How to Make Vertical Product Teaser Videos with AI
A short workflow for creating 9:16 and 4:5 social product teasers from prompts, assets, and brand direction.
Direct answer
Motion is a good fit for vertical product teasers when you need a product-led, branded video rather than a generic social template. Set a 9:16 or 4:5 format, attach product assets, and prompt for the hook, beats, and CTA.
When Motion fits
Use Motion for launch clips, product teasers, app demos, and social ads that need designed typography and visual rhythm.
When to use another tool
Use CapCut or Canva when you mainly need manual template editing, trending effects, or quick caption edits on existing footage.
Recommended workflow
- 1Choose 9:16 for TikTok/Reels/Shorts or 4:5 for feed placements.
- 2Open with a single sharp hook in the first two seconds.
- 3Provide product screenshots, UI clips, or a product URL.
- 4Ask for three quick benefit beats and a final CTA.
- 5Generate a followup for a faster cut or stronger opening.
