The creator is composited over a full-bleed on-screen element — a review, an article, a competitor page, a product screenshot — which they point at and react to.
When to use it
The fastest way to make a claim someone else made into your ad. Ideal for press mentions, five-star reviews, a viral comment, or a competitor's own pricing page.
The thing to get right
The thing behind the creator has to be legible on a phone at speed. If a viewer has to squint at the screenshot, the format has spent its hook on something they never read.
The format at a glance
- Output — a video ad.
- Structure — 4 beats, each one a separately planned shot.
- Family — Creator & UGC video.
- Recipe id — green_screen, which is what you name when you ask for it by hand or from an agent.
How Hermoso renders it
You do not write a prompt for this. Hermoso reads your brand first — the product, the logo, the palette, the voice — from your website or a short description, then plans the ad against this format: a beat list, the on-screen copy, and the casting if a person appears. The render happens beat by beat, and every word that ends up on screen is composited afterwards by the app rather than painted by the model, so headlines, captions and the end card come out exactly as written instead of warped and half-invented.
If you have a real product photograph, add it. It is the difference between an ad showing your packaging and an ad showing packaging a model imagined, and it is the single biggest quality lever on any product format here.

Driving it from an agent
Every format on this site is reachable from an AI agent as well as the web studio. Hermoso ships an MCP server, so Claude, Claude Code, Cursor, Codex and any other MCP client can call plan_ad to draft the creative and render_ad to produce it, name a format as the recipe, and get a finished file back — with the same brand grounding and the same composited-text guarantees. The MCP and CLI overview covers the setup, and the generated tool reference is the complete list.
