UGC promos

How do you make a faceless UGC video from a campaign brief?

A UGC campaign pays for a short video that sells the product, and most of the ones that get approved have no face in them at all: a hook, a few lines of big moving text, the product on screen, a voice reading it, and a call to action. Here is what goes into one, and how to get it from the brief in a few minutes.

Four looks, one brief

The same script in each style. Yours is written from your brief, in your language.

Glow
Clean
Neon
Hype

Sound is off on this page. Every promo comes with a voiceover; you can listen to both voices before you make one.

What a UGC promo is made of

Five parts, and you bring only the first. Everything else is made from it.

  1. 1

    The brief

    Paste the campaign brief, your own script, or just a description of the product. A script is kept word for word and split into scenes; a brief or a description is turned into one.

  2. 2

    A hook and a script

    The first two seconds stop the scroll, every scene says one thing, and the last one asks for the click. The script only claims what the brief says.

  3. 3

    A voice that reads it

    A female or a male voice, in English, Spanish, Portuguese, French, German or Italian, with short pauses where a person would take a breath.

  4. 4

    Text that moves with the voice

    Each word lands on screen as it is said. TikTok, Instagram, YouTube and the other apps get their own icons, and the product's name gets the icon from its own website.

  5. 5

    The product itself

    Add up to four screenshots, or a link to the product page. Phone screens go into a phone, wide ones into a browser window, and the picture slowly pushes in.

Making one, start to finish

A couple of minutes of your time. The video takes a few more.

  1. Paste the brief. Copy it from the campaign page. Add the product link and the hashtags or mentions the brief asks for: they go into the post's tags and description for you.
  2. Add screenshots. Screens of the app or the product, straight from your phone or computer. They upload while you fill in the rest.
  3. Pick the look, the length and the voice. Glow, Clean, Neon or Hype, 15, 30 or 45 seconds, and the voice you like best after listening to both.
  4. Get the video. It arrives in your library with a title, a description and hashtags written for it. Download it, post it straight to TikTok, Instagram or YouTube, or put it on your content plan.

What it costs

A video costs 60 credits for 15 seconds, 100 for 30 and 140 for 45. A carousel costs 40. If something goes wrong on our side, the credits come back.

Questions

UGC promos

Do I need to show my face or film anything?

No. The whole video is made from the brief: the text, the voice and the motion. If you want the product on screen, add a few screenshots or the link to its page.

Can I use my own script?

Yes. Paste it into the same box as a brief. It is kept word for word and split into scenes, and only the text on screen is shortened so it fits.

Does the voice sound like a robot?

It reads like a person: it pauses between phrases and does not rush. Before you make a promo you can listen to both voices right in the form.

Which campaigns is it for?

Campaigns that pay for UGC or slideshow posts about an app, a game, a course or a product. Always read the brief first: if it asks for your face or your own voice, film that part yourself.

Can I post it straight from SnapDub?

Yes. A promo is a clip like any other: post it to TikTok, Instagram or YouTube, or schedule it on your content plan. A carousel is downloaded as slides and posted as a photo post in the app.
