Create Art Reels: Turn Artwork Into Vertical Videos

Create Art Reels: Turn Your Artwork Into Vertical Videos

Today, artwork isn’t only discovered in galleries or websites—it’s discovered while scrolling. Platforms like Instagram, TikTok, and YouTube Shorts have changed how art is seen, shared, and sold.

That’s why we’re introducing a new feature in InsituArtRoom that lets you create vertical Reels directly from your artwork—designed specifically for social media.

What Are Art Reels?

Art Reels are short vertical videos (9:16) that showcase your artwork inside realistic interiors. Instead of posting a static image, you can now create dynamic content that feels alive and stops the scroll.

With the new Reel feature, you can:

  • Create videos optimized for Instagram Reels, TikTok, and Shorts
  • Show artwork installed in real spaces
  • Add movement and depth to your presentations
  • Reuse the same artwork across multiple social platforms

Why Video Matters for Artists

Social platforms prioritize video—and collectors respond to it. A short reel can communicate scale, mood, and atmosphere faster than a single image.

  • More engagement: Videos get more reach than static posts
  • Better storytelling: Show how the artwork lives in a space
  • Stronger branding: Your feed looks more professional
  • Higher visibility: Designed for how people discover art today

Built for Artists, Galleries, and Sellers

The Reel feature was designed to be fast, simple, and artist-friendly:

  • Artists: Create content without video-editing skills
  • Galleries: Promote exhibitions and collections visually
  • Sellers: Showcase artworks in motion for online listings
