# AI Pet Product Photography and Video Ads - Kive > Pet product photos and short video ads from the product shots you have: toys, bowls, leashes and food in styled sets and home scenes, with dogs and cats in the frame and no pet shoot. ## Positioning 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 1. Save the products: one to four clean photos of each toy, bowl, leash or bag of food. 2. Pick the looks: styled product sets, pets at home and lifestyle scenes from the Ideas library. 3. Remix 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. 4. Animate the favorites: turn the best stills into short clips for Reels, TikTok and the product page. ## What a pet product shoot needs, built in - **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 ### 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. ## Customer proof "Kive gives us the independence to move from idea to visual decision in hours, not days." (Gaetano Russo, Founder, Deputa Madre).

Kive anchors your product to your saved photos and takes the animal, the scene and the light from a look in the Ideas library or your description, so you get a dog or cat in the frame without a handler or a shoot day. ### Can I keep the same dog across a campaign? Not reliably. Character models in Kive are made for people, so a generated dog or cat can look different from one image to the next. If one recognizable pet matters, describe it in detail and keep its shots in one session, or photograph the real animal for those hero images. ### Will the product look right? The product is anchored to your photos, so shape, color and label carry over. Check how the pet interacts with it — teeth, paws and leashes can blend into the product — and that the use shown is safe and realistic. ### Can I show my real pet with the product? Kive works from photos of products, not pets, so it does not reproduce a specific animal. For your own dog or cat, shoot the pet and use Kive for the product scenes around it. ### How much does a pet clip cost in Kive? Video is priced per second of output. Premium with sound costs 20 credits a second, so a 6-second clip is 120 credits. The Basic plan is $40 a month for 2,000 credits ($30 billed yearly), and Kive videos carry no watermark on any plan. ### Does it work for cat products, aquariums and small pets? Product scenes work for any pet category, since the product comes from your photos. Animals other than dogs and cats are less common in the Ideas library, so describe the scene in more detail and check the result closely. ## Links - [Human page](https://kive.ai/solutions/pet-product-ads) - [Social media content for every product, every week](https://kive.ai/solutions/social-media-content.md): related Kive solution. - [Product video ads from the photos you already have](https://kive.ai/solutions/product-video-ads.md): related Kive solution. - [Food and drink ads that keep your pack on the table](https://kive.ai/solutions/food-and-beverage-ads.md): related Kive solution. - [UGC video ads with your product in hand](https://kive.ai/solutions/ugc-ads.md): related Kive solution. - [Contact the Kive sales team](https://kive.ai/enterprise): custom plans, volume pricing, and procurement support for catalog-scale teams. - [Pricing](https://kive.ai/pricing): current plan and credit details. - [Sign up for Kive](https://kive.ai/signup) - [Kive homepage Markdown](https://kive.ai/index.md): complete agent-readable positioning for Kive.
