How to get a video when all you have is your business name
Say your business name and ask what you should make. Vizard Agent looks the business up, pulls the real text and photographs off your own website, reviews what is actually there, and builds an advertisement from material you already own rather than asking you to supply footage.
What do you type into Vizard Agent?
You can genuinely just ask the question. Vizard Agent researches the business properly before it proposes anything, so a single line gets a considered answer rather than a generic template. Adding the web address saves a search, and adding the platform and the goal narrows it usefully without needing a brief.
Prompt
What does Vizard Agent actually do?
It doesn't decide what to make until it has seen what the business actually has. Most of the session is research and looking, and Vizard Agent takes the branding from the live site, so the finished video looks like the thing people land on when they click. Nothing is filmed. In the session behind this article it:
- Searched online for the business, fetched the real details from its website and found the other pages, including the portfolio.
- Downloaded the photographs, laid them out as contact sheets and reviewed them in two sets, then eight of them at full size.
- Made vertical crops of the photographs, prepared two for animating, and generated the voiceover, music and moving shots.
- Read the exact timing of the voiceover to find its pauses, and took the brand colours and typeface from the site.
- Made a test layout of the frame, improved four of the crops and re-checked them.
- Tightened the voiceover, generated the end card and rendered a vertical film of fourteen picture beats.
When does this not work well?
Everything depends on what your website actually holds, and some sites hold very little. Vizard Agent will tell you plainly when there isn't enough, rather than filling the gap with stock imagery. A site of stock photos gives a generic video, low-resolution images show in crops and motion, and claims on your site carry into the video as written.
Common questions
Do I really not need a brief? No. Vizard Agent researches the business and proposes something you can react to.
What if I have no footage? Photographs are enough. Vizard Agent animates stills and builds the film from them.
Will it match my branding? Yes. Vizard Agent takes the colours and typeface from the site itself.
