Fit
When to reach for AI video generation
Good for
Staged product scenes — the product being used, poured, opened, worn.
Testing narrative structure before committing production budget.
B-roll and establishing shots that would otherwise need a location.
Multi-shot concepts where the sequence itself is what you are testing.
Not the right tool for
A recurring presenter who must be the same person in every ad — every generation invents the subject anew.
Legible on-pack text or logos, which most video models render poorly.
Exact reproduction of your packaging from a text description alone.
Supply a start frame rather than describing composition in prose. A reference image pins the opening far more reliably than any wording, and it is the only dependable way to keep specific packaging recognisable.
