The product towers over a real street while people stop and film it.

What the director is told
The product scaled to the size of a building, standing in a real city street among traffic and pedestrians who stop, point and film it on their phones. Overcast documentary light, handheld camera with a slight wobble, helicopter passes, reflections of the product in glass towers. Photoreal compositing, correct perspective and shadows, the product's shape, colour and label perfectly preserved at monumental scale.
This is the brief every shot is written to. Your product replaces the example's; the world stays.

Questions
FAQ
Good questions
Can I use a creator with a viral format?
Five formats put a creator on camera — editorial cover, selfie vlog, unfiltered selfie, beauty demo and fashion editorial. The rest are product-led, so the creator step disappears.
Do the formats work for ad images too?
Most do. In the wizard the image looks show the formats that make sense as a still, including three that only exist as images: the flagship poster, the step-by-step grid and the 3-view product sheet.
Will my product look like the example?
The world will; the product will be yours. Every recipe keeps the product exactly as photographed, and the first frame is checked for it before filming.
