Not sure whether CGC or Remix is your thing yet? No worries! Here’s a quick breakdown of both so you can figure out where you fit best.


CGC (Creator Generated Content)

Think TikTok, Instagram Reels, and creator-led social content.

CGC combines authentic storytelling, brand strategy, and live-action filming to create engaging videos for social platforms.

You'll probably love CGC if you:

  • 📱 Have experience shooting and editing social content

  • 🎤 Feel confident and natural on camera

  • 💡 Enjoy coming up with creative concepts and ideas


Remix (Motion Graphics)

Prefer editing over filming? Remix might be your thing.

Remix briefs involve transforming existing brand assets, such as videos, images, text, and graphics, into fresh video ads for platforms like YouTube, Meta, TikTok, and e-commerce.

You'll probably love Remix if you:

  • ⚡ Are confident using Adobe After Effects

  • 🎨 Enjoy bringing static assets to life with motion

  • ✂️ Have a strong eye for editing and visual storytelling


Can I do both?

Absolutely! You can choose whether you'd like to receive CGC briefs, Remix briefs, or both.

Simply head to your Creator Profile and toggle each brief type on or off whenever you'd like 🙌
