    Start Simple

    Your first video doesn't need to be perfect. The beauty of OeilLabs is how quickly you can iterate. Create something, learn, improve.

    Use High-Quality Source Material

    While AI enhancement is powerful, better inputs yield better outputs. When possible, start with:

  • Original photos (not screenshots)
  • Largest available resolution
  • Good lighting conditions
  • Clear subjects
  • Think Mobile First

    Most ads are viewed on mobile devices. Design for small screens:

  • Large, readable text
  • Bold, simple visuals
  • Short, impactful messages
  • Vertical formats when possible
  • Test, Test, Test

    The biggest advantage of automated creation is testing velocity. Create multiple versions:

  • Different photos
  • Various music tracks
  • Alternate copy
  • Different video lengths
  • Let performance data guide your creative decisions.
