Individual skill
product-photo-to-video
Turn a product photo into a product video ad that keeps the real product. Builds TikTok, Reels, TikTok Shop b-roll and listing videos from one to three product photos: a product truth sheet (label text letter by letter, colours, parts), a cut-out, a hero still, an 8–12 panel storyboard sheet, then one multi-shot Seedance 2.5 or Kling 4 clip with a PRODUCT LOCK block, a repair pass on drifting shots, and the real packshot composited on the last second. Formats: hands-only ASMR unboxing, macro pour or texture, ingredient burst or exploded view, product in use, 360° loop, product in a hand, apparel try-on. Never ships a Ken Burns slideshow. Use when someone has product photos and wants a product video, packshot animation, unboxing, ASMR product video, listing video or AI b-roll without filming. NOT for a person talking about the product (use ai-ugc-ad-video), TikTok Shop presenter videos (use tiktok-shop-video), or still listing images (use a product-photo skill).

# Turn a product photo into a product video ad
What wins in late 2026 is one impossible but tactile moment built around the real product: a macro pour, a lid snap, an ingredient burst, a hands-only unboxing. What fails: logo-first "cinematic" b-roll, still-photo slideshows (TikTok Shop bans them in shoppable videos), and any frame where the model rewrote the label.
Generation runs on varg (MCP `call_tool` or `POST https://api.varg.ai/v2/tools/{image|video}/call`). **Quote with `estimate_cost` and wait for a yes before each paid step.** A still costs cents to fix; a clip costs dollars, so approve stills first.
## 1. Product truth sheet (free, do it first)
From the photos and the product page, write:
```
PRODUCT: <name, size, e.g. "30 ml amber glass dropper bottle, gold cap">
LABEL (exact, in order): "NORTHLINE" / "VITAMIN C" / "30 ML"
COLOURS: body #F4A23B, cap #C9A227, label #FFFFFF
