Creators: Difference between each type of content

🎬 As a UGC creator, you can produce a wide range of content on JoinBrands — each one has its own style, purpose, and use for brands. Here's a quick rundown of every content type available today so you know exactly what's expected.

Four photo certifications to choose from:

A selfie-style photo where you and the product are both in focus. Think natural and authentic — the kind of shot you'd take for yourself. 🤳
​

A clear, detailed photo that shows what the product can do or how it works — a close-up of the product in action.
​

The product being used in a real-life setting — think casually, effortlessly, as part of your day. Looking at the camera is optional. 🌿
​

A clean photo of just the product itself. Good lighting, simple background, and a shot that makes the product the star.

Seven video certifications available now — with Video Editing coming soon.

Like the photo version — but in motion. Record a short video that shows the product being used and what it does.
​

A positive review-style video where you share your honest (and enthusiastic!) take on a product.
​

An entertaining unboxing showing the packaging, the reveal, and your first-impression reactions as you open the product.
​

A step-by-step tutorial walking viewers through how to use the product — great for products with multiple features or steps.
​

A video shot against a solid-color background so the background can be swapped for digital environments in post-production.
​

A polished, ad-style video spotlighting a product or brand — think sharp visuals, a clear hook, and strong storytelling.
​

Personalized video content crafted to match a brand's specific product, message, or style. These come with detailed creative briefs from the brand.
​

Now that you know every content type available on JoinBrands, pick the ones that match your style, get certified, and start applying to jobs. The more certifications you have, the more opportunities you'll unlock. 🚀
