Scaling DTC Ad Creative with JSON Prompts and Veo 3

What happens when you give Loukas two weeks, a cleared calendar, and unrestricted access to Google’s new Veo 3?

You get a repeatable system for generating scroll-stopping ad hooks, without touching a camera.

In this episode of D2C Diaries, Loukas breaks down the exact prompt structure we now use within the agency group to turn ChatGPT JSON prompts into Veo 3-generated ads. Whether you’re scaling a best-performing hook or building a fresh creative system from scratch, this workflow will save your team hours and unlock new angles faster.

We cover:
 – How Loukas used JSON formatting to get better results from Veo 3
 – The key components of creating a high-performing AI hook
 – Real examples of hooks we’ve built and scaled across Meta
 – Why realism often kills performance (and absurdity wins).
 – How to use Veo 3 + ChatGPT to 10X creative volume in your ad account

We’re also giving away the exact JSON prompt template we now use in the agency.
