The library
Ads we’ve made.
A few sample ads, all made in our studio.
Want one with your logo in it? We’ll make it free.
What you get
Finished ads,
ready to use.
You send us one email with your logo and a few words about your business. What comes back is a finished film in every size you need, ready to use the moment it arrives.
A character that is actually yours
We design an animated character that looks like it belongs to your business, and we keep it looking exactly the same in every ad you run. The same face in January as in March, so people recognise you before they read your name.
There is nothing for you to edit
Send us your logo and a sentence about what you would like people to do. We write it, voice it, score it, animate it and add the captions. What comes back are finished video files, ready to upload.
We built the studio ourselves
Every ad is made in Shorts4U, the studio we built and run. Because it is ours, we can shape each film around what a business actually needs, instead of fitting it into something that already exists.
Made for your thumb and your TV
Every ad comes back vertical, square and widescreen, so the same film works in a feed, on your website, and on a screen in your reception. The opening second is built to stop someone scrolling, the captions are part of the picture because most people watch without sound, and it always ends by telling them what to do next.
How it works
Three steps, and you only take the first.
-
1
Send your logo and website
Your logo and your website. No website? Just tell us what you do and what you would like the ad to say. That is everything we need, and it takes about two minutes.
-
2
We build
We write the script, design the character, record the voiceover, score it, animate it and add the captions. You will see a first version within 48 hours, and you get up to five rounds of changes on it.

You get the files
Finished video files in vertical, square and widescreen. Yours to use anywhere you like, for as long as you like, with nothing further to pay.

Questions
The things people ask first.
Not answered here? Ask us directly. We reply to everything ourselves.
How fast is it, really?
You will see a first version within 48 hours of us having everything we need, and the finished ad inside a week, including your changes. If you have a date to meet, tell us and we will say honestly whether we can meet it.
Is this AI?
Yes, and we would rather tell you than have you wonder. We use AI tools inside a studio we built and run ourselves, and that is a large part of why this costs what it does. A person still watches every frame before you see it, and a person still decides whether it is good enough to send you. The technology does the work. It does not make the judgement calls.
Do I own the finished ad?
Completely. Full commercial rights, on every platform, with no expiry and nothing further to pay. All we ask in return is that you confirm the logo and branding you send us are yours to use. We put that in writing before the first paid ad.
Will it actually look like my brand?
That is rather the point of it. The colours, the logo, the fonts and the way it speaks all come from what you already have. If you have brand guidelines, send them. If you have a logo and nothing else, that is plenty to start with.
What if the first version is wrong?
Up to five rounds of changes are included on a paid ad, and “this has missed the mark, please start again” is a perfectly fair thing to say. We would much rather rebuild it than hand you something you are never going to use.
Do you shoot real people?
No. Animated 2D and 3D only. If you need a founder talking to camera, a local videographer is the right call and we will happily point you at one.
Do you run the ads too?
No. We hand you the files and you run them, or your agency does. We make the ads; we do not buy the advertising space. If you need someone for that side of it, we are happy to recommend people.
Why is the first one free?
Because watching one tells you far more than any description we could write. You get a real ad with your own logo in it, you keep it whatever you decide, and then you can judge for yourself whether more of them are worth it. Two things to know: the free draft carries a small watermark and comes as made, without reworks, and we may show it in our portfolio. A paid ad has neither the mark nor that condition.
