Creator Brief — Father's Day
Father's Day Campaign

Content that
celebrates dad.

Thank you for joining the Number Artist Father's Day campaign. This brief gives you everything you need to create content that feels genuine, looks great, and performs as a paid ad.

Number Artist makes paint-by-numbers kits for the whole family — full-size kits for adults and mini kits for kids. Every kit comes with everything needed to create a beautiful painting from scratch. For this campaign, the finished painted kit must be visible in every video.

📅
Father's Day is June 21st — content needed as soon as possible. Kits ship from our USA warehouse and arrive within a few days. Please start filming as soon as your kit arrives. Note: custom kits are not available for this campaign.
🎥

You must appear on camera in every video — show your face and yourself actively painting and/or holding the finished result. Videos without the creator visible will be sent back for reshoot.

Your Angle

Two stories.
One celebration.

Choose the angle that fits your situation. Both are valid — pick the one that feels most natural and authentic to you. The most important thing is that the finished painting appears in your video.

Angle A

Spending Time Together

Paint together as a family activity for Father's Day. Show the shared experience — painting side by side, working on it together, or surprising each other with the result.

Best for: Dads painting with their kids • Moms painting with their partner / kids' dad as a family activity
Angle B

Gift for Dad

Paint a kit as a gift for your father. Film the painting process and end the video with the moment you give it to him — in person or over a video call if you're in different cities.

Best for: Anyone giving the painted kit as a Father's Day gift to their dad • Works for both male and female creators
🎨

The finished painting must be shown in both angles. Whether it's the gift being handed over or the family admiring the completed canvas — the finished kit is the hero of the video. Do not end the video before showing the completed painting clearly on camera.

What We Need

2 videos.
One honest story.

Every video should feel natural, authentic, and engaging — not like a commercial. The best-performing content feels like a recommendation from a friend, not a sales pitch.

Voiceover Video

Walk the viewer through your genuine experience — painting process, the shared moment or gift reveal, and your personal voiceover. This is your story in your own words.

Video 2

Lifestyle / No Voiceover

Visual and atmospheric. Let the footage speak. Aesthetic shots of the process, the finished painting, and the Father's Day moment. Background music is fine.

Angle A — Spending Time Together

Paint together.
Make a memory.

This angle is about the shared experience of painting as a family activity for Father's Day. Show the joy of doing something creative together — whether you're a dad painting with your kids, or a mom setting up the activity with the kids' dad.

Required structure

  • Setup / unboxing — Show opening the kit together, laying out the paints and canvas
  • Painting together — Both creator and child/partner in the frame, actively painting
  • Genuine moments — Reactions, laughter, concentration — the real emotion of the activity
  • The finished kit — Close-up of the completed painting. Both people in frame admiring it or holding it up
  • End strong — Display the finished painting somewhere in your home or hold it up proudly together

Voiceover ideas (Video 1)

  • What made you choose painting as a Father's Day activity
  • How the kids / family reacted to painting together
  • What it felt like when you saw the finished result
  • Would you do it again? Why?
What makes this angle work

"The best moments in this angle are the unplanned ones — a kid choosing the wrong color, dad being more focused than the children, the chaos of everyone painting at once. Let the camera capture what actually happens."

Angle B — Gift for Dad

Paint it.
Give it.

This angle tells the story of painting a kit as a gift for your dad. The video must end with the gift moment — handing it over in person, or a video call reveal if you're in different cities. The emotional payoff at the end is what makes this content powerful.

Required structure

  • Unboxing — Open the kit, show what's inside, start the process
  • Painting process — Multiple stages, close-ups of the canvas coming together
  • The finished painting — Clearly shown before the gift moment
  • The gift moment — End the video with giving the painting to dad in person, or showing his reaction over a video call
📞

Different cities? Use a video call. If you don't live close to your dad, film his reaction when you show him the finished painting over a video call. A genuine long-distance reaction can be just as powerful — sometimes more so.

Voiceover ideas (Video 1)

  • Why you chose to paint something for your dad instead of buying a gift
  • The image you chose — why that one, what it means to you or him
  • What happened when you gave it to him — his honest reaction
  • What you'd tell someone who's thinking of doing the same
The ending is the hook

"Open with dad's reaction to the finished painting — then cut back to the blank canvas and walk through how it got there. The emotional payoff comes first; the process explains it."

Painting Process

The process is the
heart of it.

The painting process is the heart of the content — please do not skip it. The more angles and stages you capture, the more flexibility we have in editing. Short clips from different perspectives give us better transitions and allow us to cut tighter, more engaging ads.

Required shots

  • Close-up of hand and brush painting on the canvas
  • The numbered sections clearly visible at some point
  • Several different stages of progress — so we can create a smooth time-lapse showing the canvas coming to life
  • A time-lapse or sped-up clip of a painting session Highly encouraged
  • Your face at some moments — focused, relaxed, enjoying the process

Tips for capturing the process

  • Film at different stages — don't just capture the beginning and end
  • Get extreme macro shots — paint texture on canvas, brush detail
  • Film from multiple angles — overhead, side, front-facing
  • For Angle A: capture both people in the frame at key moments
👤

Show your face. Your face should appear throughout the video — especially during the painting process and the finished reveal. Viewers connect with people, not just products.

B-Roll & Hook Scenes

Film these
separately.

Film all of these clips separately from your main videos. These give our team options to create different ad variations. Each clip: 3–10 seconds.

E — Painting in Progress

Close-up of hand and brush on canvas at different stages

F — Extreme Macro

Very close-up of paint on canvas — texture and brushstroke detail

G — Time-Lapse

H — Finished Piece, Flat

Final painting laid flat on a clean surface

I — Finished Piece, Held

You (or you and dad / you and kids) holding the painting up proudly

J — The Gift Moment

K — Together Shot

Angle A only: Both creator and child/dad in frame, painting side by side

L — Relaxed Moment

Casual, calm shot of the painting session — everyone in their element

Hook scenes — 3 to 8 seconds each

Short clips used as scroll-stopping openers for ads. Film separately so our editing team has options.

The Reveal (strong opener)
  • Open with the finished painting held up to camera — then cut back to the blank canvas
  • Dad's reaction when he sees or receives the painting for the first time
  • Family admiring the completed canvas together
The Process
  • Extreme macro of brush on canvas — paint texture, numbered sections
  • Time-lapse of the painting coming from blank to finished
  • Kids and dad painting side by side — hands working on the canvas
The Payoff
  • Handing the wrapped painting to dad
  • The video call moment — showing dad the finished result remotely
  • The finished piece displayed in dad's home or held up proudly
Hook structure that works

"Show the emotional payoff in the first 3 seconds — dad's reaction, the family with the painting, the gift reveal. Then take the viewer back to how it started."

Video Quality & Audio

The technical
standards.

Small production choices make a big difference in how the video performs. Please review these before you start filming.

ResolutionFilm in 4K if possible. 1080p is the minimum we'll accept.

Camera lensClean your lens before every filming session.

No digital zoomPhysically move the camera closer for close-ups — digital zoom degrades quality.

Natural lightFilm near a window or outdoors. Avoid dark, yellow, or harsh artificial lighting.

BackgroundKeep the background clean and uncluttered — it keeps the focus on the painting.

StabilizationUse a tripod or stable surface. Avoid shaky footage.

Quiet audioRecord in a quiet environment — no background noise, echo, or distracting music during voiceover recording.

MicrophoneUse an external microphone if you have one — it makes a significant difference.

Dual voiceoverIf you record a voiceover separately, also record yourself saying the same text directly to camera — this gives us extra editing options.

Show your faceYour face must appear in all videos — especially during the painting process and the finished reveal.

Quick Reference

Do this.
Not that.

Do this
  • Show the finished painting in the first 3 seconds
  • Be on camera — actively painting, not just talking
  • For Angle A: have the other person genuinely in frame, not staged
  • For Angle B: end the video with the actual gift or reveal moment
  • Film in bright, natural light near a window
  • Include extreme macro shots of brush and paint on canvas
  • Show every stage of the painting process
  • Use personal, specific details in your voiceover
  • Film all B-roll clips separately for our editing team
  • Record duplicate audio — voiceover AND on-camera
Not this
  • Open with a wide shot of yourself talking to camera
  • End the video before showing the finished painting clearly
  • Skip the gift or reveal moment (Angle B)
  • Use exaggerated claims or overly enthusiastic sales language
  • Film in dim, yellow, or harsh artificial light
  • Skip the painting process and cut straight to the reveal
  • Use digital zoom for close-ups
  • Leave the background cluttered or distracting
  • Submit without watching the video back first
  • Write a script that sounds like an ad
