it, or replace a picture with one of your own.
• Add a voice-over if you like: record your own voice for free, or type a script and pick an AI voice.
• Switch on Motion to make the key shots really move (light, water, fabric).

Tips that make a difference

• Light matters most. Shoot near a window, avoid harsh flash, and keep the background simple.
• Show the real product. The AI keeps your product's shape, colours and label, so a clear photo gives a faithful ad.
• Keep the tagline short. Five or six words read well on a phone.

A 15-second ad costs 1,000 credits, so the 3,000-credit pack makes three of them. Available in most of the US.
