Concept ad I made for Apple.
Tools used:
- Seedance 2.0
- Nano Banana
- After Effects
- Premiere Pro
Finally got to try out some new AI video tools - gave myself 1 hour to make something start to finish.
Here’s the result
UGC creators are about to be replaced by 19 year olds who know how to prompt.
The costumers won't be able to see the difference between a real creator and an AI avatar...
The barrier to entry just dropped massively. Speed + volume is what makes the difference now.
The truth is that ai will replace most of you.
In 2026 nobody is looking for “video editors” or “media buyers”. People are looking to hire creative directors & strategists.
If your output is an mp4 file or setting up a campaign, consider yourself replaced. AI can do this…
UGC is no longer a “creative” game, it’s a volume game.
You don’t need the perfect video. You just need 10 “okay” videos to find the winning angle that lowers your CPA.
AI makes everything so much easier now. If you’re still running 3 ads a week, you’re just giving away your money to meta.
AI just created a baseline. Quality won't be a differentiator anymore.
the only things that matter are:
>brand Trust: people buy from people
>distribution: who can get the most eyeballs for the least spend.
>data loops: who can iterate on a failing hook the fastest
>story: a perfectly created AI video with no narrative will no longer perform.
Creating a winning ad isn’t just making one creative, launching it and then forgetting about it for weeks.
Use AI to scrape your Meta comments, analyze the drop-off point in your hooks, and generate new versions by the next day.
Every tool I use to produce ai ads:
Higgsfield (nano banana, kling, etc.)
Google AI pro (VEO 3.1)
Frameset (shot inspo)
Freepik (editing/re-generating shots)
Artlist (sound effects)
Elevenlabs (voiceover)
Premiere Pro (editing)
That’s all you need to get started.
