Turn finished gardens into Reels ads

Sizzledraft turns a landscaping website into a 1080x1920 Instagram Reels ad using real screenshots and the site's own colours, type and imagery. It can frame before-and-after gardens as the main proof, then finish with the landscaper's service area and contact details.

How do I turn landscaping photos into an Instagram Reels ad?

Start with a page that clearly shows the garden before work began and after the landscaping was finished. Sizzledraft drives a browser through that page, captures the real project images and builds a vertical 1080x1920 scene using the site's own colours and type. The opening should establish the original problem, such as an uneven lawn, bare beds or an unused patio. The next shots can reveal the finished paving, planting, turf or lighting, followed by the service area and a clear enquiry prompt. The first video is cut from the site alone, so the source page needs to contain the strongest transformation. Later videos accept a prompt, which can focus the edit on a particular service such as garden design, patios or lawn replacement.

What should a landscaper show in the first three seconds?

Show the weakest part of the old garden, then signal that a finished result is coming. A patchy lawn, broken paving or empty new-build plot gives viewers an immediate reason to keep watching, especially when the next frame reveals the completed work. Keep the opening text concrete, such as “From muddy slope to usable garden,” rather than making a broad claim about quality. Vertical framing matters because wide garden photographs can hide the contrast on a phone screen. Centre the problem area and match it with the same viewpoint after the work. If the website has no true before image, open on a close detail of the finished patio, border or lighting and identify the specific landscaping job instead of pretending there was a documented transformation.

How should landscaping Reels use music and project details?

Let the garden transformation lead, then use project details to explain what changed. Short labels such as “Porcelain patio,” “New lawn” and “Low-maintenance planting” help viewers understand the work without covering the photographs. The video renders at 30fps in H.264, with audio normalised to -14 LUFS. If a trending sound suits the Reel, Sizzledraft hands it over as a link so it can be attached natively when posting. It is not baked into the file because baked-in audio does not count as using that sound. End with the landscaper's actual service area and enquiry route. A local viewer should know whether the business covers their town and whether to request a quote, book a visit or view more completed gardens.

What the browser actually gets

The browser can capture visible before-and-after photos, project pages, service lists, location details, logos, colours and type from a landscaper's website. It may struggle when galleries require repeated interaction, comparison sliders hide one image, or the finished garden photos only exist on social media rather than the supplied page.

The common mistake

A common mistake is showing only the finished garden, which removes the contrast that proves the landscaping work. Open with the original lawn, patio or planting problem, then reveal the completed space from a matching angle and name the specific work completed.

  • Before-and-after garden photos often sit in separate gallery pages, making the transformation hard to show as one clear sequence.
  • Wide patio, lawn and planting photos can lose the important details when cropped for a vertical Instagram Reel.
  • Service areas, landscaping specialities and contact details compete with project photos for limited screen time.

Questions

Can Sizzledraft use a before-and-after slider on my landscaping website?
It can capture what the browser can display, but a slider may expose only one side at a time or require interaction. A project page with separate before and after images gives the edit clearer material. Make both images visible on the supplied page when possible, ideally from a similar camera position.
What format will my landscaping Reel use?
The vertical video is 1080x1920, rendered at 30fps and delivered in H.264. That format fits Instagram Reels and gives portrait space for garden photographs, short service labels and a local enquiry prompt. Wide landscape photos may need tighter framing so patios, lawns and planting remain readable on a phone.
Can I ask for a Reel about patios instead of general landscaping?
The first video is cut from the website alone, so it follows the patio projects, services and wording available there. Later videos accept a prompt, letting you request a tighter focus on porcelain paving, garden paths, seating areas or another service supported by the site's real content.
How much does it cost to make landscaping videos?
Sizzledraft costs $19 for two videos or $39/month for eight. A landscaper can use the set to test different completed gardens, service areas or project types, such as lawn replacement and patio installation, while keeping each Reel tied to material captured from the business website.
