Flova: Plan a Promo Video Before You Spend a Credit

Step-by-step guide8 slidesFlova

By Robert Breen · Published · From the free lesson Flova: Plan a Promo Video from a Script Before You Spend a Credit

A visual guide to Flova’s AI video agent: paste your exact script, get the storyboard and credit estimate first, then make and fix one reference image.

  1. Flova. Plan the promo video before you pay for it. A ten-second Instagram promo for a made-up bakery, Cedar Lane. Script in, a checked plan and one good picture out.
    Slide 1 of 8
  2. Step 1. Pick a skill, paste the exact script. Choose Product Promo Video under Commercial skills. Give the length, the exact words, the look and the shape. Screenshot: Flova home with the Product Promo Video skill tag, a pasted bakery script and the Models menu open.

  3. Step 2. Ask for the storyboard only. Ask for the shots and the credit cost, and tell it not to make any media. Check that each shot lines up with a line of your script. Screenshot: Flova storyboard panel listing Key Elements and the first Shot.
    Slide 3 of 8
  4. Step 3. Read the credit estimate. Flova prices the work before it makes anything. The lesson’s estimate priced the images but not the video. If a price is missing, ask again. Screenshot: Flova chat showing a credit estimate: 15 credits for three images, no price for the video.

  5. Step 4. Make one image, read its prompt. Ask for one reference image with the cheaper model and tell it to stop. Click Prompt under the picture to read exactly what Flova asked the image model. Screenshot: Flova preview with the sourdough image above the text prompt Flova wrote.
    Slide 5 of 8
  6. Step 5. Fix it with one change. Use the edit box under the picture: ask for one small change and say what stays the same. The old version is kept, so you can compare the two. Screenshot: Flova storyboard with two versions of the sourdough image, the edited one selected.

  7. Before anything goes out. Check every word and the product. The video is the expensive part, so decide the plan and the look first. Check the script, the product and the claims against the real bakery. Flova has its own account, credits and plans: check flova.ai for current prices.

The guide in text

A ten-second Instagram promo for a made-up bakery, Cedar Lane. Script in, a checked plan and one good picture out.

Step by step

  1. Pick a skill, paste the exact script

    Choose Product Promo Video under Commercial skills. Give the length, the exact words, the look and the shape.

  2. Ask for the storyboard only

    Ask for the shots and the credit cost, and tell it not to make any media. Check that each shot lines up with a line of your script.

  3. Read the credit estimate

    Flova prices the work before it makes anything. The lesson’s estimate priced the images but not the video. If a price is missing, ask again.

  4. Make one image, read its prompt

    Ask for one reference image with the cheaper model and tell it to stop. Click Prompt under the picture to read exactly what Flova asked the image model.

  5. Fix it with one change

    Use the edit box under the picture: ask for one small change and say what stays the same. The old version is kept, so you can compare the two.

Check every word and the product
