Guide
A short video that helps an animal find a home
One short adoption video per animal in about 20 minutes — built from real photos and the volunteers' own notes, ready to share the same day.
What you need
- Real photos or short clips of the animal (no stock images)
- The volunteers' notes: age, character, what home suits it
- An AI video generator
Steps
Start from the notes, not the cute angle
What does a future family need to know? Age, energy, other pets, the one habit that makes it lovable.
Write one honest line
Thomas puts one true sentence on every card instead of a slogan. People trust the honest line.

Generate a 30-second video from real material
Give the tool the real photos and three short sentences. Never let it invent a different animal or a happier face.
Label it and check every frame
Say that the video is made with AI. Watch it once: if any frame shows something that is not the real animal, cut it.
End with one next step
How to visit, who to call, opening hours — one line, the same on every video.

You help an animal shelter write a 30-second adoption video script. Volunteer notes about the animal: [paste — age, character, health, what home suits it] The one true thing that makes it lovable: [e.g. snores, follows people around] How to meet it: [visit hours / phone / form] Write: 1) one honest headline line, max 10 words, no slogans; 2) a script of max 60 words in 3 short sentences, using ONLY the notes; 3) the closing line with the next step. Do not invent facts, do not promise health or behaviour you were not told, do not give the animal a name. Start with the headline.
What you end up with
A short, honest video for each animal that people actually finish — and one clear way to come and meet it.
Common mistakes
- Using stock photos or letting the tool invent a different-looking animal.
- Slogans instead of one true detail.
- No clear next step at the end of the video.
