Welcome to ExpressIt Studios

A new home for cinematic photo-to-video. Why we built our own storefront, and what's coming next.

We're live. Welcome to ExpressIt Studios.

For the last few months we've been turning photos into cinematic videos on Etsy — product ads for small businesses, personal memory films for the moments that matter. Today we're launching our own storefront so we can do that better, faster, and on our own terms.

Why leave Etsy

Etsy is great for getting started. It is not great for a video studio:

  • They hold your money for weeks before paying out
  • Their fees stack up quickly (listing fees, transaction fees, payment fees, ad fees)
  • They limit how you can present your work
  • There's no good way to manage the photo handoff after a sale
  • They don't allow variants on digital products

We outgrew the fit. Time to build the right home.

What's here today

Our full catalog, simplified:

  • Custom Product Video Ads for businesses — 15s, 30s, or 60s, single or 3-video bundles
  • Custom Memory Videos for personal moments — pet, birthday, anniversary, wedding, gender reveal, memorial

Same cinematic work, same 24–48 hour turnaround, same revision policy. Better experience.

What's next

This is Phase 1. Coming soon:

  • Upload your photos right on the site after checkout (no more email back-and-forth)
  • Order tracking so you can see exactly where your video is in production
  • More blog posts on what makes a video stop the scroll, how to brief us for the best results, and behind-the-scenes from real shoots

Thanks for being here. Let's make something cinematic.
