PANASONIC UGC GUIDELINES
Step 1
Capture Like a Pro
Use natural light if possible
Natural daylight gives the best results. If unavailable, use artificial light but make sure the product is clearly visible—no shadows or dim setups.
Keep the camera steady
If available, use tripods, gimbals, or stabilisers to film smooth, steady footage. Better visuals = higher shareability.
Keep the Panasonic product in focus
Avoid clutter or distractions. Introduce the product clearly within the first 3–5 seconds of the video so it’s the star of your content.
Match your format to the platform
Use portrait orientation for Instagram and TikTok.
Use landscape orientation for YouTube.
Step 2
Tell Your Story
Speak clearly
Talk casually, like you're chatting to a friend. Keep your tone friendly and natural.
Video length
Keep your video short and to the point. Under 60 seconds is ideal.
Upload your video in good quality (1080p if you can).
Show your face
If you’re comfortable, appear on camera — it builds trust and authenticity.
Choose the right location
Pick the most relevant setting for your product — e.g., a hairdryer in a bathroom or headphones in your ears.
Step 3

Good UGC Examples
UGC Capture Guidelines
- Location – find the best location to showcase your product in the most relevant situation, e.g., a hairdryer in a bedroom/bathroom, headphones in your ears/the case on a table/handbag.
- Focus – it’s important that the product is the focus within your piece of content and there aren’t too many other distractions/things happening around it. This could be a clear kitchen countertop that showcases the microwave, or a vanity table that shows your skincare device. Try to ensure that the product is shown/introduced within the first 3-5 seconds of the content.
- Branding – where possible, include branding on your products within the content. This includes branding on the product, or relevant packaging that the product came in. Please avoid including other brands or branded products in your content.
- Good lighting – natural light is always the best option, however, if this isn’t possible, then please ensure that lighting shows the product clearly.
- Use of content capture tools – some may want to use phone/camera gimbals to make it easier to capture higher quality shots of products.
- Video – where possible, it’s always more beneficial for other customers to see reviews via video for authenticity. When creating a video, please keep it short and simple (no more than 30 seconds) and ensure that the sound is clear.
- Music – please ensure any music or sound used in the video is royalty-free.
Most importantly – Have fun and enjoy using your product!
Please note with haircare, nanoe should be pronounced nano-EE
