Using Imovie , Movavi Movie Maker or other video software, you can create a documentary style clip, video portfolio, a step-by-step demonstartion of your work and a combination there of. Adding music, which should be royalty free or self-generated, along with animated graphics will enhance the viewing experience.
There are a few things that you should consider when developing your video:
1. INTENT: What do you intend your video to do for you?
Will you be promoting a particular project or body of work, selling prints or other merchandise, introducing a new book project, promoting an upcoming lecture or workshop, etc? Have a focus for the video along with a landing page link for the audience to follow through with.
2. DESIGN: Design your video to specifically address your intention and target a particular audience.
Don't make your video an all encompassing catch-all for everything and everyone. Be specific and and your returns on your investment will be greater.
3. SEQUENCE: Structure your video in a way that tells your story.
Utilize story boarding techniques to create impact. Start by doing quick sketches and notations on potential directions in which to take your video. Put all of your imagery and video clips in a folder in the appropriate order to assist in importing them into iMovie.

4. SOUND: Select the soundtrack that will enhance BUT not overpower your video.
I have created custom tracks for all of my videos. If that is not a skill set you have or want to acquire, I suggest you explore royalty free music options. Voice-overs are also a great way to enhance your video.
