Creating Toy Ads with Invideo
A 2025 guide on how toy brands can use Invideo's text-to-video tool to create fun, colorful, and energetic video ads from a text prompt, complete with AI voiceovers and child-friendly AI-generated visuals.
Why This Use Case Matters in 2025
For a toy brand, video is the primary way to show a product "in play" and capture a child's imagination. However, production is challenging—it often requires hiring child actors and building custom sets. AI video generation solves this by allowing a brand to create a vibrant ad instantly. This is especially useful for creating multiple short ads for different toys to run on platforms like YouTube, Instagram Reels, and TikTok, where parents and children discover new products.
How Invideo Simplifies Toy Ad Creation
Invideo's platform is designed to interpret "feeling" keywords like "fun" and "energetic" and match them with the right visuals and sound.
Automated Generation (Text-to-Video)
A brand manager can enter a prompt describing the toy and the play scenario (e.g., "a building block set for creative kids"). The AI generates a script, generates relevant media, and assembles the video.
AI-Generated & Uploaded Visuals
This is crucial for a toy ad. You can upload your own photos/videos of your product. The AI can then generate original, high-quality clips to supplement your media, including:
- Footage of diverse children playing, laughing, and looking excited.
- Colorful, abstract motion graphics and backgrounds.
- Shots of toys being unboxed or played with.
AI Scripting and "Fun" Voiceovers
You can instruct the AI to write a script with a "fun," "energetic," or "playful" tone. You can then select from a library of AI voiceovers, including "high-energy" adult voices or even "child-like" AI voices, to make the ad engaging for its target audience.
Brand Consistency & Uploads
A brand can upload its own photos and videos of the toy. The AI can then build the ad around this media, supplementing it with AI-generated footage of kids playing to create a complete, polished commercial. You can also upload your logo and brand colors.
Step-by-Step Workflow
Step 1: Write the Prompt
Be specific about the toy's name, function, and the emotion it creates.
- Example Prompt: "Create a 30-second ad for 'SparkleBots,' our new robot-building toy for kids. I am uploading photos of the toy. The tone must be fun, energetic, and exciting! Generate colorful shots of kids (ages 6-10) laughing and building to mix with my photos. Use a fast-paced, upbeat pop soundtrack and an energetic female voiceover. End with our logo and the tagline: 'Build Your World!'"
Step 2: Generate the First Draft
Invideo will generate a script, generate clips of kids playing, record the fun voiceover, and add the pop music, all while featuring your uploaded product photos.
Step 3: Refine with Text Commands
Use simple text commands to make it more playful.
- "Show the 'SparkleBot' box (from my uploads) in the first 3 seconds."
- "Change the voiceover to a different, more upbeat female voice."
- "Add a colorful 'swoosh' transition between the clips."
- "Make the background music even faster and more fun."

Expert Tips for Better Results
- Upload Your Product Media: The best toy ads show the actual toy. Upload your own photos and video clips of your product. The AI will then expertly weave this with AI-generated footage of happy kids to create a dynamic, professional ad.
- Use "Action" & "Emotion" Keywords: Your prompt must include keywords like "fun," "laughing,"" "energetic," "colorful," "fast-paced," "playful," and "imaginative."
- Focus on the Child's Reaction: The ad should show kids enjoying the toy. Use prompts like, "Generate a shot of a child's face lighting up with excitement" or "Generate shots of kids playing together and laughing."
