01 · Brief

A kids’ gel needs parents to remember a one-syllable name. This cut turns the wordmark into the environment, keeps the star tube consistent in every shot and holds the product line (strawberry gel · 3+) on the close-up.

02 · Hook: the thumb-stop

Frame one is an amber gel macro full of bubbles: pure texture, no product yet.

03 · Angle

Bold repeating-wordmark design: the name becomes the set, so the brand is on screen in every frame.

04 · Structure, beat by beat

  1. Hook · 0.0–1.5 s

    Amber gel bubbles in macro: texture first, no brand yet (the tube arrives at 2.0 s).

  2. Problem / setup · 1.5–3.7 s

    The tube appears and the star on the label lights up.

  3. Brand memory · 3.7–12.8 s

    Tube over a wall of repeating PLIP wordmarks, 3D letters, a glow on a pedestal: brand memory by repetition.

  4. Detail · 12.8–14.5 s

    Detail: “strawberry gel · 3+” on the tube.

  5. End frame · 14.5–15.1 s

    Tube on the wordmark wall: end frame.

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 bubble macro against the tube-and-star hero as frame one, judged on 3-second views per impression.

  2. B

    Grade: the amber look against a strawberry-red grade, 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.
