Pet product ads without wrangling a pet shoot
Styled sets, home scenes and short video for toys, bowls, leashes and food, made from your product photos. The dog sits still; the product stays yours.
Pet looks from the Kive library
Toy sets, pets at home and feeding scenes. Remix any of them with your own product, then animate it.
The pet shoot, minus the waiting for the dog
Pet brands sell on the moment a dog grabs the toy or a cat curls up on the bed. Those moments are the hardest to shoot: an animal handler, a dozen takes, treats on set, and a new day of shooting for every product in the range.
Kive starts from your product photos. Pick a look from the Ideas library — a styled toy set, a dog in a living room, a bowl on a sculptural plinth — and remix it with your saved product. The product is anchored to your photos while the scene and the animal come from the look, and an approved still becomes a short clip with sound.
How a pet campaign gets made in Kive
- 1Save the products: one to four clean photos of each toy, bowl, leash or bag of food.
- 2Pick the looks: styled product sets, pets at home and lifestyle scenes from the Ideas library.
- 3Remix and check: your product replaces the one in each look; check its shape and color, and that the pet interacts with it the way it would in real life.
- 4Animate the favorites: turn the best stills into short clips for Reels, TikTok and the product page.
Three pet clips, made in Kive
Each one started as a look in the Ideas library, remixed with a saved chew toy, then rendered as a short 9:16 clip with sound. Tap a clip to hear it.
Studio portrait: a dog holds an orange bone chew toy among sculptural toys.
Styled set: the chew toy on stone props against a pink backdrop, with soft moving light.
At home: a golden dog with the chew toy on a wooden floor by the fireplace.
What a pet product shoot needs, built in
Pet moments and product accuracy, without the handler.
Your product, not a lookalike
Generations are anchored to your saved product photos, so the toy, bowl or bag keeps its shape, color and label.
Pets in the frame
Dogs and cats come from the look or your description, posed with the product, no treats on set.
Styled sets and homes
Sculptural product sets, living rooms, gardens and parks from the Ideas library, remixed with your range.
Video with sound
Turn a still into a 4 to 15 second clip — a tail wag, a toy toss, a slow push-in — with sound in the same render.
People with pets
Add an owner to the scene, and keep the same person across a campaign with a character model.
The whole range in one look
Bulk generate runs every toy or flavor through one image direction on paid plans.
Start from a prompt
Three pet formats to adapt. Open one in Kive with the prompt filled in; nothing renders until you send it.
Dog with the toy
Make a 6-second vertical 9:16 video of a happy medium-sized dog holding my toy in its mouth in a bright living room, tail wagging, with sound. Keep the toy exactly the same. Natural room sound, no voice, no music, no text. Ask me which product to use.
Styled product set
Make a 4:5 image of my pet product on sculptural stone props against a soft pastel backdrop, with warm directional light and a few matching accessories. Keep the product exactly the same. No text. Ask me which product to use.
Feeding time
Make a 6-second vertical 9:16 video of an owner pouring food from my bag into a bowl while a cat waits beside it in a sunny kitchen, with sound. Keep the bag and label exactly the same. Natural kitchen sounds, no voice, no text. Ask me which product to use.
