Ready-made flow · A 16:9 promo with animated shots and a soundtrack

AI Promo Video Maker

Idyllic's AI promo video maker turns one line about your business, product or event into a finished 16:9 promo. The AI writer plans shots that hook, show and pay off, FLUX 3 makes the first frame of each, Veo 3.1 animates it, and an original ElevenLabs soundtrack runs underneath. You get one widescreen video for your site, YouTube or ads, plus a caption to post with it.

How to make it

Four steps, about a minute of your time. These are real screens from the run above.

  1. 01

    Say what you are promoting

    Describe the business, product or event in a line or two, pick a look (Cinematic, Product commercial, Energetic, Warm documentary, Luxury or Animated) and choose three or four shots.

  2. 02

    Let the flow direct it

    The AI writer plans the promo like a commercial director: a hook in the first shot, the best of it in the middle, a hero shot to end, plus a music brief and a caption. FLUX 3 makes each first frame, Veo 3.1 animates it with one smooth camera move, and ElevenLabs composes the score. Preview the plan free; the real run takes several minutes.

    Watch the cut

    The shots are cut into one 16:9 video with the music mixed underneath and faded out at the end. The first frame of every shot sits alongside it, with the caption.

Why it beats
a template

01

A finished promo, not a clip

Shots, soundtrack, edit and caption in one run. You get a video you can publish, not a folder of clips to assemble.

02

Planned like a commercial

Hook, show, pay off. Every shot gets one clear subject and one camera move, and the promo ends on a hero shot.

03

Original music, made for it

ElevenLabs composes a soundtrack for each promo to fit its mood, mixed under the cut and faded at the end. No stock track to hunt for.

04

Six looks

Cinematic, product commercial, energetic, warm documentary, luxury or animated. The look carries through every frame and shot.

05

Widescreen, where promos live

16:9 fills a YouTube player, a website header, a presentation slide and a landscape video ad.

06

Frames you can reuse

The first frame of every shot is a still you can download for a YouTube thumbnail, a poster or a post.

What makes a promo video work

  • Show the best thing first. People decide in the opening seconds whether to keep watching.
  • One idea per shot: the place, the product, the people, the result.
  • Make it work with the sound off. Browsers only autoplay muted video, and plenty of feeds start muted.
  • Add your logo, offer and end card in your video editor or ad tool. The cut comes without on-screen text.
  • Keep it tight. Three or four shots, about 18 to 24 seconds, carries a site header, a post or an ad.
  • Put the next step in the caption: book, visit, order, sign up.

Questions

Is the AI promo video maker free?

Previewing the flow is free: you see the AI writer's real plan for your shots, music and caption, with sample images. Making the video needs Pro ($17.50/mo, billed yearly) and costs 184 credits for three shots. The free plan also includes 3 free images a day in the image studio.

How long is the promo video?

Each shot runs about six seconds, so three shots make a promo of roughly 18 seconds and four shots about 24.

What size is a promo video?

Most promos are 16:9 widescreen, and 1920×1080 is the standard full-HD size for YouTube and websites. Idyllic makes every promo in 16:9, so it fills a YouTube player, a website header or a slide.

Does it have music or a voiceover?

ElevenLabs composes an original soundtrack for each promo, and it is mixed under the cut. This flow has no voiceover or dialogue.

Can I add my logo or text on screen?

The video comes without burned-in text, so it stays clean. Add your logo, offer and end card in your video editor or ad platform, and post it with the caption Idyllic writes.

Can I use the promo in ads?

Yes. Paid plans include a commercial license. The product commercial and cinematic looks suit YouTube, LinkedIn and other video ads.

How long does it take to make?

Several minutes. Each shot is animated by Veo 3.1, then the music is composed and everything is cut together. The free preview of the plan is ready much sooner.

Can I make a vertical version?

This flow makes 16:9. For 9:16, use the TikTok video flow, or the product video flow to feature your own product from a photo.
