HOW I MAKE MY VIDEO ADS

I´ll lay out the ENTIRE PROCESS I go through from gathering the content to having a finished, converting video ad.

You could start following this process for your own store, if you have the time for it of course ;)

~THREAD~
So where do I begin?

It all begins with the job, most of the times I get the content handed to me in a google drive so I can get to work immediately.

If I DON& #39;T, I do it myself.

Firstly you must understand, that the copy and the video most be CONGRUENT.

Lemme Explain

Let& #39;s say I make a video ad for a pillow that helps you sleep well.

When the copy says:

& #39;& #39;Are you having trouble sleeping?& #39;& #39;

What video goes well with this? I can assure you it& #39;s not a woman smiling walking down the street.

IT& #39;S SOMEONE LAYING IN BED TURNING AND TURNING
So before we search for the content, we must have the copy.

This is how I structure the copy for my videos:

Videos are 30 sec long, so 5-6 sentences and then a CTA.

I like to start my vids with a question, this works wonders.

For example:

A laptop stand.

Lead into it with
& #39;& #39;Want to work at home without constant back pain?& #39;& #39;

It draws attention if you make it pop up in the screen. Do that.

Customer relates to the questions -> keeps on watching your ad.

So that& #39;s it for the first sentence, I like to make this 3-5 sec long.
After that you work on the rest of the copy.

What I like to do for the last sentence before the CTA is this:

Either have the product name with some benefits pop up, or have a testimonial there.

Then end with a strong CTA.

THAT& #39;S IT FOR THE COPY, ONTO THE ACTUAL VIDEO.
So, if I have to search for the content myself I just go to youtube first.

Search for the product and get as much content as I can. unboxing videos, videos of it being used, etc.

I use http://ytcutter.com"> http://ytcutter.com 

HANDS DOWN THE BEST.

You can insert a URL and download

WHATEVER part of the video you want.

Only want a 5 sec clip? No issue with http://ytcutter.com"> http://ytcutter.com 

I love it.

It& #39;s free, but I recommend buying it you& #39;ll get better quality downloads and now issues. only $10

After that, I move to aliexpress
I search for the product there and download videos of the product.

Sometimes there is a good video, most often not.

Then we go to https://elements.envato.com/ 

HANDS">https://elements.envato.com/">... DOWN THE BEST €29 you can spend.

For a video editor? It& #39;s a must.
You can download unlimited stock video and stock images (It& #39;s where I get mine)

AND you can download transition packs, lower thirds. Whatever

Stuff that will make your video look 100x more professional.
So now, we got the Content + Copy

LET& #39;S MAKE THE VIDEO

I use Premiere Pro

For me, It& #39;s the best software to use. (Still learning After Effects to make my vids even better)

What is the process I go through to make my videos?

Lemme tell you
ORGANIZATION IS KEY FOR ME

So I make sure that first of all, I have all my files in order.

I Got a folder for my clients, each client has his own folder

In this folder are 2 other folders:

Content and Video

All the content I got is in Content and I save my video in video
Now, I go to premiere pro and make a new file.

Make a new sequence, these are my settings.

Import the entire content folder and you can start working.

My process:

I start by searching my music, this is important because you want to make sure the music somewhat matches with your video. Makes it much more engaging.

I find this music on envato elements.

Then it& #39;s time to start editing!
You have 2 options here:

Either you do everything in one go, so you start the first 5 seconds.

Do the content + text and once it& #39;s finished go on to the next sentence

OR

Have all the content in order first, full 30 sec and then focus on the text + effects
How do I do it? Depends.

Most of the times I just work bit by bit.

Get the first 5 sec done, then onto the next.

BUT, this is just the content and text.

NOT THE EFFECTS.

Once I have the content and text ready,

I focus on transitions and effects. Making everything PERFECT
When that& #39;s all done, I render it and I have my final video!
