Instagram Video Templates
Choose a Reel opening for someone scrolling the feed and a cover for someone browsing your profile. A product detail or an event date may need to work in both places.

--:--For a studio announcing a class, the grid cover might need only the class name and day. The Reel can open on the instructor in motion. Look for a layout that gives both moments room; a beautiful first frame is less useful if the cover crop cuts off the date. For a profile built around recurring events, try the same cover idea with two different event names. A design that fits “Open Studio” might struggle with “Saturday Morning Figure Drawing.” Leave room for the longer title while keeping the instructor or subject recognizable at thumbnail size.
For a product Reel, check whether the detail you want to show stays visible beneath captions and controls. If you’re deciding between several kinds of posts rather than designing specifically for the grid, explore social media video templates.
Questions?
We're here to make it clear. Check out our FAQs, and if you still have questions, Pexo is always ready to help.
Do the cover and first frame need to match?
They can differ. Keep the subject recognizable in both so the transition from the profile grid to the video feels coherent.
How do I frame a group for a vertical video?
Arrange people with some depth or use a sequence of closer shots. A wide line of faces can become too small or lose people at the edges.
What should I check before sharing a text-heavy Reel?
Read it once at normal speed on a phone. Check that each line stays readable over the footage and clear of the account name and controls.
