Use this template How hook + demo reels work

Why this format works

Demos rarely stop the scroll on their own; a reaction does. This template generates a short AI clip of someone reacting in surprise and stitches it to your own demo footage, with the hook line on screen. Upload your demo, trim it to the moment that earns the reaction, and add an optional spoken hook.

What’s in the template

The copy and settings the hook + demo page starts with. Swap the parts in [brackets] for your own.

Format: Vertical (9:16)
Hook text: Wait… it does WHAT?
What the hook clip shows: Close-up of a young person looking at their phone, eyes widening in genuine surprise, handheld camera, natural window light, shallow depth of field, vertical framing
Hook text style: Highlight

Tips for using it

Keep the hook clip short (3-5 seconds) so the demo starts quickly.
Trim your demo to the single most impressive moment.
