What Video Generator Does
Video Generator focuses on the concept stage — the hook, message structure, visual style, and call-to-action. It produces video concepts that stay aligned with your brand voice and visual identity.
Start with the message goal and audience, then let the tool shape a video concept around those constraints.
Generate multiple hook variations to find the opening that grabs attention fastest.
Visual direction and tone stay consistent with your brand DNA and visual identity settings.
Each concept includes enough structure to hand off to a production team or refine in Video Producer.
How to Generate Video Concepts
Who is watching, and what should they do after? Be specific — "drive newsletter sign-ups from founders" is better than "get more engagement."
Describe the opening hook (question, bold claim, visual surprise) and the core message you want to convey. The first 3 seconds determine whether viewers stay.
Specify the video format (vertical Reels, square social, horizontal YouTube) and visual treatment (motion graphics, live-action direction, mixed media).
Review multiple concept variations. Test different hooks and message angles. Pick the strongest concept and either hand it off for production or refine it in Video Producer.
Best Practices
- Focus on one message per video — short-form content works best with a single clear takeaway.
- Generate 3–5 hook variations before committing to a direction. The hook is the most important element.
- Keep visual style aligned with your broader brand identity to build recognition across platforms.
- Include a specific call-to-action that matches your campaign goal.
Use Video Generator for the concept and hook stage, then move to Video Producer when you need a full script, scene breakdown, and production timeline. The two tools are designed to work as a sequence — ideation first, then production planning.
