Before a fan pays for your content or subscribes to your Studio, they need a reason to. Teasers and Trailers are how you give them that reason. Each serves a different purpose and appears in a different place on the platform.

​

Teasers

A Teaser is a short, free preview attached to an individual Drop or Video.

• Length: 15 seconds
• Where it appears: Autoplays in the Circo feed as viewers scroll
• Who sees it: Anyone on Circo — including people who have never visited your Studio
• Access: Always free to watch, never behind a paywall

Teasers are your best organic discovery tool. Because they live in the feed and autoplay automatically, they introduce your content to potential fans who haven’t subscribed or paid yet.

​

What makes a strong Teaser

• Start with impact: Open on the most exciting, emotional, or surprising moment from the video.
• Match the tone: If your content is funny, the teaser should be funny. If it’s educational, give a compelling hook. Mismatch damages trust.
• End on a hook: Leave viewers wanting to see what happens next.
• Attach one to every paid Drop: Without a teaser, new viewers have no way to preview what they’re paying for.

​

Trailers

A Trailer is a video that sits at the top of your Studio profile, like a dynamic banner.

• Length: Up to 1 minute
• Where it appears: At the top of your Studio profile page
• Who sees it: Anyone who visits your Studio — subscribers, potential subscribers, and casual visitors
• Purpose: Introduces your Studio’s brand, style, and personality

Your Trailer is the first thing a visitor sees when they land on your Studio. Think of it as your elevator pitch in video form.

​

What to include in your Trailer

• A personal greeting that reflects your personality
• Examples of the type of content you create (clips, highlights, behind-the-scenes)
• A clear call to action — tell viewers to subscribe or unlock your content
