Make the image your project needs

  • Your carousel needs an original opening image.
  • You want a travel memory to become an illustration.
  • You need artwork to bring into your social layout.

Start with the moment worth opening on

A social story becomes easier to follow when its opening image has a clear idea. Choose one place, object, or memory that introduces the sequence. A photograph from a trip can become a small illustrated world. A familiar scene can become a paper composition with a playful point of view.

Peelaway creates that artwork from your photo, idea, or both. Select a treatment that matches the story before deciding on every supporting slide.

Give each supporting image a role

Plan a short sequence: an opening scene, a meaningful detail, and a closing image. Keep a few visual choices stable, such as the palette and material. Vary the framing so the images add to the story rather than repeating it.

Try this direction with a travel photo or adapt it to a written idea.

A starting brief to try

Create an illustrated opening image for a weekend travel story. Use the attached harbor photo as the scene reference. Emphasize the colorful boats and warm afternoon atmosphere, with space around the main subject.

Bring the artwork into the post

Download the images you want to use and arrange them in your carousel or video editor. Add final captions, timing, and text in that layout. Review the sequence on a phone to see whether the opening image invites the next swipe.

For a carousel, choose compatible output shapes and check the crop on every slide. The carousel guide covers the artwork plan and the separate assembly step. Muse here means the Reels editor published by Bigrowth.
