Set up the small surprise
Choose the reference that suits your item. Stillmore builds the binocular view and the cut back to the woman, then checks that the product in her hands matches the reveal.

Name it when you post
Download the finished video and its caption. A bakery could add the pastry name, pickup day and ordering link before it publishes the post.
Made for your business
From the first clue to the first bite
Start with the deciding detail
If people buy the pastry for its lemon topping, let that topping show in your product photo. Stillmore uses the picture for the reveal and your brand name for the closing frame.
Choose where she spots it
The official clips move from a beach to a country picnic to an evening sidewalk. Add a setting, a model photo or a tagline if one of those choices matters to your shop.
Let the clue come first
The picnic basket appears through the binoculars before the pastry does. Stillmore cuts from the field to that closer view, then back to the woman as she raises the pastry for a bite.
Match the two close-ups
A different topping after the cut can make the pastry look like a second item. The team checks the yellow square, the flaky edges and the way the pastry sits in her hands.
Give the discovery a destination
The film tells viewers what she found. Use the accompanying caption to tell them what to do next: check Saturday’s menu, reserve a pastry for pickup or ask when a shade is back.
Find your fit
Which products reward a closer look?
Choose the reference by the action after the reveal: taking a bite, sipping a drink or trying a cosmetic.
A finished dish
Lemon wedges on a beach blanket give way to a bowl of salmon salad. The cut to the woman tasting it gives a lunch spot a way to introduce a seasonal bowl before linking to its menu.
Cream in a jar
A bowl of blueberries gives way to a blue cosmetic jar. Use the visual rhyme to introduce the pack, then show how the woman handles it. An ingredient-like prop does not establish a formula claim.
A signature pastry
A picnic basket and cut lemons set up the lemon-topped pastry. Its golden square stays visible when the woman takes a bite, a useful cue for customers looking for it at the counter.
A bottled cosmetic
A basket of green fruit precedes the slender bottle. The woman presents it, then pats her cheeks. Choose this reference when the container and that application gesture both suit the item.
A seasonal drink
A basket of kumquats leads to a whipped iced drink on an evening sidewalk. The straw gives the last shot a simple action. A café could name the flavor and where to order in the caption.
Owner stories
What shop owners told us after their first video
★★★★★
I had been photographing the same lemon square on the same chipped plate for two years and getting almost nothing back for it. The first cut Stillmore sent me, the one where the bite pulls through the glaze, I watched it four times in the back room before I could even answer the email. It looked like the way the shop smells at seven in the morning. We sold out of Saturday boxes by Thursday night, and now people in town just call it the lemon square video.

I gave up on learning to edit anything. I am forty-six and I stopped pretending I was going to. What I sent them was a phone photo of our strawberry cold brew on the counter by the window, with the light coming in wrong. They sent back a clip where the fruit appears a beat before the drink, and I will be honest, I teared up a little, because it looked like the summer we opened. Two of my regulars had forwarded it to their friends before I had even posted it, and one of them told me it finally looked like us.
Alba
★★★★★
For two years my moisturizer was a jar on a white background and nobody could tell what the cream actually did. The one they made shows it leaving the jar and meeting a cheek, close enough that you can see the texture, and I have had people stand in the shop holding their phone up next to the jar to compare. A woman drove forty minutes in from the next town and asked for a tester because of that clip, so yes, I keep it pinned at the top of the page now.

Good to know
Before you choose this look
What makes this different from a retro filter?
Found & Tried uses a short discovery story. The binocular view hides part of the scene, reveals an ingredient or object, then shows the product. A cut back to the woman lets viewers see her try it before the brand ending.
What do I need to submit?
One product photo and your brand name are required. Pick a photo with the visible detail you want people to recognize. Setting & Occasion, a model photo and a tagline are optional.
Can I choose who appears in the scene?
The Found & Tried form has an optional Model field for one reference photo. You can also describe the setting or occasion. For this exact binocular sequence, choose the Inspiration yourself; the Stillmore team still makes and checks the video.
When does the delivery window start?
For a manual Inspiration request, Stillmore delivers within five days once payment, the required materials and the request are complete. Add-on video work is scheduled separately, one video at a time.
Will the video look like a vertical Reel?
The five Found & Tried examples and the creation page use a horizontal 16:9 frame. The wide view leaves room for the setting before the binoculars narrow the shot. Stillmore provides the finished video and a social caption.
Who adds the pickup time and publishes?
You publish from your own account. Edit the supplied caption to add a pickup time, ordering link or stock detail while it is current, then post the finished video.
What will she find through the binoculars?
Choose a product shoppers can recognize in one glance. Have its photo and your brand name ready to start.
