"Consider 'Coming Home' by Leon Bridges for a soulful, understated announcement, or 'Electric Love' by BØRNS for a vibrant, energetic reveal. Avoid overly sentimental or novelty baby songs."
"Instead of balloons, show a close-up of a potter's wheel shaping clay, and at the reveal moment, the finished piece is glazed in a deep sapphire blue or emerald green. Or, a time-lapse of a subtle art piece being created, where the final brushstroke reveals a rich lavender or golden hue."
"Start with beautiful shots of your home in San Francisco, empty nursery, a shot of the ultrasound, then build anticipation with personal anecdotes from parents and siblings before ending with a subtle reveal – maybe a pair of tiny mint green boots or a soft mustard yellow blanket."
Most modern gender reveal slideshows run about 4 minutes at about 5 seconds per photo, kept modern in style.
