What is a reel maker?

A reel maker helps create a short vertical Instagram Reels video from a script, prompt, or source media. It can assemble visuals, narration, captions, and music into an editable first cut.

How do I create an Instagram Reel in VideoGen?

Start with a script or idea, choose the vertical format and generation settings, then create the video. Review each section and adjust the visuals, text, captions, timing, or audio before export.

Is this beginner-friendly?

Yes. VideoGen creates the first edit and provides direct controls for each section, so you do not need to build the Reel from an empty timeline.

Can I use these Reels commercially?

Commercial use depends on the media and inputs in the project. Review the VideoGen terms and confirm that you have permission to use any uploaded or referenced material.

What video formats are supported?

Export in vertical, square, and landscape formats optimized for Instagram Reels, Stories, YouTube Shorts, and other social platforms.
