01 · Brief

Natural deodorant is a category of near-identical sticks and ingredient lists. This cut sells the feel instead: every frame is texture, and two supers (Falls different, Soft touch) do the talking with the sound off.

02 · Hook: the thumb-stop

Frame one is a furry hand lifting the stick out of a bed of purple pom-poms: texture before claim.

03 · Angle

Tactile macro film: fur, lilac and pink kinetic type turn “aluminium-free” into a feeling you can see.

04 · Structure, beat by beat

  1. Hook · 0.0–1.5 s

    A furry hand lifts the stick out of purple pom-poms: texture before claim.

  2. Problem / setup · 1.5–3.4 s

    “FALLS DIFFERENT”: the stick drops through the frame.

  3. Texture · 3.4–7.8 s

    Cap macro, a rim-lit silhouette, fur in extreme close-up: the “soft” claim made visible.

  4. Claim · 7.8–9.2 s

    Claim super “SOFT TOUCH” over the label (aluminium-free · fig & neroli).

  5. Pack shot · 9.2–10.4 s

    The stick lands in the fur: pack-shot end, no line.

Not in this cut: an offer. In a Sprint the offer (price, bundle, guarantee) is a test variable: a 1.5 s card swapped in before the end frame.

05 · What we'd test first

  1. A

    Opener: the fur lift against the falling stick as frame one, judged on 3-second views per impression.

  2. B

    Claim: SOFT TOUCH against the ingredient line (aluminium-free · fig & neroli) as the end super, judged on hold to the end.

06 · What a Sprint does with it

  • Thumb-stop first. The first 1.5 s decides whether anyone sees the rest. We cut three openers from this master and let the account pick, instead of arguing about taste.
  • One master, many cuts. This master becomes the 9:16, 4:5 and 1:1 set in two lengths, captioned and named for your ad account, so testing velocity is limited by budget, not by edits.
  • Ahead of creative fatigue. New hooks and angles land before frequency climbs on the winner, so the account is never waiting on the next shoot.
  • Judged on CAC, not on likes. Each cut has a hypothesis and a kill rule; the day-21 read-out says which one lowered your cost per acquisition and which one lost.
