# AI video examples you can turn into this week's posts

Six formats from real accounts, each with the move worth borrowing and a worked version for a coach, consultant, agent or lawyer that keeps your own face, voice and claims.

Source page: https://postmosis.com/vault/ai-video-examples. By Leo at Postmosis. Last checked 2026-10-29. Adapted from Keepy Labs: [AI Video Examples](https://keepylabs.com/ai-avatars/ai-video-examples).

In short: The AI video examples worth copying come from accounts that repeat one format about the thing they sell: Qoves explaining one face feature per reel, Denny Kurien narrating over AI mockups, Dexter Zee's cartoon mascot telling one money story per video [1]. For your own posts, pick the format by what clients need: a mascot for one big objection, a character when they need to feel seen, your own avatar when they need to trust you [2]. Then keep each idea to one action per clip [3].

## Which format to start with

Start from what clients say before they book, then pick the format that answers it:

- You hear the same doubt on every call: start with a [mascot](https://postmosis.com/vault/brand-mascot) that beats it [2].
- Clients tell you "that's exactly me": start with an [AI character](https://postmosis.com/vault/consistent-ai-character) who lives their problem [2].
- Clients need to trust you before they book: use your own face or an [AI avatar](https://postmosis.com/vault/ai-avatar) of you [2].
- Clients replay the same argument with a partner or a boss: make a [micro-drama](https://postmosis.com/vault/ai-short-film) [4].
- You hand over something people can see, like a report or a plan: try [AI UGC](https://postmosis.com/vault/ai-ugc) [5].
- You'd rather nobody's face was on camera: start with a [faceless story](https://postmosis.com/vault/faceless-reels) [1].

Most businesses end up using two [2]. In a practice of one, a sensible pair is your own face once a week for trust and one AI format for reach, so a week of three posts has one you film and two you don't.

Example: A family lawyer's week: on Monday an avatar of her answers one question clients ask in the first meeting, on Wednesday a faceless explainer over AI pictures covers one document people forget to bring, and on Friday she films herself for a minute on her phone, which makes one filmed post out of three.

The Postmosis video editor cuts pauses and filler from a talking video, adds captions in one of 6 styles and exports four sizes in one run. [See the video editor](https://postmosis.com/features/video-editor)

## Six formats at a glance

AI video formats:

| | What's on screen | Best for | Accounts to study |
| --- | --- | --- | --- |
| Founder avatar | An AI clone of your face and voice, reading scripts you approve | Founders who should be the face but can't film every week | Rowan Cheung of The Rundown AI; Roomvu, for agents [1] |
| Faceless story | Words and objects on screen, maybe a simple character, and no one on camera | Businesses with no face to put on camera | Denny Kurien; Saveo House [1] |
| Mascot | Your brand as a hero beating your clients' objections | One big myth or objection that stops buyers | Dexter Zee; Smilestudio [1] |
| AI character | A made-up person living your client's problem, every episode | Making buyers feel seen | Wei Chen; Bailey & the Bean [1] |
| AI UGC | An AI presenter showing what you deliver like a creator on their phone | Demos, ad tests and volume | dresscodelab.co [1] |
| Micro-drama | A short animated film with a cast and real dialogue | Telling a client's story in under a minute | Independent shorts such as The Prompt Floor [1][6] |

Each format has its own guide: [AI avatars](https://postmosis.com/vault/ai-avatar), [faceless reels](https://postmosis.com/vault/faceless-reels), the [brand mascot playbook](https://postmosis.com/vault/brand-mascot), [consistent AI characters](https://postmosis.com/vault/consistent-ai-character), [AI UGC](https://postmosis.com/vault/ai-ugc) and the [AI short film guide](https://postmosis.com/vault/ai-short-film).

The accounts on this page all post in public, and their follower and play counts haven't been independently verified [1]. None of these figures says how many people booked or bought, so read a play count as proof that a format holds attention and nothing more.

## Where each format falls short

Every format has a point where it stops working for a practice of one. Know it before you plan a month of posts around one:

Where each AI video format falls short:

| | It falls short when | Do this instead |
| --- | --- | --- |
| Founder avatar | Clients need to meet the real you, or a clip runs long enough for the lips to drift out of sync | Film yourself for the trust posts and keep avatar clips short [1][7] |
| Faceless story | The idea can't be pictured one sentence at a time | Say it to camera in a talking-head video  |
| Mascot | You can't back the answer with a fact you'd defend | Fix the answer first, or pick another doubt [2] |
| AI character | It's passed off as a real person with an invented life story | Label it clearly and give it no made-up biography [1] |
| AI UGC | You need proof that your work helped someone | Let real clients, with their permission, do the convincing [5] |
| Micro-drama | You need the film itself to close the sale | Follow it with your own answer on camera [4] |

In every example that works, the AI only presents, narrates or acts. The ideas, the script and the editing do the persuading [1].

## Pick an idea that works

Run your idea through three checks before you spend any credits [3]:

1. One action per clip. A key turning in a lock is one clip. A day in the life of an agent is a whole series of them [3].
2. Use AI for shots your phone can't get, such as aerial reveals, historical scenes, physics tricks and close-ups of tiny things [3]. A tip you could say to camera doesn't need any of that, while the inside of a tangled contract does.
3. The first second has to make sense on its own. If the idea needs a caption to make sense, sharpen the idea [3].

Ideas that pass all three checks:

| | The one action | Why it needs AI |
| --- | --- | --- |
| Coach | A backpack labelled "someday" slides off a runner's shoulders | You can't film a weight lifting off  |
| Consultant | A tangled org chart straightens into clean lines | A diagram doesn't move on camera  |
| Real estate agent | In a listing photo, only the pool water ripples | One motion over a photo you already own  |
| Lawyer | A pile of loose paperwork folds itself into one signed page | Paper doesn't fold itself  |
| Freelance designer | A pencil sketch of a logo fills in to the finished mark | The whole process in one shot  |

Good ideas usually start from something you already explain on calls. Turn that explanation into one moving picture, then write it up as a shot.

## Turn the idea into a finished clip

1. Write the idea as one shot direction: subject, action, setting, camera, lighting, style and constraints [3].
2. If the exact look already exists, such as your portrait, your mascot's reference sheet or a listing photo, start from the image and describe only the motion. If the model has to invent the scene, start from text [3].
3. For a vertical post, add "vertical 9:16 composition" to the prompt, keep the subject in the centre and leave space for captions [3].
4. Draft at 4 seconds until the motion reads right, then make the final at 5 to 15 seconds with the winning prompt kept word for word [3].
5. Add your own voice, captions and one next action in the edit, and switch on the AI label when you post [8].

Keep clips short on purpose. Short clips are easier for AI to get right, and as a clip runs on, small errors stack up: faces change shape and objects start to float [7]. Several short clips cut together hide that better than one long one.

Example shot direction: a lawyer's paperwork clip:

```
A tall pile of loose paperwork on a wooden desk folds itself, page by page, into one neat signed document with a blue seal. Locked camera at desk height, slow push-in. Soft morning window light. Clean, realistic style. Vertical 9:16 composition, subject centred, space at the bottom for captions. Exactly one pile of paper, no people, no hands, no readable text.
```

Example: She drafts it at 4 seconds three times and keeps the version where no page melts into the desk, then makes the final at 8 seconds. Over it she records one line in her own voice: "Here's the one document to bring to your first meeting." The caption ends "Book a first call. Made with AI."

## Animation styles to borrow

If your clip doesn't need to look real, an animated style can carry it. These suit a practice of one:

AI animation styles:

| | What it looks like | Your version |
| --- | --- | --- |
| 2D animation | The flat, hand-drawn look of The Simpsons, used for cartoon clips, business explainers and teaching | A plain-English explainer with one drawing per sentence [9] |
| 3D character | Depth and movement with no modelling or rigging, suited to brand mascots that move and interact | Your mascot turning to face the camera before it speaks [9] |
| Cinemagraph | Most of the image stays still while one subtle motion plays | A listing photo where only the pool water moves [9] |
| Stop-motion | Objects move one frame at a time, the handcrafted look of Wallace and Gromit, made without shooting frame by frame | A coach's framework built from clay blocks, one block per step [9] |
| Motion graphics | Animated type, shapes and visual elements in place of characters or scenes | Your name and your one-line promise as the opening of every video [9] |
| Intro and outro | A short animated sequence that frames each episode and gives every video the same look | The same short sting at the start of each weekly explainer [9] |

Stop-motion is the style most people don't know AI can do. It has the handcrafted look of objects moving one frame at a time, and it adds personality to product clips, brand moments and teaching videos [9]. Adobe's own example is a claymation plant growing upward in a terracotta pot, made from a one-line prompt [9]. In a practice of one it suits anything you teach in steps: a coach's framework as clay blocks stacking into a staircase, an agent's buying process as a clay house going up brick by brick, a lawyer's checklist as clay folders sliding into a drawer one at a time. Here's the first one as a prompt:

Example prompt: a stop-motion framework:

```
Claymation-style stop-motion animation: five chunky clay blocks in warm colours stack one by one into a small staircase on a plain cream table, each block landing with a tiny bounce. Locked camera, soft daylight. Vertical 9:16 composition, subject centred. No text, no hands.
```

Intros and outros do the job they do for YouTube channels and podcasts: they brand the video and frame each episode [9]. Make one short sting and put it on every weekly video, so viewers know it's you before you say a word. Keep the words out of the prompt and add your name in the edit, since AI garbles text on screen [4].

Example prompt: an intro sting:

```
Clean motion graphic on a deep navy background: a thin gold line draws a circle, and the circle settles into a simple house-key shape in the centre. Smooth, quick and minimal. Vertical 9:16 composition. Leave the top third empty. No text.
```

Text prompts suit trying out characters, styles or scenes freely. Starting from an image is best for continuity when you work with a brand character, a logo or an illustration [9]. Once you've built a mascot or a character, that means image-to-video every time.

Example: The same idea both ways. An agent wants the pool in her listing photo to ripple. From text, the model invents a pool that isn't hers. From the photo, it keeps her pool and her sun loungers and moves only the water, so image-to-video is the right call. For a scene that doesn't exist yet, like a skyline drawn as a rising chart, text-to-video is.

## What the good ones share

Across the examples that work, the AI is the least interesting part [1]. Four things repeat:

1. One audience. Each account talks to one kind of viewer [1].
2. A recurring format, so viewers know what they'll get before they press play [1].
3. A clear role for the AI. It presents, narrates or acts, and the ideas and editing do the persuading [1].
4. A next action, such as a product, a booking, a follow or the next video [1].

Qoves (@qoves), a facial analysis company, shows how far the second point goes. Every reel takes one face feature and explains it on a portrait, and 40 reels drew 31.4M plays, a median of 475K each [1]. One of its five formats has a 1.29M median, while its research stories that drift from the product sit at 184K [1]. For you that means one client question per video, in a few formats you repeat every week [1].

## Founder avatar examples

If you're the face of the business and can't film every week, an avatar of you reads scripts you approve [1]. Rowan Cheung of The Rundown AI uses one to post more short-form video with less filming. His insight, hooks and editing create the value, and the avatar handles production [1].

Roomvu makes avatar videos for real estate agents. Its lesson is to match the topic and the next action to one industry [1], which for you means one kind of client and one thing to book.

Example: A divorce lawyer writes four scripts on a Sunday. Her avatar posts one a week, each a 40-second answer to a question clients ask in the first meeting, and every video ends with "Book a first call".

Start with the [AI avatar guide](https://postmosis.com/vault/ai-avatar), or the [HeyGen avatar guide](https://postmosis.com/vault/heygen-avatar) for the setup itself.

## Faceless story examples

If you'd rather stay off camera, words on screen, objects or a simple character can carry the message [1].

Denny Kurien (@dkurien) explains one branding idea per video in his own voice while AI-made mockups fill the screen, one picture per sentence, each with a small serif title [1]. His face only appears in a small bubble at the start and end [1]. If you have the expertise and no time to film, borrow this: record the voice and give every sentence its own picture [1].

Saveo House (@saveo.house), a budgeting app, runs a daily AI-illustrated heist story where the comments vote on what happens next, and each part teaches one real rule about how cash gets tracked [1]. The account reached 132.6K followers [1]. What to borrow is a reason to comment today and a reason to come back tomorrow [1].

Example: A bookkeeper runs a weekly faceless series. One receipt per video, one sentence on what it means at tax time, one AI picture per sentence, her voice over the top.

The [faceless reels guide](https://postmosis.com/vault/faceless-reels) has the scripts and the shot list.

## Mascot examples

If one doubt stops your clients, a recurring character can answer it every week. Dexter Zee (@dexter_zee1) is a money-tips account starring a small 3D cartoon character in a black suit and blue sunglasses, with a voiceover and no human on screen [1]. Each video is one story about turning something cheap into money, and the cover is the hook, with a big figure next to the mascot [1]. His most-viewed reel reached 7.3M plays [1].

Borrow the recurring hero, one promise per video and a cover that states the result [1]. Design your own character rather than one that looks like an existing cartoon [1].

Smilestudio (@smilestudio__ss), a dentist's account, got its biggest video of the month from an AI-animated explainer with cartoon teeth fighting for space, then reposted it in other languages [1]. If some of your clients speak another language, one strong explainer can be dubbed for them [1].

Example: A career coach's mascot is a paper aeroplane in a tie, and this week's villain is a CV with forty bullet points shouting "More is better". The aeroplane folds it down to one page in eight seconds while the caption says "Send me yours".

The [brand mascot playbook](https://postmosis.com/vault/brand-mascot) walks through the hero, the villains and the 20-second episode [2].

## AI character examples

If your clients need to feel seen, a made-up person who lives their problem, with the same look in every video, does that job [1].

Wei Chen (@wealthbywei) is a personal finance account built on an older "wealth mentor" who appears to be AI-generated. He keeps the same face, the same suit and glasses on a private jet, in a Rolls-Royce and on a yacht, with no AI label [1]. Each video is one calm numbered list in one luxury setting, and every video points to his book [1]. Borrow the trusted role, the single repeatable format and the one offer. For the rest, use your own face or a clearly labelled character with no invented biography [1].

Bailey & the Bean (@thebaileytales) puts an AI-generated Shih Tzu and a toddler in music-driven story episodes organised into seasons, and the page never talks about itself [1]. Stories pet owners recognise earn the follow. One link in bio does the selling [1].

Example: A wedding planner's character is Priya, a bride who writes every decision on a sticky note and loses half of them. Each episode is one planning panic, and the planner's checklist turns up at the end.

The [consistent AI character guide](https://postmosis.com/vault/consistent-ai-character) shows how to keep the face the same from video to video.

## AI UGC examples

If you hand clients something they can see, an AI presenter can hold it up like a creator filming on their phone, with the product in hand and a casual hook [5]. On TikTok, dresscodelab.co posts outfit-formula videos linked to shopping [1]. The lesson carries to your practice: connect a useful video to the place where people book [1].

Accounts built on one recurring AI presenter and one topic work for a related reason: viewers know what to expect from the next video, so they come back for it [1].

Example: An interior designer's AI presenter holds a printed mood board up to the camera and says "This is what you get after one consultation," with the board in frame for all fifteen seconds and a link to book underneath.

The [AI UGC guide](https://postmosis.com/vault/ai-ugc) has the 15-second script and the rules for AI people in ads [5].

## Micro-drama and AI film examples

If clients replay the same argument before they hire you, a micro-drama tells that story in under a minute, with a cast and real dialogue [1]. To see what the tools can do over a longer film, a few independent shorts are worth watching [6]:

- Electric Pink by Henry Daubrez, made with Imagen 3 for the pictures and Veo 2 for the animation [6].
- The Prompt Floor by DrMachakil, a mockumentary about a fictional AI production team [6].
- The Space Between Us by Pierre Zandrowicz, made with Veo 3 and Gemini 2.5 Pro [6].
- JAILBIRD by Andrew Salter, which mixes cinematic framing with CCTV, POV shots and user-generated styles [6].

If you sell a service, study the mockumentary. Interviews are a format clients already trust, and talking heads are Veo 3's party trick [6].

The [AI short film guide](https://postmosis.com/vault/ai-short-film) has the six-beat script and a worked example.

## Study an example in four questions

For any video you like, write down four things before you copy anything [1]:

1. Audience: who exactly is this for?
2. Recurring format: what's the structure that repeats?
3. The AI's role: presenter, narrator, character or hero?
4. Next action: what should the viewer do after watching?

Example: Denny Kurien's videos, run through the four questions. Audience: people who care about branding. Format: one branding idea per video, one AI picture per sentence, each with a small title. The AI's role: it makes the pictures while he narrates. Next action: yours will be a booking, so you add one. Adapted for a family lawyer: one plain-English answer per video in her own voice, one AI picture per sentence with a short title, and "Book a first call" at the end.

Then paste the transcript into Claude or ChatGPT with this prompt:

Example breakdown prompt:

```
Here is the transcript and a description of a video I want to learn from: [paste]. Answer four questions: who exactly it's for; the structure that repeats from video to video; the AI's role (presenter, narrator, character or hero); and the next action it asks for. Then adapt the structure for a [what you do] whose clients are [who]. Keep my topic, my facts and my claims. Don't reuse any of the original script, names, likeness or voice.
```

Study the topic, the structure, the pacing and where it's posted. Never copy anyone's likeness, voice, claims or scripts [1].

## How to tell a video is AI

The tells that give away a fake are the same ones to check in your own clips before you post [7]:

- Eyes and faces: odd eye movement, few micro-expressions, or a face that's too symmetrical [7].
- Hands with too many fingers or odd shapes, or fingers that blend together [7].
- Objects passing through each other, such as a hand moving through a box [7].
- Gravity: people who float, or things that fall too slowly [7].
- Morphing: a held object melting into the hand, because the model struggles to tell the object from the body [7].
- Lips that drift out of sync as the video goes on [7].
- Length: the longer the clip, the more small errors stack up, so compare the first second with the last [7].
- Labels and logos that come out misspelt [5].

Spotting isn't always possible [7], so label your own clips anyway. TikTok requires a label on AI content showing realistic-looking scenes or people [8], and Meta requires its AI disclosure tool for photorealistic video or realistic-sounding audio made or altered digitally [10].

Postmosis makes short videos without filming: an AI presenter or your photo speaking your script, an explainer from AI pictures over one voiceover, or a stock montage, two a day. [See AI video](https://postmosis.com/features/ai-video)

## Common questions

### What are some examples of AI videos businesses post?

Founder avatars reading approved scripts, faceless explainers over AI pictures, mascots beating objections, AI characters, AI UGC presenters and one-minute micro-dramas [1]. Qoves, Dexter Zee and Saveo House each repeat one format in public [1].

### Which AI video format suits a solo professional?

Pick by the problem. One big objection suits a mascot, clients who need to feel seen suit a character, and clients who need to trust you suit your own face or avatar [2]. Most businesses end up using two of them, one for reach and one for trust.

### Text-to-video or image-to-video: which should I use?

If the exact look already exists, such as your portrait, a listing photo or your mascot's sheet, use image-to-video and describe only the motion. If the model has to invent the scene, use text-to-video [3].

### How long should an AI video clip be?

Draft at 4 seconds and publish social clips at 5 to 15 seconds [3]. Short clips are easier for AI to get right, and errors stack up as a clip runs on [7], so cut several short clips together for anything longer.

### Do AI videos need a label?

Usually, yes. TikTok requires a label on AI content that shows realistic-looking scenes or people [8], and Meta requires its disclosure tool for photorealistic AI video or realistic audio [10]. Labelling a cartoon too costs you nothing.

### How can you tell if a video is AI-generated?

Look at the hands, the eyes and the physics. AI video often shows extra or merging fingers, unnatural eye movement, objects passing through each other and movement that ignores gravity [7]. A misspelt label or logo is another giveaway worth checking [5].

### Can I copy an AI video I like?

Copy the format and leave the content. Study the topic and structure, the pacing and where it's posted, and never copy the likeness, voice, claims or scripts [1].

### Do AI videos work for a personal brand?

For reach, yes, when the AI has a clear role and the ideas and editing do the persuading [1]. For trust, a real person still has to show up somewhere between the video and the booking [2].
