Creator stories & examples

Vehicle stories, with the details you choose

“The walkaround for a used estate car ended with a long rear view. I needed to blur number plate details while leaving the bodywork visible, so I drew a box around the registration and adjusted the interval. The exported clip still showed the paint and tailgate clearly for the sales listing.”
