12 REPEATABLE SHORT-FORM FORMATS
Use a system, not a blank timeline.
THE 10-SECOND IGNITION
0–2s: dark frame. 2–4s: ignition. 4–8s: close-up. 8–10s: one clear takeaway and disclosed CTA.
THE FOUR-SHOT UNBOXING
Package, seal break, hilt reveal, first ignition. Capture each shot both vertical and horizontal.
THE THREE-DETAIL REVIEW
Pick three visible details, explain each honestly, and finish with who the product is best for.
THE COMMENT REPLY
Put the audience question on screen, answer it directly, then identify your approved link or code with disclosure.
THE SIDE-BY-SIDE
Compare two product types or colors using the same lighting, distance, and camera settings.
THE DUEL TEST
State the test, wear appropriate protection, clear the space, demonstrate responsibly, and recap what happened.
THE COSTUME REVEAL
Start with an unlit silhouette, reveal the original costume, then ignite the saber as the visual payoff.
THE BUYER GUIDE
Name the viewer goal, explain the relevant product category, and avoid promises beyond approved claims.
THE SOUND-ON DEMO
Use a quiet room, label the sound test, avoid replacing the native audio, and show the button press.
THE B-ROLL LOOP
Record hilt rotation, grip, blade, swing, and display shots. Reuse them under new voiceovers.
THE GIFT REACTION
Get permission to film, preserve the genuine reaction, and disclose any material connection.
THE WEEKLY SERIES
Repeat one recognizable test every week—color, sound, spin, scene, or creator challenge update.
FILMING + PROP-HANDLING SAFETY
Protect the people, the space, and the story.
- Clear the full swing radius, including overhead fixtures, walls, cameras, pets, and bystanders.
- Use a product intended for the demonstration you are filming; do not treat a display replica as a combat prop.
- Inspect the hilt, blade, retention hardware, charge level, and visible damage before action.
- Wear appropriate eye, hand, body, and foot protection for contact practice.
- Agree on choreography, speed, boundaries, and stop signals before a duel.
- Use a stable tripod and keep the camera operator outside the action zone.
- Do not film dangerous stunts, moving-vehicle use, public intimidation, or use near traffic, crowds, fire, water, or flammables.
- Supervise minors and follow the product instructions and all local rules.
PRODUCT DEMONSTRATION IDEAS
Show what the viewer needs to decide.
Finish + details
Slow hilt rotation, grip close-ups, controls, blade connection, display position, and scale in hand.
Ignition + sound
Record in a quiet room, identify the product, preserve native audio, and avoid claiming features you did not verify.
Movement + fit
Show responsible handling, balance impressions, intended use, and who the product may suit.
REFUND-CHALLENGE SUBMISSION CHECKLIST
Submit the post SWA can verify.
Approval remains subject to verification and the program terms. A positive review is not required.
AFFILIATE LINK + COMMISSION HELP
Start with the recorded transaction—not a guess.
Where do I get my link or code?
After approval, use the exact link or code displayed in your affiliate account. Do not shorten, redirect, modify, or distribute unauthorized coupons unless SWA approves it.
What should I check before sharing?
Open the link in a fresh browser, confirm it reaches the intended SWA page, and keep campaign parameters intact. Place your disclosure next to the recommendation.
A sale is missing. What should I gather?
Record the date, time zone, content URL, link or code used, and any non-sensitive order reference the buyer can lawfully share. Do not request card data or passwords.
Why might a commission reverse?
Cancellations, returns, refunds, disputes, fraud review, chargebacks, self-referrals, or other ineligible activity can reverse a transaction.
When and how am I paid?
Use the current schedule, threshold, and method shown in your affiliate account. These settings are not stated here because platform configuration can change.
Who can help?
Use the support channel in your affiliate dashboard or email Info@SWAsabers.com with non-sensitive details.
CURRENT STOREFRONT LANGUAGE
Verify the live offer before every promotion.
The current storefront advertises Buy One Get Two on eligible orders. The Starter Saber is excluded. Promotions and eligibility can change.
The current storefront advertises free global shipping and states 3–5 day delivery once dispatched. Production, processing, dispatch, carrier, customs, destination, and other conditions can affect total arrival time.
Before checkout, confirm every selected item appears in the cart, promotional items show the expected discount, and the final total is correct. If not, stop and contact SWA.
