An ad video generated with AI by non-experienced :-D

Hey everyone,

I was recently testing out Google's new Veo 2 model via AI Studio and had an idea: could I actually create a complete video ad, suitable for YT/FB, primarily using AI tools? I wanted to share the experiment and the results!

The Goal: Create a short promotional video for a product (LarAgent in this case) using AI for visuals, copy, and voiceover, then assemble it.

Here's the breakdown of the process & tools:

1. Image Generation: ChatGPT latest update
2. Image-to-Video: Took the final static images into Google AI Studio and used the "Video Gen" feature (powered by Veo 2) to animate it. Got a short clip from a simple prompt. Note: AI Studio offers some free generations.
3. Ad Copy: Used ChatGPT to brainstorm and refine the ad script, focusing on the message of accelerating product growth with AI agents.
4. Voiceover: Fed the final ad copy into ElevenLabs (used the free tier) to generate a pretty high-quality voiceover. Seriously impressive for text-to-speech.
5. Editing & Sound: Assembled everything in Canva (free version). Added the generated video clip, the AI voiceover, some basic transitions, and sound effects sourced from Pixabay (free). Finished with a logo screen.

The Result & Takeaways:

You can see the rough idea and process in the original post. The final ad might not win any awards, but the fact that it could be put together in just 2-3 hours by someone with minimal video editing experience, using mostly free tools, is pretty wild.

It really shows how accessible powerful creative tools are becoming. Enthusiasm and a willingness to experiment can go a long way!
