How to Make 9:16 Social Videos for TikTok and Reels

Create vertical 9:16 videos from wedding photos: pick a template and it is built instantly, change effects per photo, choose social music and add your logo.

Vertical video is the most-watched format on social media. The 9:16 social video mode lets studios create promotional 9:16 videos in just a few minutes.

Steps

  1. On the start screen, choose 9:16 social video.
  2. Add photos and choose a template — the video is built instantly.
  3. Drag and drop to reorder photos, and change each photo's effect from the vertical frame effects library.
  4. Choose music from the social music list (or use your own).
  5. Add a PNG logo: choose its color, size, opacity and 1 of 9 positions.
  6. Export to MP4 and post to TikTok, Reels and Shorts.

Tips

  • Keep videos at 15–45 seconds and open with your best photo.
  • Landscape photos still work — the vertical frame effects handle the layout automatically.
