How do I generate AI videos for Instagram Reels?

Open Renoise Canvas, describe your Reel or upload a reference image, pick Seedance 2.0 or Kling 3.0 Omni, set the ratio to 9:16, and generate. The output is a 3–15s vertical video ready to upload to Instagram Reels. No editing or post-production required.

Built for vertical short video

Reels-ready generation with the right ratio from the start.

9:16 native output

Generate directly in 9:16 — no cropping, no reframing. The vertical format is set before generation starts.

3–15s short clips

Reels-length clips: 3s punchy loops or 15s full story beats — pick the duration that fits the hook.

Text or image input

Describe the Reel in a prompt or upload a still to animate — the model does the motion.

Generate a Reel in 3 steps

From a prompt to a 9:16 vertical clip ready for Instagram.

  1. Typing a prompt in Renoise Canvas to generate a vertical 9:16 Instagram Reels video
    Step 1

    Describe your Reel

    Open Renoise Canvas and type what you want — a product demo, a lifestyle scene, a fashion moment. Or upload a photo to animate.

  2. Selecting Seedance 2.0 and setting 9:16 ratio in Renoise Canvas for an Instagram Reels video
    Step 2

    Set 9:16 and pick the model

    Choose Seedance 2.0 or Kling 3.0 Omni, set ratio to 9:16, and set duration (3–15s). Both models support vertical output natively.

  3. Reviewing a generated 9:16 Reels clip in Renoise Canvas and exporting it
    Step 3

    Generate and export

    Generate the clip, review it, then export. Exports are watermark-free on paid plans — upload directly to Instagram.

Generating Reels with AI — what to expect

Instagram Reels are vertical (9:16), short (up to 90s, with the sweet spot at 7–15s for algorithmic reach), and watched without sound before the viewer taps. The generation workflow in Renoise targets this exactly: you set 9:16 before generating, so the model composes the scene for a phone screen — not a widescreen crop.

Seedance 2.0 from ByteDance handles smooth motion from text prompts or reference images and supports multimodal reference (up to 9 images, 3 video clips, 3 audio clips). This is useful if you want a Reel anchored to a specific product or person. Kling 3.0 Omni from Kuaishou adds physics-based dynamics — more natural fabric movement, water splashing, character weight — which reads better for lifestyle and fashion Reels.

A practical note: Renoise generates 3–15s clips per generation task. For a longer Reel (30s+), plan multiple generation tasks and assemble them in the Canvas Timeline. The generative step takes 20–90s per clip depending on model and resolution, so plan your shoot list in advance for a batch workflow.

Frequently asked questions

1.What aspect ratio does Instagram Reels require?

Instagram Reels plays in 9:16 vertical format on mobile. Both Seedance 2.0 and Kling 3.0 Omni in Renoise support 9:16 natively — set the ratio before generating so the model composes the scene for a vertical screen.

2.How long can a generated Reel be?

Each generation task produces 3–15s. For a Reel up to 90s, plan multiple generation tasks and assemble the clips in the Canvas Timeline. A 9:16, 15s clip is the most efficient single-generation target for Reels.

3.Can I use a real person in my Reel?

If you want to use a real, identifiable person, that face must go through FacePass first — likeness clearance adds them to a whitelist so the model can use the reference. Fictional or AI-generated characters need no FacePass.

4.What's the difference between this and the general AI Video guide?

The AI Video guide on /features/ai-video covers all ratios (21:9 to 9:16) and general video generation workflows. This page is specifically for the 9:16 vertical Reels use case — the generation method is the same but the intent, ratio, and output target are different.

5.Can I generate an ad-style Reel for Instagram?

Yes. For product ads and paid social Reels, see also /guides/ai-ad-generator which covers the advertising creative workflow in more depth — including product reference, brand consistency, and multiple creative variants.

6.What resolution is the Reels output?

Seedance 2.0 outputs 720p (Fast) or 720p/1080p (standard). Kling 3.0 Omni outputs 720p/1080p. Video resolution is not 4K — 4K is image-only in Renoise. Exports are watermark-free on paid plans.
