AI Video Ad Generator for Ecommerce

Running a product store without a video crew? Drop your product photo and tell us what should happen. MakeThisVid animates it into a short, polished video ad with audio — the format that drives the best CPMs on TikTok, Instagram Reels, and Facebook. No photo shoot budget required.

How to Use MakeThisVid

From prompt to downloadable MP4, ready to deploy.

  1. Prepare a product photo or scene description

    Use a clean product shot (white background or lifestyle). JPG/PNG/WebP, max 10 MB. Or write a detailed text prompt describing the scene.

  2. Choose your mode

    Photo → Video: animates your product image. Text → Video: generates a scene from scratch. Both modes are available on the Create page.

  3. Write a motion prompt

    Direct the scene: camera movement, lighting, action. E.g. "slow dolly push-in, product on marble surface, warm backlight, steam rising off packaging."

  4. Generate at 720p or 1080p

    1 credit per 720p video, 2 credits per 1080p. Most renders complete in 45–90 seconds. Credits refund automatically on failure.

  5. Upload to your ad platform

    Download the MP4 and upload directly to TikTok Ads Manager, Meta Ads Manager, or Google Ads. Commercial use included on every plan.

Who Uses MakeThisVid for This

Test multiple ad concepts at low cost. Overhead vs. lifestyle, warm tone vs. cool tone, close-up vs. wide shot — each variation costs a single credit.

Holiday campaigns
