AI video ads · Los Angeles

I make AI ads for my tire shop.
Now I show you how.

No film crew, no studio. Just a laptop, the right AI tools, and characters that talk like real people.

Where it started

The Morning Rush

I posted $49 tires and asked myself: what if the whole city showed up? That became a 60-second cartoon of my own shop: me, my cowboy mechanic, and the girl at the front desk, talking like we really do.

It took off. Since then, the question in my comments is always the same: how do you make these?

So now I show the whole process: the script, the prompts, the mistakes, and what each video cost.

How it works

Four steps, every video

1

The story

One sentence, eight questions, and ChatGPT writes the script. Characters talk; no narrator.

2

The frames

One picture per scene, same characters every time, set in your real place.

3

The talking clips

Each picture becomes a short clip with real lip-sync. Calm camera, one speaker at a time.

4

The edit

Trim to the words, big captions, music under the voice, and your real prices typed by you.

Who's behind this

A real tire shop owner

I run The Tire Plug, a tire shop on East Olympic Blvd in Downtown LA. I'm not an animator and I never went to film school. I learned this by making ads for my own shop, and I share everything that works and everything that doesn't.
