1. Choose one message

Start with one clear idea: introduce a product, show a finished piece of work, or give people a look inside your business. A small set of related images is easier to understand than several unrelated subjects.

For a restaurant, focus on one signature dish. For a shop, choose one product and a useful detail. For a studio, select a finished piece and a wider view that gives it context.

2. Start with clear, honest photos

Use sharp images with even lighting and a visible subject. Avoid heavy filters, motion blur and distracting backgrounds. Check that product labels, artwork and other important details are easy to see.

Use photos you own or have permission to use. If a customer or team member appears, confirm that they agree to the intended use. Remove private information from the frame.

3. Pick a small, coherent set

Easy Ads accepts 1–4 photos. Choose images that belong together, such as an overall view, a detail and the product in its setting. You do not need to fill every slot.

Keep the main subject away from the very edge of the photo. A vertical composition can crop the sides of a wider image, so leave room around details that must remain visible.

4. Add branding when it helps

The Brand Kit is optional. Add your logo, brand colors and a short message if they help communicate the idea. You can also create a clean video from photos alone.

Keep the message specific and accurate. One short invitation, such as exploring a collection or visiting your studio, is easier to read than several competing offers.

5. Review the result before sharing

Play the whole video and compare it with your photos. Check text, product shape, artwork, people and colors. AI can change details; do not publish a result that misrepresents what you sell or create.

If you edit text, subtitles or music, save the changes and check the updated result before downloading. Then add the appropriate caption and contact details on the platform where you share it.

Turn a clear idea into your next video.

Choose 1–4 photos and start creating.
