How long should a tea splash & Particles be?

Four to six 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 Splash & Particles type work for glossy or dark tea tins, sachets and loose-leaf pouches?

Yes. The opening frame lights the tea tin for its material, and the splash & Particles motion keeps that light consistent. For very reflective tea tins, sachets and loose-leaf pouches, a dark set shows the highlights moving best.

Q: Will my tea tin stay identical through the splash & Particles?

The opening frame is painted with instructions to keep the tin artwork, blend name and lid as uploaded, and the Splash & Particles motion — water, ice, petals, smoke or sparks move around a still, sharp product — moves the camera and the light rather than the product. Compare the clip with the tea tin before you publish.

The Splash & Particles type turns a tea tin into a commercial effect fired around the product in slow motion — water, ice, petals, smoke or sparks move around a still, sharp product. For tea that means leaves drifting down beside the tin on a wooden table, in a clip four to six seconds long, with the tin artwork, blend name and lid held in every frame.

Every tea tin in the range can go through the same Splash & Particles settings, so the Shopify collection page and the PDP galleries look like one shoot. Swap Splash & Particles for another type with one click to split-test tea tins, sachets and loose-leaf pouches.
