Why this format works
UGC content outperforms polished ads because it shows the product in a real person's real life. The shot list keeps the footage grounded and specific — the credibility comes from the detail, not the production value. Your most important shot is usually the most unglamorous one.
Filming tips for Reels
- Instagram's compression is aggressive — expose slightly brighter than feels right. Dark footage compresses badly.
- Film 10–15% more footage than the shot list calls for so you have edit room for transitions.
- Match cuts and morphing transitions between shots reward viewers who watch to the end — plan for them as you shoot.
- Check your aspect ratio: 9:16 for Reels, with safe zones at top and bottom for overlays.
