5 Tips to Get Results Fast with QuickFrame AI Beta

Stop us if you’ve heard this one before: “I’ve got an ad to get out, and not a lot of time to do it!”. We’ve all been there. The good news? With QuickFrame AI beta, you can go from a small idea to a big on-brand video in a matter of minutes. Its intuitive and easy-to-use tools help marketers produce effective video ads faster (and with way less stress).

There’s a lot you can do with QF AI beta, but here are five tips and tricks to help you get better results on your very first try.

1. Get Prescriptive with Your Prompts

Vague prompts = vague videos. If you want your output to look like what’s in your head, specificity is your friend. When prompting QF AI (beta), be incredibly prescriptive, spelling out everything: your unique concept, setting, music, characters, dialogue, and actions the viewer will see. You can get more specific than that too, needling into camera movements, or the overarching mood you hope to strike. The more detailed you get, the closer your first generation will be to the final cut.

A helpful pattern to follow when writing prescriptive prompts:

Concept: “15s CTV spot introducing our new analytics tool.”
Look & Feel: “Bright remote working space, natural light, modern tech”
Characters: “2 coworkers, male and female, late 20s–30s, wearing business casual clothes”
Actions: “Walk-and-talk; one points to dashboard; quick smile beat”
Script: Character A: “The future is data-driven.” Character B: “And we’re rushing to meet it.”
Must-Haves: Clever opening hook, on-screen CTA, end card URL

Being specific doesn’t limit creativity — it focuses it. So keep it prescriptive. After all, QuickFrame AI can’t hit the mark if you don’t tell it where to aim.

2. Show, Don’t Just Tell

Building on the idea of being prescriptive, QuickFrame AI responds best when you’re incredibly specific on what to show, not just how scenes should feel. “Vibe” language (words like hopeful, bold, cinematic) absolutely has its place. It can quickly set a mood and gives QF AI beta a creative north star to build from.

But actionable direction that breaks down how you want that vibe expressed through characters or visuals will help QF AI beta visualize your intent faster. Think of it as bridging the gap between what’s in your head, and how the AI executes it: by feeding it more granular, concrete actions, you’re giving the model the clarity it needs to turn your direction into exactly what you envisioned.

Here’s a few ways to turn vibes into actionable direction:

Instead of “excited about the product”, try “grins, gestures to the screen, leans forward slightly.”
Instead of “deep in thought”, try “leans back, taps pen, stares at ceiling.”
Instead of ““feels inspired”, try “jots note, eyes widen, nods once.”

When you generate videos, you’ll be able to make edits in two separate views: Story and Editor.

If Story View is a way to see all the elements of your video at a glance, Editor View is where you can get incredibly nuanced with shaping and polishing your ad. Essentially (as the name implies) it becomes your editing bay, where you can trim clips to improve pacing, reorder scenes for a stronger narrative flow, or apply scene-specific prompts to improve moments without rebuilding the whole spot. You can also manually reposition any on-screen elements (like logos and URLs) and add or swap voiceover, music tracks, and more.

Editor view rewards the details: even the tiniest of trims can have an outsized impact on watchability and recall. The result: a finished ad that’s polished, engaging, and unmistakably your own.

4. Prompt, and Prompt Again (When Necessary)

Your first generation is the starting point, not the finish line. While you’ll aim for perfection from the jump, you likely won’t get there on your first prompt. Generative workflows shine when you treat outputs like drafts, so use a tight feedback loop when determining next steps:

Generate Video
Assess Creative
Identify Missing Pieces
Re-Prompt With What to Fix
Rinse and Repeat

Remember, it’s free to generate, so keep prompting until you drill down to the exact creative you had in mind. Small, targeted adjustments are incredibly effective, meaning you can be very precise with what you want to change (i.e. “The male character should have a red shirt”, “change the setting to a kitchen table”, etc.)

Also don’t be shy about experimenting. Maybe one prompt is uber-corporate, another pushes at the limits of QF AI (beta)’s funny bone, and a third takes a wild swing in a completely unexpected direction. Keep the winner, fold in any learnings, and iterate again. The goal isn’t endless tinkering; it’s fast, confident convergence on everything that works.

5. Experiment with Image-to-Video to Improve Specificity (and Consistency)

When you have a specific image you’d love to include in your ad (a product shot, a seasonal asset, a lifestyle still) feed it to QuickFrame AI using the image-to-video function. It’s one of the fastest ways to keep your visual identity specific, and consistent, across every scene, drastically reducing the moments where it’s close, but not quite.

This approach is especially strong for UI motion, packaging close-ups, and lifestyle shots; it’s an easy way to keep your creative consistent without regenerating everything every time.

Best practices for using image-to-video:

Use Quality Source Images: Well-lit, high-resolution, and neutral backgrounds work best.
Frame for Motion: Any static visual will work, but if possible, choose source images that suggest movement or interaction (e.g., a hand reaching for a product, a model mid-stride). This gives the AI more context to animate convincingly.
Avoid Visual Clutter: Keep backgrounds clean and uncluttered (unless you want that specific environment to be carried into the scene).
Crop It Up: Prompt tight crops for detail and wide shots to set the scene. Mixing these helps your final ad feel dynamic and cinematic.
