First-person POV
Shot from the viewer's own eyes: hands use the product in one take.
Rendered by ads.fan from one product photo — no filming, no studio. Your ad is built inside the same world; your product keeps its real shape and size.
The example
“Fourteen tools, this small?”
Rendered for Ridge Multi-Tool
5-second hook · 5 credits
What the director is told
First-person point of view, camera at eye level as if the viewer were wearing it: only their own hands enter the frame, reaching, opening, using the product in one continuous unbroken take through a real space. Slight head motion, natural available light, focus breathing as the hands move, ordinary background sound. Nobody else on camera.
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.
