In short

AI video: the key points

Updated

Do you have to disclose that a video was made with AI?

Yes, as soon as it looks real. YouTube asks creators to disclose realistic content made or altered with AI. TikTok asks for AI-generated content showing realistic images, audio or video to be labelled. And the European Artificial Intelligence Act (Article 50) requires deepfakes to be disclosed. We prepare these labels with you, platform by platform, before anything goes live.

Can an AI video replace a shoot?

Not always. AI is useful for producing lots of variants quickly, showing what is hard to film and adapting a video into several languages. A shoot is still better when you need to show the real product in hand, a real place or a real person giving a testimonial. Many brands combine the two: we decide together, video by video.

On quotation. The price depends on the number of videos, the number of variants, the avatars and voices used, the languages and how much real filming is involved. We price it after a 30-minute call: you leave with a content plan, even if we don't end up working together.

It depends on the number of videos, the number of variants and the rounds of approval. With no shoot to organise, some of the constraints disappear, but every video still gets its script, its edit and its human check. We set the schedule with you when we prepare the quote.

The usage rights for the delivered videos are set out in the quote, as for all our videos. A real person's face or voice is never used without their consent, and AI avatars and synthetic voices must be cleared for commercial use.

TikTok, Instagram Reels and YouTube Shorts for organic content, TikTok Ads and Meta Ads for advertising. Every video is delivered in vertical 9:16 format, with the versions each platform needs.

Yes. Adapting a video into another language, including voice, subtitles and on-screen text, is one of the things AI makes easier. Every version is checked before delivery, like all our videos.

In short

An AI video agency creates videos with artificial intelligence instead of filming everything with a camera. Esekai, a video agency based in Paris, uses AI to produce short videos for TikTok, Instagram Reels and YouTube Shorts, AI UGC videos with avatars and video ads in variants to test, all written, edited and checked by its team.

What is an AI video for a brand?

It is a video whose images, voice or characters are created wholly or partly by artificial intelligence: a generated set, a product staged without a studio, an AI avatar presenting an offer, a synthetic voice-over, or filmed footage enhanced with AI. For a brand, the appeal is simple: produce more videos, faster, and test more ideas before choosing the ones worth pushing.

An AI video is still a brand video. It has to stop the scroll in the first few seconds, make sense without sound and give people a reason to act. That is where the agency makes the difference, not the tool.

AI short videos, AI UGC and AI video ads: what Esekai does

Three families of videos, which can be combined with our shoots:

  • Short videos made with AI: vertical videos for TikTok, Instagram Reels and YouTube Shorts, for organic content, written for each platform's conventions;
  • AI UGC videos and AI avatars: an avatar presents your product to camera, in the style of creator videos, so you can multiply angles and hooks;
  • AI video ads: creative ads for TikTok Ads and Meta Ads, produced in many variants (hooks, visuals, voices, formats) to find the ones that convert faster.

For videos shot with real creators, see our UGC agency. For filmed ads, see our creative ads.

AI video creation: AI plus the know-how of a video agency

AI makes images. It doesn't know what will sell your product. So every video goes through the same hands as our filmed videos:

  • the script, written by the team from your offer and your audience;
  • the hooks, several per video, designed to be tested;
  • the art direction, so the videos look like your brand rather than a tool demo;
  • the editing, pacing, subtitles and sound;
  • a human check of every video before delivery: visual consistency, on-screen text, pronunciation, brand compliance and AI labels.

That is what separates an AI video that serves a brand from an AI video everyone spots as AI straight away.

AI video or a real shoot: which should you choose?

We don't put AI everywhere. It is often the right choice to:

  • test lots of hooks and concepts before investing in a shoot;
  • turn one ad into many variants for TikTok Ads and Meta Ads;
  • show what is expensive or hard to film: a distant location, an impossible scene, a product that hasn't been made yet;
  • adapt the same video into several languages.

A real shoot is still better when trust depends on the real thing: the texture of a dish, a product in hand, a place your customers will visit, a person speaking in their own name. For a customer review, we always prefer a real person to an avatar. Many brands combine the two: AI to test fast, filming for the videos that carry the brand.

We shoot those videos in our video studio in Paris or at your premises, anywhere in France.

Our AI video creation process, step by step

  1. The 30-minute call: your goals, your products, your platforms, and what should be filmed or created with AI.
  2. Strategy and scripts: the concepts, the hooks to test and the brand's tone of voice, approved with you.
  3. Creation with AI: images, avatars, voices and sets, guided by our art direction.
  4. Editing and review: pacing, subtitles and sound, then a human check of every video and of the AI labels.
  5. Variants and tracking: variants by platform and by hook, then tracking of views, completion and engagement to improve the next videos.

Why entrust your AI videos to a short-form video agency?

Because the tool isn't enough. Before using AI, Esekai is a short-form video agency: more than 350 brands supported and an in-house team in Paris that writes, shoots and edits vertical videos for TikTok, Instagram Reels and YouTube Shorts. What keeps people watching a short video to the end doesn't change with AI; it simply lets you produce and test more of them.
