How long should a furniture unboxing be?

Six to eight seconds. Shorter clips compress the motion; longer ones slow it down rather than adding more. Render two lengths and keep the one that reads best on a phone.

Does the Unboxing type work for glossy or dark sofas, chairs and tables?

Yes. The opening frame lights the armchair for its material, and the unboxing motion keeps that light consistent. For very reflective sofas, chairs and tables, a dark set shows the highlights moving best.

Will my armchair stay identical through the unboxing?

The opening frame is painted with instructions to keep the upholstery, wood tone, legs and proportions as uploaded, and the Unboxing motion — hands enter from below, lift the product, turn it once and set it down — moves the camera and the light rather than the product. Compare the clip with the armchair before you publish.

Furniture unboxing video

For furniture, Unboxing means hands lifting the product out of an open box: hands enter from below, lift the product, turn it once and set it down. One photo of an armchair in, a unboxing clip out, upholstery and proportions identical to the source.

Photograph the armchair with the label facing the camera before opening the Unboxing type. Set the shape to 9:16 for Shopify, keep the length at six to eight seconds, and render; the opening frame appears first and the unboxing clip follows.
