IDMC Studio

Most of the designers we work with were posting to Instagram themselves… posting when they could, thinking about it more than they wanted to.

I love that we can take it off their hands, and off their mind.

I know remembering to grab a video can sometimes be the hardest thing when you’re an Interior Designer focused on the 1,000 details of a project. But those 7-second clips are the building blocks of your firm’s digital presence.

If “filming as you go” feels like one more thing on an already full plate, try the “Content Block” method:

🗓️ Pick one morning a week (or one site visit) to be your designated “content creation” time. Set a timer for 30 minutes to strictly film B-Roll (like in this reel) — detail shots, material swatches, and wide room pans.

Many of our clients find it’s much easier to be a “creator” for 30 minutes than it is to try and remember it all week long.

If you want your business to pull new people in with Reels — without spending your week figuring out what to film — now you know what to do.

💾 Save this so you don’t forget you have a “relief” button.
➡️ Send it to a designer who is drowning in site visits and has zero time for filming.
✨ Follow to see how we take the digital heavy lifting off your plate entirely.

The biggest gap I see is that too many designers rely on the photos to do all the work.

And to be fair, the work is strong. But beautiful visuals only get someone to pause.

What actually moves things forward is what people feel when they’re there.

It happens quickly too.

Someone lands on your feed, scrolls a bit, maybe taps into a post or two… and they’ve already decided if they’re staying or moving on.

What we’re really looking for in those first few moments is a feeling of connection. Not just to your portfolio, but a sense of “this feels right for me,” “I’m in the right place,” or simply feeling at ease in your world.

That’s the part that builds trust.

It’s not just what you’re showing. It’s how it comes across.

And that’s what shifts someone from
“I like this” → “I want to work with them.”
