FIBO Ad Director

Inspiration

Creating high-quality advertising visuals traditionally requires professional photographers, designers, studio setups, and multiple rounds of iteration. This process is expensive, time-consuming, and often inaccessible to startups, indie creators, and small businesses.

I was inspired by the idea of giving brands the same level of creative control as a film director — not through vague text prompts, but through structured, precise instructions. By combining cinematic controls with AI, I wanted to make ad creation faster, more controllable, and production-ready.

What it does

FIBO Ad Director is an AI-powered advertising creation platform that allows users to generate, refine, and repurpose ad visuals using structured, JSON-based creative control.

The platform uses the FIBO image generation model to produce high-quality, photorealistic advertising images. Instead of relying on free-form prompts, I designed the system so users define their creative intent through a structured JSON schema, enabling consistent and repeatable results.

Key capabilities

  • Brand-based ad generation using structured inputs
  • JSON-native prompt generation for the FIBO image model
  • Studio-style refinement with cinematic camera controls
  • Community feed of generated ads
  • Image-to-video generation (8-second clips) using Veo 3.1
  • Automated social media post generation for multiple platforms

How I built it

Coding

I used an AI agentic website builder called Lovable to design and implement the user experience. All API integrations, ideating and the product architecture as implemented by me.

Image generation

  • I used the FIBO Image Model for all ad image generation
  • I designed JSON-structured prompts that define:
    • Object placement
    • Background context
    • Lighting and realism
    • Camera body, lens type, focal length, and aperture
  • This approach ensures deterministic, production-grade outputs rather than random generations
    AD concepts were handled by chatgpt-o4-mini and post making is done by lovable AI

Video generation

  • I integrated Veo 3.1 to convert generated images into short, cinematic 8-second videos using prompt-based motion instructions

Backend

  • I used Supabase Edge Functions to handle:
    • Secure API requests
    • Prompt transformation
    • Asynchronous generation workflows
    • Error handling and retries

Frontend

  • I designed a director-style UI inspired by professional creative tools
  • The application is organized into:
    • Ad Director (brand intake and concept creation)
    • Studio (manual refinement and camera control)
    • Feed (community gallery and iteration)
    • Explore (inspiration and discovery)

Feed interactions

When hovering over an image in the Ad Director Feed, users can perform four key actions:

  1. Open the image in Studio and refine it further
  2. Open Visual Controls to adjust camera and scene parameters
  3. Generate an 8-second video from the image using Veo 3.1 with a custom prompt
  4. Generate customized social media posts for platforms like Instagram, Twitter (X), and LinkedIn, including alternate captions and actionable marketing suggestions

Challenges I ran into

API errors

  • I initially ran into incorrect or unsupported endpoints during integration
  • Handling 404 and 500 errors from external AI services required careful debugging
  • I had to prevent blank UI states when generation failed

Model limitations

  • Image and video models require different pipelines
  • Not all models support the same feature sets
  • Managing latency and asynchronous job completion was challenging

Accomplishments that I’m proud of

  • Successfully integrating the FIBO image generation model with a JSON-native prompting system
  • Building a director-style workflow instead of a simple prompt-based tool
  • Enabling image-to-video conversion without requiring manual video editing
  • Automating multi-platform marketing content from a single visual asset
  • Delivering a complete end-to-end creative pipeline within hackathon constraints

What I learned

  • Structured prompts consistently outperform free-form prompts for professional use cases
  • Creative constraints significantly improve AI output quality
  • Robust error handling is critical for AI-driven applications
  • Ad creation is not just about visuals, but also about distribution and messaging

What's next for FIBO Ad Director

  • Adding multi-scene and storyboard-based video ads
  • Introducing brand style locking for visual consistency
  • Enabling A/B testing for generated ad creatives
  • Supporting one-click publishing to advertising and social platforms
  • Building team collaboration and approval workflows
  • Expanding support for additional AI video and image models

UPDATE FOR API KEY

I have made a small change in my project since my Bria API key 14 day free plan ran out Hence, I have added a feature where users enter their own key and the image generation and product generation run on that No major changes to the feature have been done Thank you, Nandan
