Quick answer

The Advertising Video Production template is a Featured Template in Boards that guides advertising teams through a structured sequence of tools from image ideas to video output.

What This Template Is For

The Advertising Video Production template is a Featured Template for Boards on the RunDiffusion Platform (Formerly Runnit Platform), designed to guide advertising teams through a complete, end-to-end production workflow. Instead of starting from a blank Board, you begin with a structured sequence of tools.

This guide explains how to use the template step by step, when to move between tools, and where you can customize the workflow to fit your project or client needs.

If you’re new to Boards, review the Board overview to understand how Boards organize tools, assets, and collaboration.

Create Initial Image Concepts

The Image Asset Creation section is focused on speed, exploration, and creative direction.

Use Z Image Turbo for Photographic Concepts

Z Image Turbo tool card, described as photorealistic image concepting with good prompt control and natural photos

Start with Z Image Turbo when you need:

  • Realistic people and environments
  • Materials and texture exploration
  • Fast, photographic ideation

This step is ideal for early concepts that need to feel grounded in reality.


Use Nano Banana for Stylized Exploration

Switch to Nano Banana if your concept requires:

  • Illustrations or graphic styles
  • Stylized characters
  • Abstract visuals

This is commonly used to explore art direction before committing to a final look.


Refine and Assemble Final Images

Once a creative direction is approved, refine assets before moving into video.

Edit Products with Riverflow 2

Riverflow 2 tool card, described as a model for precision edits that is great for product and design work

Use Riverflow 2 to:

  • Modify product designs
  • Refine details
  • Prepare products for placement into scenes

This ensures products are ready for compositing.


Assemble Scenes with Nano Banana Pro

Nano Banana Pro tool card, described as a powerful image and edit model that creates images from 1K to 4K

Use Nano Banana Pro to:

  • Combine characters, products, and environments
  • Maintain consistent characters or products across images
  • Generate scene-consistent image sets for video generation

This step is critical if your images will be used for downstream video workflows.
Alternative option: Seedream V4.5


Upscale Images When Needed

Apply Topaz or Magnific as a final image quality pass to:

Topaz Upscale tool card, described as a true image upscaler that makes no generative changes
Magnific Upscaler tool card, described as capable of generative and non-generative upscaling
  • Increase resolution
  • Improve clarity
  • Apply optional creative sharpening

Only use this step when higher image fidelity is required.


Generate and Refine Video Concepts

The Video Asset Creation section moves your visuals into motion.

Explore Motion with Seedance 1.5 Pro

Seedance 1.5 Pro tool card, described as a fast video and audio model that is good for testing ideas

Start video work with Seedance 1.5 Pro to:

  • Test motion and pacing
  • Rapidly iterate on ideas
  • Generate low to mid-resolution drafts

This step is best for internal review and early client feedback.


Prepare Footage with Bria Video

Bria Video Background Remove tool card, described as changing backgrounds to green screen

Use Bria Video for:

  • Background removal
  • Green screen preparation

This keeps video assets modular for post-production.


Make Targeted Fixes with LTX 2 Retake

LTX-2 Retake tool card, described as editing dialogue, emotion, or action in videos

After feedback, use LTX 2 Retake to:

  • Fix near-final shots
  • Make selective edits
  • Improve continuity without full regeneration

This step saves time late in production.


Produce Final Client-Ready Videos

Generate Final Output with Veo 3.1

Veo 3.1 tool card, described as an advanced video model for client-ready creations

Use Veo 3.1 for:

  • High-quality, client-facing advertising videos
  • Premium visual fidelity
  • Optional audio generation

This tool is typically reserved for final delivery.


Add Audio with Pixverse Sound Effects

This ensures outputs meet client and platform standards.


Conclusion

The Advertising Video Production template gives advertising teams a clear, repeatable way to move from early visual concepts to final, client-ready video deliverables inside Boards on the RunDiffusion Platform. By following the structured flow from image ideation and refinement through video generation, editing, audio, and upscaling, you can keep projects organized while still allowing room for creative exploration.

Because the template is modular, it scales easily across different campaign sizes and client needs. Teams can iterate faster, collaborate more effectively, and maintain consistency across assets without rebuilding workflows from scratch for every project.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Who is the Advertising Video Production template designed for?

This template is designed for advertising agencies, creative teams, and in-house marketing groups that need a structured workflow for producing image and video assets. It works well for teams creating concept videos, social ads, product campaigns, and client-facing deliverables.


Do I need to use every tool in the template?

No. The template is intentionally modular. You can remove tools you don’t need, reorder them, or add additional image or video tools based on your project requirements. The default setup reflects a common advertising workflow, but it’s meant to be customized.


Can multiple team members work on the same Board?

Yes. One of the main benefits of Boards is collaboration. Multiple team members can access the same Board at the same time, generate assets, edit outputs, and iterate together without duplicating work or losing track of files.


When should I move from image creation to video generation?

You should move into video once:

  • A creative direction has been approved
  • Key characters, products, or scenes are consistent
  • Final image assets are refined and, if needed, upscaled

Tools like Nano Banana Pro help ensure image consistency before transitioning to video.


What is the difference between Seedance 1.5 Pro and Veo 3.1?

Seedance 1.5 Pro is best for early-stage video exploration, motion testing, and rapid iteration at lower cost. Veo 3.1 is intended for high-quality, client-facing final videos with premium visual fidelity. Many teams use both at different stages of the same project.


When should I use Bria Video and LTX 2 Retake?

Bria Video is typically used earlier to remove backgrounds or prepare green screen footage for compositing. LTX 2 Retake is used later in the process to fix specific issues in near-final videos without regenerating everything, saving time during revisions.


Is upscaling required for every image or video?

No. Upscaling with tools like Topaz, Magnific, or SeedVR Upscale is optional and should only be used when higher resolution or clarity is required for delivery. Skipping unnecessary upscaling can help manage time and token usage.


Can this template be reused for multiple campaigns?

Yes. You can duplicate the Board, rename it, and adjust tools for each new campaign. This makes it easy to maintain a consistent production structure across projects while adapting to different creative or client needs.


How does token usage work with this template?

Each tool consumes tokens based on the type of generation (image, video, audio, or upscaling). Because the template encourages early concept testing before final production, it helps teams use tokens more efficiently by reserving higher-cost tools for final deliverables.


Is this template suitable for final client delivery?

Yes. While it supports early ideation and testing, the workflow includes high-quality video generation, audio, and upscaling tools specifically intended for final, client-ready outputs.
