How It Works

The TVC Ad API uses a 3-step AI pipeline to generate professional TV commercial videos:

Storyboard Script — AI generates a 9-scene (SC1-SC9) storyboard description based on your ad theme
Storyboard Image — AI creates a 3x3 grid black-and-white storyboard illustration
Video Generation — Sora 2 generates the final ad video from the storyboard image

The generate endpoint returns immediately after starting the pipeline. Use the check-status endpoint to poll for progress and results.

Generate TVC Ad

POST /api/sora-2-tvc/generate

Headers

Header	Value
`Content-Type`	`application/json`
`Authorization`	`Bearer YOUR_API_KEY`

Body Parameters

Parameter	Type	Required	Description
`adTheme`	string	Yes	The ad theme or topic (e.g., "Nike running shoes")
`referenceImageUrl`	string	No	Public URL of a reference image for style guidance
`voiceoverScript`	string	No	Voiceover script text for the ad
`videoDuration`	string	No	`10` or `15` (seconds, default: `10`)
`aspectRatio`	string	No	`portrait` (default) or `landscape`

API calls only accept referenceImageUrl (public URL). Base64 image upload is not supported via API.
