What the UGC Hook template does
The recipe is written around a creator presenting a perfume, so it fits fragrance and beauty products best, and you can steer it with your own description. Add one of your saved characters or a product image as a reference to keep the person or product consistent.
It renders an 8-second clip in vertical 9:16, sized for TikTok, Reels and Shorts, and you can test several hooks for the same product.
Example prompt: A creator in a sunlit bathroom holding up a glass perfume bottle and spraying it towards the camera.
Great for
- Short-form ad hooks for TikTok, Reels and Shorts
- Fragrance and beauty product launches
- Testing several creator-style openers quickly
Questions
How many credits does the UGC Hook template cost?
66 credits for the default 8-second 1080p render, or 45 credits at 720p. That includes the 2-credit template fee. The studio shows the exact cost before you generate, and higher resolutions cost more.
Do I need to upload a photo?
No. A reference is optional. Add a photo or short clip if you want a specific product or person, or describe it in words and let the template do the rest.
Which AI model makes the UGC Hook video?
Seedance 2.0. While the template is applied it keeps the model, source mode, audio setting and timing matched so the shot renders as designed. You can still change quality and aspect ratio (the default is 9:16).
Do I need a subscription?
Templates run on credits, so you can use them with a monthly plan or with a one-off credit pack. On the Creator plan video renders at up to 720p; Pro, Max and Business can also render 1080p and 4K.
