This guide is for creators already accepted into the Casa Puffy program. Here are the practical rules, structure, and tips for recording videos that people will remember. to the fullest extent, have viral potential and help generate sales.
Read it carefully before you start recording. If you have any questions, ask us by email or through the channel we use. usually before uploading the videos.
What the algorithm looks for and how to play to its advantage
Our main goal is for people to stay until the end
1.1. Hook (second 0–1)
It's the first impression. If we don't stop scrolling at second 0, the video dies.
- Always start with the bear or the outfit already in the foreground .
- Example: the bear peeks out from below until it is in your hands in front of the camera.
- Example: the Puffy appears when you open a box or slide it into the plane.
- Avoid slow intros, long texts, or background shots without the bear.
1.2. Central + final content
Once we've stopped scrolling, your job is to maintain curiosity the whole time.
- Focus on one process: dressing the bear step by step, an outfit change, etc.
- That it always gives the feeling that "there's just a little bit more" to see the final result.
- The ending can be open (you cut just before the perfect result) or with mini CTA.
- Conclusion: If people watch it to the end and even watch it again, the video climbs much higher.
What a standard Puffy House video should look like
Most of the pieces we want are very short and have many mini-movements. Here is the general template you should follow by default.
2.1. Duration & cuts
Ideal duration: 8–10 seconds . You can go to 6–12 seconds, but try to stay within that range.
- Changes in position or action every 0.5–2 seconds .
- Avoid long static shots with nothing changing.
- Use close-ups of the bear, hands, and details of the outfit.
- If you're hesitating, accelerate : boredom arrives in tenths of a second.
2.2. Background & Framing
Puffy is the absolute star. Everything else should complement, never distract from.
- Use simple backgrounds: bed, sofa, clean floor, desk, blanket, etc.
- Avoid cables, clothes lying around, visual clutter, or overly busy backgrounds.
- Always try to record with good lighting (natural light if possible).
- Better vertical format (9:16) occupying almost the entire screen with the bear.
Minimum recording and editing quality
We're not aiming for professional cinema, but we do want a minimum standard for all the content on Casa Puffy. It looks clean, crisp, and pleasant.
3.1. Recording
- Record in the highest quality your mobile allows: ideally 4K at 60 fps .
- If your mobile phone does not support 4K, use the best available quality, always in portrait mode.
- Try recording with your phone supported (tripod, stand, stack of books) to avoid shaking.
- Repeat each action several times (e.g., zip up 4–5 times) to have options when editing.
3.2. Editing & publishing
- You can edit from your mobile phone (CapCut, InShot, Edits…) or from your computer.
- Export in the same quality you recorded: ideally 4K 60 fps .
- The important thing is not the tool, but consistency .
- Uploading audio directly from TikTok makes it easier to use trending audio.
- Schedule: The exact time is not critical. Practical: 1 video in the morning (10:00–12:00) and 1 in the afternoon (4:00 PM–8:00 PM). Avoid times like 3:00 AM.
Model 50% copied · 50% invented
To maintain consistency and maximize virality options, we work with a mix: Part of the videos are inspired by formats that have already worked, and part are original ideas.
4.1. “Copied” videos (tested format)
- Look for videos of teddy bears like Puffy House with many views (300k, 1M, 2M, 20M…).
- Look for references on @CasaPuffy and similar accounts (for example, re-uploads like @getahug).
- Re-record the same concept: same takes, same rhythm, but with your Puffy and your outfits.
- You can make several versions of the same video by only changing the outfit (5–10 versions is perfectly valid).
4.2. Made up videos (your personal touch)
- POV-style stories with the bear as the protagonist (you don't need to show your face).
- Mini routines: “I prepare my Puffy for sleep”, “look of the day for my Puffy”, etc.
- Soft ASMR: caresses, close-ups of the plush toy, sounds of fabric or zipper.
- Emotional moments: “when you are sad and your Puffy is waiting for you in bed…”.
The “Puffy House Formula” step by step
