AutoReel – One-Click Product Reels

Alternative Pack in VSE


Which Blender versions does AutoReel support?

Blender 4.2 and newer. It is tested on Blender 5.1 and 5.2 LTS on Windows. It is a standard Blender extension: install it from Edit > Preferences > Get Extensions > Install from Disk.

Does it work with Cycles?

AutoReel renders with EEVEE: the light shows, haze and particles are tuned for it and a reel renders in minutes. The reel switches the scene to EEVEE and Remove switches it back.

Can I use the music in commercial videos?

Yes. The built-in tracks are generated by AutoReel on your computer for each reel, they are original and royalty-free. If you use your own music file, you need the rights to that music.

Can I use my own music?

Yes. Choose My Music and pick an audio file: AutoReel detects the tempo and cuts the shots on the beat. If the detection is off, type the BPM.

Which formats can it render?

9:16 (1080x1920), 4:5 (1080x1350), 1:1 (1080x1080) and 16:9 (1920x1080), as an H.264 MP4 with AAC audio at 30 fps. The framing and the titles adapt to each format.

Does it change my model?

No. The set, lights and cameras are new objects, and the product animation uses delta transforms, so the object's own transforms and keyframes are untouched. Remove deletes everything AutoReel made and restores the scene settings.

Can I mix the styles?

Yes. In Mix & Match every layer can come from another style: set, lighting, light show, atmosphere, camera moves, finish, titles, music, entrance and idle animation. Colors can be replaced with your brand colors.

Can I edit the reel after it is made?

Yes. The reel is a normal edit in the Video Sequencer (the AutoReel Edit scene): move the cuts, change the texts, the volumes or add your own strips. Update Reel rebuilds the edit, so fine-tune last.

How long does a render take?

It depends on the GPU, the style and the length. A 10 s vertical reel takes a few minutes on a recent graphics card. Draft quality renders at half resolution for quick checks.

Can I film several objects?

Yes. Select them all before clicking Make Reel: they are framed and animated together as one product.

Does it work on Mac and Linux?

AutoReel is pure Python with no external dependencies, so it runs wherever Blender runs. It is tested on Windows.

What is included?

The AutoReel 1.0.0 extension with full source code under the GNU GPL v3, 16 styles, 14 music grooves and the fonts for the titles (SIL Open Font License and GUST Font License). The marble bust in the previews is not included.
