Your morning routine, starring you
Morning routine videos are a staple of lifestyle accounts, and filming one means waking up early to set up the light. Save yourself once from a few photos and RefVid films it: soft sun in a calm kitchen, a pour-over coffee, then the first sip by the window.

Sign in, add your subject, and the studio opens with this template filled in. Your first 3-second clip is free: this template’s first shot.
Made from these photos
What you get
- You from 1–5 photos, the same face in both shots
- 2 shots, 5 seconds, vertical 9:16
- Soft morning light, slow and calm
- No watermark
Who it’s for
For lifestyle creators keeping a daily posting rhythm, for coffee, tea and homeware brands that want their product in a routine, and for anyone who likes the calm aesthetic but not the 6 a.m. setup.
The prompt
What the studio fills in for you. Your subject takes the place in brackets; you can change any of it.
- Shot 1Soft morning sun in a calm, minimal kitchen: [you] in a loose linen shirt pours hot water slowly over a pour-over coffee, steam rising, plants on the windowsill.
- Shot 2[you] sits by the window with the mug in both hands, takes a slow first sip and looks out, smiling softly. Warm light, shallow depth of field.
Make it yours
Change the drink
Write matcha whisked in a bowl, fresh orange juice, or tea in a glass pot instead of coffee.
Show your product
Add a product as a subject and write it on the counter, picked up during the routine.
Pick the room
Move the routine to a balcony with plants, a bedroom with linen sheets, or a small studio flat.
Photos that work best
People: 1–5 photos with the face clearly visible and evenly lit — a straight-on portrait first, then a three-quarter angle and a profile. Skip sunglasses, heavy filters and group shots; if a photo shows more than one person, the studio can’t tell who you mean.
How it works
- Sign in and add you from 1–5 photos. Each subject is saved once, so every later template takes one tap.
- The studio opens with this template filled in: both shots, 5 seconds, 9:16. Change any word you like.
- Press Generate. The clip is ready in a few minutes, without a watermark, and the same subject is there for the next one.
Questions
- Can my product be in it?
- Yes: save your product as a subject too and add it in the studio; write it on the counter or in your hand.
- Can I make a whole week of routines?
- Yes. You are saved once; change the drink, the outfit or the room for each day and generate again.
- How much does this template cost?
- A new RefVid account’s free credits cover one 3-second clip. The full template is 5 seconds: buy it as a single video, with no plan, or use credits from a pack or plan. Current prices are on the pricing page.
- How do I get the morning routine aesthetic?
- Soft window light, a calm neutral kitchen, slow movement and a warm drink. The template writes all of it in; change the room to match your feed.
