Does the Unboxing type work for glossy or dark pans, knives and gadgets?

Yes. The opening frame lights the pan for its material, and the unboxing motion keeps that light consistent. For very reflective pans, knives and gadgets, a dark set shows the highlights moving best.

Will my pan stay identical through the unboxing?

The opening frame is painted with instructions to keep the handle, finish and brand mark 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 pan before you publish.

Which shape should a kitchenware unboxing be?

9:16 is the usual choice; the shape chips in the Studio switch it before rendering. Amazon and Walmart players each have a preferred shape, listed on the platform pages.

Kitchenware unboxing video

For kitchenware, 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 a cast-iron pan in, a unboxing clip out, finish and handle identical to the source.

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