Packshot on white, then image-to-video
Lock a white packshot still first. Image-to-video inherits that plate, ratio, and label. Do not invent the SKU in the clip.

Seedream 5 Pro for text on pack
Open Seedream 5 Pro at 6 credits when pack copy, a flavor line, or GTIN-ish type must read. A Flux carton is a hope row, not a typesetter.

A testimonial ad is not a review
A testimonial ad is paid, scripted, and disclosed. A review is unprompted. Mixing them is a fake-endorsement problem.

UGC B-roll under a voice, not a face
Faceless UGC is B-roll under a voice. A generated face is still a talking head, not a faceless cut.

UGC fatigue is the opening, not the SKU
Creative fatigue is the opening wearing out, not the SKU. Swap the first three seconds before you swap the product.

UGC for apps is a screen recording
A store listing is a shopper already in the product. A feed ad is an interruption. Both need a real screen, never a generated UI.

UGC for DTC is variants, not a hero
DTC UGC is a pack of variants for paid social, not one hero film. The auction buys openings, not a brand spot.

UGC for education is the lesson clip
Education UGC is a lesson clip: a screen, a step, an adult learner. It is not a fake classroom of children.

Finance UGC cannot invent a client. Use real, consented proof or faceless process. Disclose paid and synthetic.

UGC for fitness is form, not a gym ad
Fitness UGC is a form check in the room you train in. A gym montage with a logo sting is a brand film.

The first line should name the objection the buyer already has. A clever opener that could fit any SKU is not it.

Unboxing is hands, not a studio
Unboxing is hands on the pack in ordinary light. A studio table, a slate, and a slow-mo lid are a commercial.
