How to Make an AI Ad With Your Actor, Product and Brand

To make an AI ad, press Ad on the home screen, name the campaign, and send the Art Director a message about what you are promoting. Type @ to cast your actor, product and brand, and send that too. Pick a format, check the estimated price beside Render, and press it when the plan looks right.

If something goes wrong

Can I show the Art Director a photo or a video?
Yes. Press the paperclip by the message box to add photos and videos. The Art Director decides how to use each one and tells you. A video only sets the mood.
My actor is not in the list.
Only approved actors can be cast. Open the actor, check the photos and voice, and approve them first.
The frame says nobody is cast yet.
Type @, pick your actor or product, and send the message. They then show under In the frame.
My product photo shows a model.
That is fine. The model's head is covered before the photo is used, so their face does not carry over. Glasses, hats or earrings on that head are covered too, so add a photo of them on their own.
Is the Look here the same as a look in a video?
No. In an ad, Look is the photo style. In a storyboard, a look is a picture of your actor in a scene's outfit.
The render failed.
Credits for a failed render go back to your balance automatically. Try again, or change the brief first.
