Jay Nwabueze: I made a STORM spec ad with AI

Jay Nwabueze's 61-second spec ad for a fragrance called STORM Elixir, made with Seedance 2.5, holds its characters, voices, sound and lighting almost perfectly. The one giveaway is a slow, unnatural turn as the footballer addresses the two women.

Jay Nwabueze's spec ad for a fragrance called STORM Elixir is almost entirely faultless from start to finish. A footballer in a Manchester United shirt steps into a lift, two coworkers mock his club in Korean and wonder what his perfume is, and he answers them in their own language: United might lose, but STORM never does.

The character consistency is incredible, and so are the voice fidelity, the sound effects and the lighting, which all hold up from the first shot to the last. The only minor giveaway is the moment he turns to address the two women, with a stance that moves a little slower than a person would and looks unnatural.

What sets it apart is the structure. A splash of humor and a story with a real payoff is exactly what helps a perfume spot stand out from the crowd of weird, abstract fragrance ads that rarely make sense. Thoroughly enjoyable, and a feat of the craft.

Jay says everything in it was made with Seedance 2.5 on VideoDraft, and he is building his own studio, Echezona Studios (@echezonastudios). If you have made something like it, tag us so we can take a look.
