What a turntable shows
It lets a customer turn the product themselves, seeing the back, the sides and the details they care about. For footwear, bags and accessories it often answers questions that a set of stills leaves open.
How it is done
Each rotation frame is cut out, cleaned and colour corrected to match the others. The product is centred on one fixed point so it does not wobble, the shadow is held steady, and the frames are exported as an image sequence or a video, depending on your viewer.
What we need from you
The full set of rotation frames in order, the background you want, and the format your product page viewer uses. If frames are missing or the product moved on the turntable, we tell you before editing.
Repetition for the tools, the spin for a person
Turntables are repetitive by nature, so tools help with the first cut-out of each frame. An editor checks the sequence as it plays, because a flicker in one frame is invisible on its own and obvious in motion.
How ALT FIX helps with this
We clean, align and join rotation frames into a smooth spin on white or transparent, matched to the rest of your catalogue.
