So I’ve been experimenting and finally finished this workflow that turns a simple screenshot of a character + a product image into a full UGC-style video using Google Veo3.
Think Pocahontas reviewing gummy bears, Mario demoing a SaaS dashboard, or Superman talking about a protein powder.
The results? Surprisingly good with small mistakes at times, but insanely cheap.
Veo3 “Fast” runs about $0.30/video and the max duration is 8 seconds.
Veo3's “Quality” tier is $1.25/video also with a max duration of 8 seconds.
That means a $20 budget can pump out 60+ videos that are almost guaranteed to make people stop scrolling because of the creativity.
If even one of those converts, your ROI could be 1000x+ if you have a solid funnel set up.
----------------------------
The automation itself looks complex but it essentially runs like this:
- I send my Telegram bot a screenshot of the character + product along with the prompt for the UGC video
- An AI agent analyzes the reference photo and turns it into a detailed description of the product and character
- To generate the first frame (photo) of the video, I use the HTTP Request node to connect to the Kie AI API because it hosts GPT 4o image. You could also use Nano Banana, Midjourney, or any other image generator Kie offers but GPT 4o to me is the most accurate.
- Now that I have the first frame, I use the HTTP request node to request Kie AI's API again, but this time to generate a video with Google Veo3.
- Veo3 can only generate 8 second clips, so now for the last HTTP request node. This time, to request Fal AI's API and merge the clips using the video editing software FFmpeg.
(Note: Kei AI and Fal AI are just API Aggregrators/marketplaces. Think of it like Apify but for image and video generators.)
I'm not going to pretend this is straight up magic yet. You’ll still see small hallucinations in text on products. But for anyone running TikTok Shop, ecom stores, or SaaS landing pages… this is insane leverage.
Especially if you live and die by content volume like most internet businesses.
You’re basically creating a digital influencer army that can spin up endless variations of videos.
