Why Product Showcase Reels Matter 💛


When potential customers are scrolling through their feeds, you have mere seconds to capture their attention. A well-crafted product showcase reel not only highlights your art but tells a story that resonates with your audience.


Elements of Attention-Grabbing Reels


1. Start With a Hook ➡️

  • Begin with your most visually striking piece or an intriguing detail

  • Use text overlays that pose a question or make a bold statement

  • Show the "wow" moment in the first 3 seconds


2. Lighting is Everything

  • Natural light works like a charm for most product photography

  • Film during golden hour for that soft, warm glow that complements your art

  • Consistent lighting throughout the video maintains professional quality


3. Show Your Art in Context

  • Include clips of your designs in real-world settings

  • Feature people actually using or displaying your products

  • Demonstrate scale and versatility


4. Add Personality and Authenticity

  • Include brief moments of your creative process

  • Share the inspiration behind particular pieces

  • Let your unique artistic voice shine through


5. Technical Considerations

  • Keep videos between 15-30 seconds for optimal engagement

  • Use trending audio that complements your aesthetic

  • Implement smooth transitions between shots

  • Ensure your video quality is crisp and clear

Content Ideas for Your Reels 📦💛

  • "Unboxing experience" from your customer's perspective

  • Before-and-after transformation of a space with your art

  • Quick time-lapse of your design being printed onto different products

  • Side-by-side comparisons of digital designs and finished products

  • Customer testimonials interspersed with product highlights


Remember, I'm not just selling products—I'm sharing my artistic vision and inviting viewers into my creative world. Each reel is an opportunity to build a connection and showcase not just what I make, but why it matters.
