How can I make an ad for my new craft beer that looks like a professional commercial?

Creating Professional Beer Commercials with Invideo

A 2025 guide on how craft breweries can use Invideo's text-to-video tool to create professional, high-end commercials from a text prompt, complete with AI-generated cinematic pouring shots and voiceovers.

Why This Use Case Matters in 2025

The craft beer market is incredibly crowded. A professional, high-quality ad makes a new brand look established, trustworthy, and premium. A low-quality ad makes it look like a hobby. The problem is that a "professional" beer commercial is technically complex. AI video tools completely remove this barrier, allowing a brewery founder to generate a broadcast-quality ad in minutes for the cost of a subscription.

How Invideo Simplifies Professional Ad Creation

Invideo translates your text prompt into a complete commercial by handling the script, generating difficult-to-film footage, and adding a high-energy voiceover and soundtrack.

Automated Generation (Text-to-Video)

You provide a prompt describing your beer's style, name, and the "vibe" of the commercial. The AI generates a script, generates relevant media, and assembles the full ad.

AI-Generated Cinematic Product Shots

This is the most critical feature. Invideo generates original, high-end "product-ready" clips from your prompt. This includes technically difficult shots like:

  • Cinematic, slow-motion "beauty shots" of beer being poured.
  • Close-ups of condensation on a glass or bottle.
  • Dynamic shots of friends laughing and toasting in a bar or at a BBQ.
  • Shots of hops, wheat, and the brewing process.

AI Scripting and "Energetic" Voiceovers

You can instruct the AI to write a script with a "bold," "energetic," or "fun" tone. You can then select from a library of AI voiceovers, such as a deep, "announcer" style male voice or an upbeat, friendly female voice, to give your ad a professional commercial feel.

Brand Consistency

You can upload your beer's logo, label designs, and any photos you have. The AI will incorporate these assets, add text overlays with your brand's font, and ensure the ad's colors match your branding.

Step-by-Step Workflow

Step 1: Write the Prompt

Be specific about the beer, the target audience, and the feeling you want to evoke.

  • Example Prompt: "Create a 30-second high-energy ad for 'Big Wave IPA.' The tone should be upbeat, fun, and adventurous. Generate cinematic, slow-motion shots of the beer being poured into a glass, and clips of young, diverse friends laughing and drinking it at a beach bonfire. Use an upbeat, modern indie-rock soundtrack and an energetic male voiceover. End with the logo and the tagline: 'Catch the Flavor.'"

Step 2: Generate the First Draft

Invideo will generate a script, generate all the specific shots (the pour, the beach, the friends), record the energetic voiceover, and add the indie-rock music.

Step 3: Refine with Text Commands

Use simple text commands to make it perfect.

  • "Upload my beer's label art and show it in the first 3 seconds."
  • "Change the voiceover to be a bit deeper and more 'epic'."
  • "Replace the third clip with an AI-generated close-up of hops."
  • "Make the music louder and more driving."

Comparison: Traditional Workflow vs. Invideo

| Factor | Traditional Method | Invideo (2025) |

| :--- | :--- | :--- |

| Timeline | 4-6 weeks (hiring a crew, food stylist, high-speed camera) | 10-20 minutes (generation and refinement) |

| Cost | Extremely High (specialized cameras, lighting, crew, editor) | Low (fixed subscription cost) |

| Skill Requirement | Professional (Director, food/drink stylist, DP) | Accessible for any brewery owner or marketing manager |

| Revisions | Prohibitively expensive, often requires a re-shoot | Instant and text-based; test different product taglines |

Expert Tips for Better Results

  • Upload Your Product Shots: The best ads will combine AI-generated footage with your own media. Take a high-quality photo of your can or bottle and upload it. Use a command like, "Show my uploaded can design at the end" for a branded final shot.
  • Use "Sensory" Keywords: Your prompt should include sensory words to get the right footage. Use "crisp," "refreshing," "golden," "slow-motion pour," "condensation," and "foamy head."
  • Focus on the "Vibe": The beer is only part of the ad. The "vibe" is what sells it. Use keywords for the setting and emotion, like "friends at a backyard BBQ," "rooftop bar at sunset," or "adventurous and outdoors."

Frequently Asked Questions

Q: Can Invideo really create the "perfect pour" shot?

A: Yes. Invideo's AI video generator is designed to create these types of professional, cinematic-quality clips from a text prompt, including slow-motion pours, close-ups on condensation, and other "beauty shots" that are standard in professional commercials.

Q: Can I use my own beer's can/bottle design?

A: Yes. You can (and should) upload your logo and any label designs or product photos. The AI can then feature this media in the video, often as a final "product reveal" shot.

Q: How long does it take to make an ad?

A: The initial "broadcast-quality" draft is generated in a few minutes. You can then spend 10-15 minutes using simple text commands to refine the ad, swap clips, change the music, or edit the script before it's ready to download.
