A 3D billboard ad with your product
RefVid’s 3D billboard template turns 1–10 photos of your product into a 5-second vertical clip in the style of the forced-perspective ads seen in Tokyo and Seoul: your product fills a curved LED screen on a city corner at dusk, turns, and seems to push out beyond the screen over the street below. Shape, colours and label come from your photos; the building and city are generated.

What you get
- Your own product, label and all, towering over a city street
- Curved corner screen, forced perspective, city at dusk
- No watermark
Who it’s for
For brands that want the look of a big outdoor campaign without buying one, for launch teasers and social ads that need a surprising first second, and for agencies showing a client an out-of-home idea before it is built.
The prompt
- A curved 3D LED billboard wraps the corner of a tall city building at dusk, seen from the street below: a giant [your product] fills the screen, turns slowly, then appears to push out beyond the screen’s edge over the street in forced perspective while traffic moves below. Anamorphic CGI ad style, the camera tilting up slowly, city lights.
Make it yours
Pick the city
Change the street to a neon crossing at night, a rainy Tokyo junction or a sunny shopping street in your own city.
Add a moment
Write that something spills out of the screen with the product: coffee beans, petals, water or confetti over the street.
Change the time
Set it at night with neon reflections on wet asphalt, or at noon for a clean, bright daytime look.
Photos that work best
Your product is blown up to building size and turns before it pushes out of the screen, so any blur or dust shows: use crisp, high-resolution photos against a plain background, with a front view and a three-quarter view for the turn.

Questions
- How do I make a 3D billboard ad from a photo of my product?
- Press Use this template, sign in and add your product from 1–10 photos. The studio opens with the 3D billboard shot written, and you can change the city and the time of day before you generate. Press Generate and the 5-second vertical clip of your product turning on the curved city screen and pushing out over the street comes back without a watermark.
- What are CGI billboard ads?
- Ads on curved corner screens drawn in forced perspective, so the product seems to come out of the building. This template makes a clip in that style for your own channels; it is not a booking on a real screen.
- What is 3D advertising?
- 3D advertising, or a 3D billboard, is a clip drawn in anamorphic perspective for a curved LED screen on a building corner, so that from the street the product seems to stand out of the wall. The illusion holds from one spot across the street; seen from the side, the picture looks stretched. Known examples are the giant cat above Shinjuku station in Tokyo in 2021 and the Paco Rabanne robot on the curved screen at Mercedes-Platz in Berlin at the end of 2021. This template films the screen from that one spot, so the effect holds on a phone too.
- How do I make the 3D effect stronger?
- The effect comes from the product crossing the edge of the screen, so let something break the frame: the product's tip, a splash, petals or confetti over the street. Keep the camera low on the street looking up at the corner, and add a three-quarter view of the product to its 1–10 photos so it can turn convincingly. A product that stays whole inside the screen looks like a flat ad.
- Can I use it to pitch a real billboard?
- Yes: agencies often mock up an out-of-home idea this way. Say clearly it is a concept, since the street and the screen are generated.
- Which products work best on a billboard?
- Products with a bold shape and a clear label: cans, bottles, sneakers, boxes and bags. Tiny items lose detail at billboard scale.
- How much does this template cost?
- Nothing to start: your invite comes with 300 free credits, no card needed, to spend on this video or any other.
