Jewelry Designs Look Much Better Online When They Spin

Look at the fantastic GIF or animated image I found on the Klimt02 international jewelry design website! An animated product that spins to show all angles of a jewelry piece will show off your work to maximum effect, as Australian jewelry designer Julia deVille illustrates with the spin view of her Pave Rook necklace. Here's a video I found showing many other product "spins" to give you ideas of how you can show off your work better on your website, blog, or Etsy store.

The video will steer you to the Swiftspin360 website, and I'd like to direct you to their 7 Steps to Creating a 360 Product Spin. Join the website in order to freely access their articles and downloads. While the pitch is to photographers, if you're a jewelry designer with a camera, we'd like you and our jewelry design students to experiment with creating some beautiful product spins of your special work!

 

If you're interested in learning more about wedding planning, we encourage you to explore the Sheffield School, New York, NY. Sheffield began as an Interior Design school in 1985, and then expanded our course offerings to train people in other design-related fields, including Feng ShuiWedding and Event Planning, and Jewelry Design. With thousands of active students and more than 50,000 graduates, Sheffield has trained more design professionals than any school in the world.

    I think the spin would look a lot better if it faded instead of a dry cut to each frame. Either way - this is better than a still picture!

    I agree with Brandon, above. The continued spinning is a bit too much. A fade would be nice. Do you know how to create a gif? I would love to display jewelry on my website with gifs? Thanks so much. This is a great blog.
