Slideshow Render

TikTok slideshows for music promotion

A TikTok slideshow is a few photos that change on their own, a line of text on top and a song underneath. Omniscape turns a stack of your photos and one line into a vertical slideshow video in under a minute. You post it and add the sound in TikTok.

What a TikTok slideshow is

A slideshow is one of the simplest posts on TikTok. A handful of photos play one after another, a short line sits over them, and a sound runs under the whole thing. It can go up as a photo post, where people swipe through the pictures or let them advance, or as a video, where the photos change on their own.

Omniscape makes the video kind. A Slideshow Render is one vertical video file. Your photos crossfade one into the next and your line stays on screen the whole time. Because it is a video, the timing you set is the timing people see, and it posts like any other clip.

Why the format fits a song

  • The sound carries the song

    The track is the post’s audio, so every view plays the song. Post with the official sound and anyone who taps it can find the track.

  • The photos carry the mood

    No new footage needed. Photo shoot outtakes, tour photos, cover art and places that feel like the song all work as slides.

  • Fast to make

    A Slideshow Render takes under a minute, so a release can post every day without someone editing every night.

  • Easy to test

    Keep the photos and change the line. Keep the line and change the photos. Post both and keep the one people watch to the end.

How to make one in Omniscape

  1. Pick your photos.

    Choose them from your Media Library, where slideshow photos sit in their own bank, tagged by page theme. Or upload new ones. A slide can also be a GIF.

  2. Add one line.

    Type it, pull it from the Quote Vault, or leave it blank and caption in TikTok. Set the text size and add an outline so it reads over any photo.

  3. Set the timing and render.

    Each slide holds for 1.8 seconds unless you change it. Hit render and the video lands in All Content in under a minute.

  4. Post with the sound.

    Download the video, upload it to TikTok, and add the sound there. Omniscape does not put music in the file.

From All Content you can download one render, copy a share link, or download a set as a zip. The homepage shows the full flow and the render above with all five photos.

Many slideshows from one photo set

One slideshow is easy. A release needs a steady run of them, often across several accounts, without every post looking like the last. Batch render is built for that.

  • A batch in one pass

    Set the number of videos, the slides per video and the seconds per slide, then queue the whole run at once.

  • A different mix each time

    Pick photos by tag and each video draws its own set at random from the matches. Or pick them by hand and choose exactly which photos go together.

  • A line for each video

    Each video takes a line from the Quote Vault, a fresh line written for the batch, or no caption at all. The text size can change from video to video too.

  • A folder per account

    File each slideshow into the Page Folder for the account it is going to, so every account keeps its own set of posts and you can see what went where.

Everyone on the workspace works from one Media Library and one Quote Vault, and the vault shows how often each line has been used, so the team does not repeat itself. Running several accounts? Read running multiple TikTok accounts for music and the fan pages guide. For one photo and a slow cinematic move instead, see aesthetic quote videos. Teams with a roster should read Omniscape for record labels. Plans are in the pricing section of the homepage.

Questions

How many photos should a slideshow have?

Five or six is a good start. Each photo holds for 1.8 seconds by default, so five photos make a clip of about nine seconds. Use fewer or more, and make the slides hold longer or shorter to match the song.

Do I add the sound in Omniscape or in TikTok?

In TikTok. A Slideshow Render is a silent video file. Download it, upload it to TikTok and pick the sound there, ideally the official sound for the song so people who tap it can find the track.

Can I make slideshows on the free plan?

Yes. The free plan includes Slideshow Renders and Fan Page memes, with no card. Pic to Video Renders come with the plans that list them in the pricing section on the homepage.

Is there a watermark?

On the free plan every render carries a small Made with omniscape.io badge in the corner. Paid plans render without it.

What size and shape are they?

Vertical, 9:16, at 1080 by 1920 pixels, as a video file. That fits TikTok, Instagram Reels and YouTube Shorts without cropping.

Can my team share one photo library?

Yes. Everyone on your workspace works from the same Media Library and Quote Vault. Photos are sorted into banks and tagged by page theme, and on a team workspace an admin can set each person’s render limit in Settings.
