# Video Studio

Video Studio makes UGC-style product videos starring Glif's AI creators. Add your product, pick a creator and a brief, approve the plan, and get a vertical video ready for TikTok, Reels and Stories. No camera, studio or creator contract needed.

## Good for

* Paid social ads in a native, creator-style format
* Testing different creators, briefs and hooks for the same product
* Producing a steady stream of social content around a launch

## Make a video

1. **Add product photos (optional).** Up to three. Clean shots on a plain background work best.
2. **Pick a creator** from the cast of [Characters](https://docs.glif.app/characters.md).
3. **Choose a brief:** Unboxing, Talking to camera, Get ready with me, or Honest review. Add your own description of the scene, key message or hook.
4. **Choose a model and length.** Length runs from 5 to 30 seconds (15 by default).
5. **Approve the plan.** Glif plans the shot and shows it to you before anything renders.
6. **Get your video.** The result is a vertical 9:16 video.

## Choose a model

| Model | Best for | Cost per take |
| - | - | - |
| Seedance 2.5 | Best faces and motion. Renders a quick 480p take you can upscale. | \~208 credits |
| Hailuo H3 Max | Cheaper drafts at 768p, up to 15 seconds | \~162 credits |

## Test at scale

* Run the same product and brief with several creators to compare performance.
* Keep the creator the same and change one thing, like the hook or brief type, for a clean test.
* Draft every version, then upscale only the winners.

## Use it responsibly

AI creators are fictional. Don't present their videos as reviews or testimonials from real customers, and check AI-content disclosure rules for the platforms and countries where the ads run. See [Characters](https://docs.glif.app/characters.md).

### Equivalent request via MCP

The studio is a web-app interface. The same result can be requested with `compose_project`:

```json theme={null}
{
  "name": "compose_project",
  "arguments": {
    "prompt": "UGC-style 15-second 9:16 'honest review' video. Creator: Glif character Amara Okafor talking to camera about this moisturizer in a bright bathroom. Hook in the first 2 seconds: 'I almost didn't try this.' Seedance 2.5, draft at 480p.",
    "asset_ids": ["img_PRODUCTXXXXXXXXXXXXXX"]
  }
}
```

* Over MCP there's no plan-approval step. Confirm creator, brief, length, model and number of versions with the user first.
* For creator tests, request all versions in one call so they share one project.
* Don't frame AI-creator output as real customer testimonials.
