Steps to Creating Your Own Reel:
1. Set up an account.
2. You click on Create a Reel.
3. You upload your photos. You can upload up to 14 images, but only 7 can be used to create the reel. You can adjust the scale of your image, rotate the image, adjust the brightness, adjust the contrast, choose back and white, sepia, or full color.
4. In this area where you edit your photo, you can add type to your photos as well. I did add type, so Mica and Isaak could look their reel's and know where we went on vacation. They have 18 fonts to choose from, 5 different sizes, and 14 colors to choose from.
5. Once you are done adding your 7 images to your reel, you can pick out a background for the center. They have 32 backgrounds to choose from. If you would rather, you can upload your own photo, or background. You can also add type on the center image, which has the same options as the reel images have.
Background Choices
I went with full color:
Here's back and white:
Here's sepia tones:
Before You Buy You Can Preview Everything Once Again:
The preview even spins the circle around as you view your images. The little sliver of white in the corners of the preview box threw me a little. I was hoping they wouldn't show up on the final images. They didn't.
I fixed this sliver of black on the edge of this photo:
Here's My Final Custom Reel:
There's 2 images on each side, so both your eyes see it. It's 3D esque.
You can just buy the Reel, or a Viewfinder to. I got 2 reels (1 for each child), and 1 Viewfinder. Mica already had a Viewfinder. It works in Mica's Viewfinder as well. Mica's is a little more sturdy than the one we got for Isaak.
They have 4 colors to choose from:
The Reel and Viewer Set is $29.95, and a Reel only is $19.95. It's kind of pricy. I'm willing to pay the price for something custom! I didn't let the boys in on the fact that I put their Reels together. They got them in the mail, and were amazed. I heard, "Hey that's me on that!" It's a keepsake for sure!
It's perfect to show case a vacation, cruise, wedding, party, school projects, or a self promotion portfolio.
I was amazed at how fast they shipped something so custom!
