Ketchup: Vidu the squeeze; overlay the word; hot-sauce already spent
Diegetic squeeze on the labeled bottle. The word ketchup is overlay. Hot-sauce already spent drip ASMR plus heat type.
Diegetic squeeze on the labeled bottle. The word ketchup is overlay. Hot-sauce already spent drip ASMR plus heat type.
A ketchup ad that ships is a bottle you already photographed, label in frame, a slow squeeze onto a plate or a fry. That sound belongs to the motion. The word ketchup — the cultivar, the “no high-fructose” line, a SKU legal will actually print — does not. A video model that is good at viscous red will still invent a cousin sauce or a second label. Lock the still. Buy the squeeze. Letter the word somewhere you can edit.
Hot-sauce already spent the drip-ASMR plus heat-word recipe. Do not restage that bottle as ketchup. This page is tomato, labeled glass or plastic, squeeze physics.
The labeled bottle is the squeeze plate
The SKU is the glass or the squeeze bottle, the printed mark, the fill line you actually fill. Photograph that. Crop to the neck if the bead is the hook; crop to the full bottle if the mark has to stay readable. Light it so the squeeze reads. Stop rewriting the bottle in prose.
Image-to-video is the launcher. Prompt travel: a single squeeze, ketchup already at the lip, camera locked, no new label. Re-describing the tomato is how the model draws a cousin sauce.
Text-to-video has no plate. “Artisan ketchup squeezing in slow motion, no HFCS” is a bottle and a claim the model invented. You cannot ship a lockup the label does not carry. Get the photo. Then animate. If the snap includes a hand you did not clear, crop to glass.
The buyer is matching the bottle they will pick up. Fine print is the first thing a generator loses. Zoom to 100% on the pack shot before you keep a take.
Vidu owns the squeeze, not the word
Vidu Q3 Image to Video is the diegetic row: still in, clip out, native audio on, 1080p ceiling, durations 5s / 10s / 15s only, 16 credits listed and discounted. Image required. There is no 6s, no 8s, no 2s test. Write the squeeze to five. Ten is a longer squeeze. Fifteen is a pour that actually lasts fifteen seconds, not a way to “make it more ASMR.”
Audio is true. A silent brief still gets a soundtrack — that is the point of a squeeze onto a plate. Prompt the mix: a single viscous bead, quiet room, no voice. Quoted “ketchup” does not become a readable title.
Iterate at 5s. A discounted 15-second miss is still a drifting label with a soundtrack. Qualities include 360p through 1080p; the ceiling is 1080p, not 4K. Vidu will not find your bottle in a paragraph. If you only have a sentence, lock a still first. Cultivar, “organic,” and a retailer SKU belong off the generate. Overlay them after lock. Do not morph the label mid-clip. If the still is plastic, the clip may not grow glass.
Overlay the word ketchup
The word is a claim. It has to match the label, the listing, and whatever a regulator would read. Do not ask a squeeze to mint it.
If the bottle still is already approved, skip a second image generate. Add a text overlay burns one authored line for the whole clip — top, center, or bottom. That is “ketchup,” a SKU, a shop handle. It does not transcribe. Glyphs inside the pour are uneditable. A wrong cultivar is a legal file.
One string, whole duration. If you needed the word at 0s and a CTA at 3s, that is timed overlays, not this job. If nobody said “ketchup” out loud, it is not a caption. Captions transcribe speech. Overlay is the word.
Do not ask Vidu to “include ketchup on screen.” Scene models sometimes paint illegible numerals across the glass. Type is a finishing tool. Crop to the ratio you will ship before you overlay. Top / center / bottom sit in a different safe zone after a 9:16 reframe.
Muted autoplay still needs the word on the file if the photographed label is cropped out. Overlay does that. Type you wrote. Not glyphs in the generate.
Hot-sauce already spent drip ASMR plus heat type
Hot sauce: drip ASMR is Vidu; the heat word is a still already owns cap-off drip and Scoville copy. That is wax, pepper, SHU. This page is ketchup: labeled bottle, squeeze, overlay the condiment word. Do not rewrite the heat post as a tomato. Do not import a Scoville into a ketchup brief because both are “sauce ASMR.”
/for/ecommerce-brands is UGC-style conversion: first three seconds, review energy, hook tests. That page is a storefront problem. A ketchup SKU still is a glass-and-label problem. Do not rewrite the ecommerce playbook into a squeeze.
A talking reviewer holding the bottle is a different file and a different grant. The squeeze does not have to talk. New SKU means a new bottle still, then the same 5s squeeze recipe. Do not prompt Vidu to “make it ketchup instead of hot sauce” off the heat still. That is a morph, not a listing.
FAQ
Can I prompt Vidu to letter ketchup during the squeeze?
No. Vidu Q3 I2V is 5 / 10 / 15 seconds, 1080p, native audio, 16 credits discounted. It will animate the still. It will not typeset a claim you can defend. Overlay the word after lock.
Why start at 5s instead of 15s for squeeze ASMR?
Five seconds is the shortest duration on this slug. There is no cheaper 3s retry. Fifteen seconds is a longer miss with a soundtrack. Confirm the bead at 5s. Lengthen only if the squeeze actually lasts.
Is this the same as the hot-sauce drip post?
No. That post is cap-off drip plus a heat word. This job is diegetic squeeze from a locked ketchup still, plus authored condiment copy. Do not restage the wax bottle. Do not import Scoville.
Will Vidu invent a different bottle if I only write a sentence?
Yes, because that would be the wrong family. Q3 image-to-video requires an image. A paragraph about artisan tomato is a cousin sauce. Photograph the SKU, then buy the squeeze.
