If you want a CGI ad videofor baked goods in stop motion style (step-by-step dough development) without real filming and without complex editing, the practical solution is to combine two tools:
Gemini to write the script and generate accurate prompts for each shot, andFlow to convert these shots into a ready-made animated video. You can start for free, subject to each platform's limitations.
✅ The idea that works in the trend
Instead of a "long video," create a series of short shots with the same shooting angle:
- Fixed camera from above (top-down)
- Elements always in the center of the frame
- Stop motion transitions: each shot is a clear "step forward"
️ ⚙ Practical steps
- 1) Prepare the idea in Gemini
- Write down the type of baked goods: croissants, manakish, cookies...
- Ask it to divide the idea into 8–12 short stop motionshots.
- Ask for a prompt for each shot with the same style, angle, and lighting.
- 2) Generate the images for the shots (optional but gives you stability)
- If you are using an image generator such as NanoBanana:
- Generate an image for each step using the same template (same angle and background).
- 3) Move the shots within Flow
- Upload the images in sequence.
- Request a very simple movement:
- "Grow/Transform" without moving the camera
- Smooth stop motion transitions
- Export the video in 9:16 vertical format for Reels and Shorts.
🧩 Ready-made request template for Gemini (copy and edit the type of baked goods)
“I want a 12-second stop motion scenario for baked goods (write the type), with a fixed camera from above, a light wood background, and the elements always in the center of the frame. Divide it into 10 short shots. Write a detailed description for each shot that can be used as a prompt for an image generator, with consistent lighting and style, and no text within the images."
Prompt ready for Flow (if you upload the step images)
“Turn these sequential images into a 12-second vertical 9:16 stop motion video. Keep the camera completely still without moving. Make the elements move step by step towards the center of the frame as if they are forming and growing. The movement should be smooth and light, without shaking or distortion, while maintaining the same lighting and background.”
🎯 Golden Compass Tip (for a professional-looking result)
- Always keep three things constant: the shooting angle + the background + the lighting.
- Don't ask for too many movements: successful stop motion depends on "simple progress" in each shot
- Make the ending strong: a shot of the final product "ready to eat" with light steam and an appetizing shine.
