AI Ads: Talking-Head, Animation, UGC, Testimonial, for E-commerce brands 🚀 𝗖𝗣𝗔 𝗗𝗲𝗰𝗿𝗲𝗮𝘀𝗲 𝗚𝘂𝗮𝗿𝗮𝗻𝘁𝗲𝗲𝗱 𝗳𝗼𝗿 𝗗𝗧𝗖 𝗯𝗿𝗮𝗻𝗱𝘀 ❝ 𝗪𝗲 𝗰𝘆𝗰𝗹𝗲𝗱 𝘁𝗵𝗿𝗼𝘂𝗴𝗵 𝗺𝗮𝗻𝘆 𝗮𝗴𝗲𝗻𝗰𝗶𝗲𝘀 — 𝘆𝗼𝘂'𝗿𝗲 𝘄𝗵𝗮𝘁 𝘄𝗼𝗿𝗸𝗲𝗱 𝗳𝗼𝗿 𝘂𝘀. ❞ Hi! 👋 I'm Sam. I make AI video and static ads for DTC brands that actually convert. Most "AI ads" you see are slop — uncanny faces, broken physics, products that look nothing like the real thing. That's not what I do. I build creatives that pass the human eye test and hit performance targets, because I treat every output like a paid media asset, not a tech demo. Currently producing for brands spending $800K to $8M+ in annual ad spend. Focus is scroll-stopping hooks, direct response structure, and fast iteration based on performance data. What I help DTC brands with: 1️⃣ AI Video Ads (Meta + TikTok) UGC-style talking heads, product demos, hook-based shorts, before/after creatives. Built with Kling, Sora, Veo, ElevenLabs, and HeyGen — finished in CapCut Pro. Every video ships with multiple hook variations for A/B testing. 2️⃣ Static Ad Creatives Direct response statics for cold and retargeting. Built around the same hook-and-angle research that drives the video work. 3️⃣ Creative Strategy I don't just execute — I develop the angles, hooks, and concepts. Then test, kill what's not working, and double down on what is. 4️⃣ Batch Production at Scale I run a small team of editors and AI generators across time zones. That's how I ship 100s of creatives a month for brands like MethodIQ without quality dropping. 🎯 Target CPA Guarantee — for the right brands, I'm willing to put a guaranteed cost-per-acquisition on the creatives I deliver. Skin in the game. Tools I live in: Kling, Sora, Veo, Higgsfield Nano Banana, ElevenLabs, HeyGen, CapCut Pro, Photoshop. Brands behind the work: MethodIQ ($600k/mo), Bimble, Zing Bars, and others — full case studies in my portfolio below.
