# Guides

> Short, practical guides to making video and ads with AI. Follow the steps with any tools, run them in the free and open source Vinci studio, or have the Vinci team make it for you.

Each guide goes with one of our short videos. They are written to work with whatever tools you already use.

>
> When a winning ad gets tired, you do not need a new campaign. Change one variable at a time and you get ten new tests from the same idea.

> [card] [Five things that break an AI product ad](https://docs.tryvinci.com/learn/keep-the-label-intact.md)
