ugc-video-creator — UGC-Style Product Video

Per Higgsfield's preset library, UGC is one of 9 curated video presets (alongside unboxing, product review, hyper motion, TV spot). This skill generates UGC-format videos for Amazon ad placements.

Prerequisites

Higgsfield MCP
Product reference image (clean PNG)
Optional: trained Soul Character for the brand (soul-character-train)
Research brief — for the talking-points / use case

Invocation

ugc-video-creator {ASIN}
ugc-video-creator {ASIN} --duration=15            # 6 / 10 / 15 seconds (default 10)
ugc-video-creator {ASIN} --model=kling-2-5-turbo  # default; or veo-3, sora-2, seedance-pro
ugc-video-creator {ASIN} --variants=3             # generate N variations (default 1)

Output

/tmp/cro-content/{ASIN}-ugc-{date}/video-{N}.mp4 + script + use-case map.

Phase 1 — Brief

Pull from research:

Top driver (the "this is great because..." beat)
Demographic — match Soul Character if trained
Use context — where they're using it

Phase 2 — Script (talk-track)

UGC structure (10s example):

0-2s: Hook — "I was looking for X..."
2-5s: Reveal — show product in use
5-8s: Benefit moment — the "wow"
8-10s: Soft CTA — "you have to try this"

For 15s: add a problem-setup before the hook. For 6s: drop the hook, lead with reveal.

Phase 3 — Generate

Higgsfield with UGC preset. Default model: Kling 2.5 Turbo for speed/quality balance. Premium: Veo 3.1 or Sora 2 for top quality.

Pass:

Soul Character (if trained for brand)
Product reference
Script
UGC preset
Aspect: 9:16 (mobile vertical) — Amazon SBV requires 16:9 OR 9:16; vertical performs better in feed
