🎬 Video Ad Brief — Local Landscaper (Wes)

One 10-second AI video ad sample · luxury backyard remodels · Dallas–Fort Worth (Mansfield) TX · $30–40k avg ticket

The #1 rule — this is pass/fail.
Make it feel like a real middle-aged Texas landscaper who posted a phone reel that got 10 likes. RAW + PERSONALITY over polish. If it looks "too perfect / robotic / AI / like a TV commercial," Wes walks. He is NOT sold — this sample is the close. Personality > production value, every time.

Vibe: owner talking to camera in front of a finished project, naming the neighborhood ("this is Jason with Heads Up Landscaping, we're over here in the Heath, Rizzo Lakes subdivision…").
⚠️ AVOID our usual Max Systems AI-SEO avatar ads — those are the "too perfect / robotic" ones Wes criticized.

👤 Avatar (exact spec)

Middle-aged white man ~45yo · jeans + button-up shirt · hat (required) · no slicked/perfect hair · cowboy boots with jeans over the boot · trustworthy owner vibe — not a model, not the young owner, not a girl for this one.

🌵 Setting (must read as TEXAS)

Real finished luxury backyard — outdoor kitchen / pergola / paver or travertine patio. Texas home look (brick, roof, plants, trees) — no California palms. Pull a reference house from Zillow near Walnut Creek Country Club, Mansfield TX (upscale golf-course neighborhood everyone knows). Green-screen / Motion-Control the avatar in front of the real project.

🛠 How to generate

Use Kling AI → Motion Control 3.0 (the method from the call at 15:41): take the copy-ad's video as the motion reference, sub in our 45yo TX avatar so body language + pacing feel human, then change the background to the Texas backyard. Captions minimal or none (raw reels usually have none). Export 9:16 vertical, 1080×1920.
