Learn how to turn a product photo into a finished video ad using ElevenLabs Flows, a node-based canvas that combines image, video, voice, and music models in one place. You will produce a reusable ad-generation Flow that can be duplicated for future products, so each new ad becomes a reference and prompt swap instead of a full rebuild. After the first Flow works, the next ad can be done in minutes.

Who This Is Useful For
- Ecommerce founders who want ads that show their actual product, not a generic AI stand-in
- In-house marketers shipping paid social creative who are tired of bouncing between Midjourney, Runway, and Suno in separate tabs
- Agency owners and content creators who want one repeatable canvas they can clone across clients and product lines
What You Will Build
You will build a reusable Flow that takes 1–3 reference photos of your real product, places it into a generated scene, animates it, and exports a finished video ad with an audio jingle.
- A reference-based image generation setup for your product
- A connected video generation node that animates the generated product scene
- An exportable MP4 video ad
- A Flow you can duplicate and adapt for the next product
What You Need
- An ElevenLabs paid plan with Flows enabled
- 1–3 clean photos of your real product from different angles, such as front, 3/4, or top-down
- A short idea for the scene you want your product placed in
Going Further
- After exporting your MP4, duplicate the Flow and reuse it for the next product by swapping the reference photos and scene prompt. You can also add Text to Speech or Music nodes, connect them into a Mix Audio node, and build a library of reusable ad formats such as 15-second hero ads, 30-second explainers, or UGC talking head canvases.
Let the reference photos define the product, and use prompts to describe the scene or motion. That separation helps keep the real product consistent across variations.
