What AI tool do you use for UGC video ads? And is Upwork worth it for this? Beginner here

Hey everyone, I'm new to this and trying to start making AI UGC ads for brands as a freelancer. I'm planning to go on Upwork to find clients.

I tried Google's AI video tool but the voice sounds different in every clip, so it's not usable for real ads. I also can't pay a lot every month right now since I have zero clients yet.

So what do you guys actually use? I need something where the person and the voice stay the same in all the videos, and it should look real enough to sell to clients.

Also is there any free or cheap option that doesn't put a watermark on the video? And is it worth paying more for the expensive ones?

Last thing: is Upwork even worth it for AI UGC ads right now? Do clients really hire for this there, or is it better to look somewhere else? Would love to hear from anyone who has tried it.

Thanks, any advice helps!

I want to make a short video with me and my friends as power rangers. What AI gives the best overall result?

Hi! First I want to clarify I searched for info about this before asking, and even found a very useful post from this sub abut my question. But I would like to ask this to get help in my particular case.

- The thing: A short video (10 secs aprox) for a friend's birthday.

- The idea: Me and other friends, appearing outdoors wearing classic power rangers costumes without helmets (as seen in the posted photo), saying to camera something like "happy birthday, now let's save the world again", hiving to her (to the camera) her power ranger helmet as some group of bad guys are approaching to us from the background.

- The question: I've read that the best thing for things like this is to use different AIs, but we don't need a super-realistic video, but neither would like to have a "potato quality" one.

- The main point of the question: if it's possible to use just one AI for a video like this, which one is the best overall? I don't care if I have to pay like one month of subscription.

Thanks in advance! :)

For people who make AI videos/Shorts, what’s your process?

Hey guys, I’m pretty new to making AI videos and I’m trying to figure out how everyone actually does this.

I’ve been trying to make short horror/true crime style videos with multiple scenes. I started with Gemini Pro, but I’ve already run into the problem where it only lets me make like 3 to 4 video clips and then I have to wait a few hours for it to reset. It takes forever when I’m trying to make a video with lots of scenes.

So I wanted to ask people who already do this, what tools do you use and what’s your workflow?

Like, do you:

Write the story first and then make images for each scene?

Generate images first and turn them into videos?

Generate the videos directly from prompts?

Use one AI for images and another for video?

How do you keep the same character, clothes, background and overall art style throughout all the clips? This is probably the part I’m struggling with the most because every new generation seems to change something

Do you use character reference images, specific prompts, seeds, etc.?

And how do you deal with generation limits when you need to make a lot of clips?

I’m basically trying to figure out a workflow that I can actually use consistently without having to wait hours every time I make a few clips.

If anyone makes AI Shorts, I’d REALLY appreciate it if you could share how you do yours, even if it’s just a basic rundown of your process. And if you have any tips for keeping everything consistent, please share them because I’m strugglinggg 😭

Thanks!! ❤️

Best AI tool/model for creating premium 15–30 sec real estate platform ads?

I'm looking for the best current AI workflow/model to create a series of short, premium promotional videos for a new real estate platform.

The goal is to produce around 15–20 different ads, each about 15–30 seconds long, mainly for Instagram/Facebook Reels and other social media.

I'm NOT looking for talking avatars. I want something closer to a professionally produced real estate brand commercial:

  • cinematic shots of apartments, houses, land and coastal properties
  • premium/high-end commercial look
  • good transitions and consistent visual style
  • clean text overlays integrated into the video
  • ideally AI voiceover as well
  • 9:16 format
  • each video should feel like an actual brand campaign, not random AI-generated clips stitched together

I can add the actual logo, URL and final CTA myself in CapCut, so the AI doesn't need to generate the branding correctly.

I've already experimented with Runway, including multi-shot prompting, but the result was pretty disappointing. It looked more like generic AI footage than a polished real estate advertisement.

I'm open to generating individual scenes and assembling them afterward if that's currently the better approach. Quality matters much more than having everything generated with one click.

Which model/tool would you use right now for this? Veo, Kling, Runway, Sora, HeyGen, Seedance, or something else?

Also, would you recommend:

A) one prompt generating the complete 15–30 sec commercial
B) generating 3–5 individual scenes and editing them together
C) image-to-video using prepared real estate images
D) another workflow entirely

I'm especially interested in the prompting/workflow you would use to keep 15–20 videos visually consistent and premium.

If you've actually created AI ads for real estate, automotive, hospitality or another premium brand, I'd love to hear which model and workflow gave you the best results.
