Social video ads in Swansea: two forecasts, a freshers' week and a winter parade
In Swansea a sunny Saturday can send people towards Mumbles and Gower, a wet one keeps them in the city centre, and September brings new students to Singleton Park and the Bay Campus. Notlith makes short social video ads remotely from your photographs and brand files, with creative direction, AI-assisted motion, editing, colour and sound, prepared so your campaign can switch as quickly as the local weather does.

Mumbles or the city centre, decided by the forecast
On a dry weekend, people in Swansea head along the bay to Mumbles, Langland and the Gower beaches; on a wet one they stay in town, around Swansea Market, the Quadrant and the Kingsway. A kiosk on Mumbles Road and a café near the market are chasing the same people on opposite forecasts.
For a business on either side of that split, we prepare a dry-day and a wet-day version from the same product shots and branding, so switching in your ad manager takes minutes. The dry version names the stretch of coast you actually serve; the wet one leads with shelter and opening hours. Neither shows weather your photographs do not contain: the mood comes from colour, music and copy, never a generated sky.
September arrivals at Singleton and the Bay Campus
Swansea University welcomes students at Singleton Park and the Bay Campus, and University of Wales Trinity Saint David has its own campus on the SA1 waterfront. Gyms, takeaways, phone shops and letting agents can use the first weeks of term to introduce themselves.
An advert for new arrivals has a few seconds to say what you offer, where you are in relation to their campus and what the opening deal is. We avoid university logos and campus imagery unless you have permission, and build the ad from your own premises and products.
Christmas weeks in the city centre
Swansea holds a Christmas parade through the city centre in November, and the run-up to Christmas brings shoppers to Oxford Street, the Kingsway and the Quadrant. Retailers can use paid social to give those visits a destination: a window display, a late-opening evening, a gift range.
We plan a short sequence that starts weeks ahead and ends on the last delivery or collection date. Event names appear only as the organisers publish them, and any parade imagery comes from licensed photographs; otherwise your shop and stock carry the advert alone.
Captions that spell Ystumllwynarth correctly
Social video is often watched without sound, so captions do the selling. In Swansea those captions may contain Welsh place names, from Ystumllwynarth for Oystermouth to Treforys for Morriston, and a misspelling in a tiny subtitle is noticed by exactly the people you want to reach.
We take every name from your own copy or an official source and lock captions before the motion is finalised. If you run separate Welsh and English adverts, each gets its own text layer and its own review by a speaker you nominate.

Plan the details
Which formats will we receive?
The vertical, square and horizontal versions your placements need, agreed in the quote. Each is composed for its frame rather than cropped from one master at the last minute.
Can you change an advert during a campaign?
Yes, within the revisions set out in the quote. Building variants in advance, such as sunny and rainy versions, makes changes quicker.
Do you run the ads for us?
No, we make the creative. Your team or your agency handles targeting, budget and publishing on each platform.
Will the ad be labelled as using AI?
We tell you where AI was used and follow each platform's disclosure rules, so you can label the ad correctly when it is published.
