Behind the scenes from opening to closing, in quick warm clips.

  • Reel
  • Real people
  • 20–35 seconds
  • about $11 in AI credits
Made for Sudsy Paws, a fictional business, from its website.

What it is

A sequence of short clips through a working day at the business, with a casual voiceover and times on screen.

When to use it

Behind-the-scenes content for local businesses, studios and makers.

Why it works

Process content satisfies curiosity and shows the care that goes into the work.

How it plays

  1. start (about 4 s): Early morning: opening up, with the time on screen.
  2. work (about 12 s): Three or four clips of the work being made or done.
  3. customers (about 4 s): The moment a customer gets it.
  4. cta (about 4 s): Closing time and an invitation.

The hook: A time stamp and a surprising detail: '5:00am. The ovens are already on.'

How OpenPromo makes it

AI footage. Made with GPT Image 2, Grok Imagine Video 1.5, ElevenLabs v4, Lyria 3. It suits food, local services, craft, hospitality, fitness businesses. The writer takes every fact from your website, so prices, products and reviews are yours, and you approve the script before anything is made.

Questions

How much does the day in the life template cost to make?

Each one costs about $11 in AI credits, paid at cost with your own key. OpenPromo adds no markup. Writing the script is a few cents, and you see it before anything is made.

Rendering again after an edit only pays for the scenes you changed.

Do I have to write the script?

No. Add your website and OpenPromo reads it: what you sell, your prices, your reviews, your colours and fonts. The writer fills the template from that, and you can edit every scene, or give it an angle such as a product or an offer.

Which AI models make it?

GPT Image 2, Grok Imagine Video 1.5, ElevenLabs v4, Lyria 3. They were picked in a side-by-side test of the image, video and voice models available, on quality for the price.
