How to create sizzle reels

Senja's sizzle reels creator uses our AI Director to automatically transform your video testimonials into compelling, ready-to-share sizzle reels.

Start creating

• Go to your Studio page: https://app.senja.io/studio

• Click Sizzle Reels tab

• Click Get started

  

Workflow overview

You will go through 4-steps process:

1. Duration: Choose the length of your video

2. Testimonials: Select the videos you want to include

3. Direction: Tell our AI Director the story you want to tell

4. Review: Customize and download your finished sizzle reel

Step 1: Choose the duration

First, decide how long you want your final sizzle reel to be. This helps the AI Director pace the video and select the best clips to fit the timeframe.

• On the Create a sizzle reel ✨ screen, you'll see several duration options.

• Click on your desired length (e.g., 30 seconds, 45 seconds, 1 minute).

• Click the Continue button to proceed

  

Step 2: Select your testimonials

• Choose the source material for your video (you can choose up to 5 videos)

  

• Click Change Selection if you want to use different testimonials

  

Step 3: Direct the AI

This is where you give our AI Director creative instructions. You can choose a pre-defined "feel" for the video and even provide a custom focus.

Choose a Feel

Select a theme that best represents the tone and style you're aiming for.

• Before and after: Creates a narrative focused on the transformation your customers experienced.

• Pains: Highlights the problems and challenges customers faced before using your product.

• Outcomes: Focuses on the positive results, benefits, and successes customers achieved after using your product.

• Highly emotional: Creates a video that pulls at the heartstrings by focusing on the emotional impact of your product.

Focus (Optional)

For even more customization, you can give the AI Director a specific text prompt. Use the Tell the AI director what to focus on text box to guide the narrative.

• Example prompt: "Create an energetic video focusing on how our product saves users time and makes their workflow easier."

Once you've made your selections, click Continue.
