Instagram has become one of the most used social networks, surpassing others such as Twitter or even Snapchat itself in the that has been so inspired. But on many occasions it can happen that our publications do not have as many little hearts as we would like. Perhaps because they do not know how to choose the labels well, because they are not excessively original or for any other reason that is beyond our reach.
This is how we have prepared a list with 5 tricks for Instagram,with the sole objective of creating amazing posts.
1. Surprise your followers with a mosaic on your profile based on a photo
One of the most striking things we can do is create a mosaic on our Instagram profile from a single photo. That is, what we do is cut up an image that would be seen in its entirety on our Instagram profile after publishing it.
There are several applications to do this, both for iOS and Android. For example, Tile Pic for those with the bitten apple and the Instagrid app for the droid.
One of the problems with mosaics is that if we fail to upload the following can happen to us:
So you have to review the order of publication, which normally goes from the first that appears on the phone to the last. And so we will make the mosaic as it should be displayed:
The problem with mosaics is that on their own they don't do much for our followers But instead, they generate a very interesting in our profile. That is, it is a large photo that we can make 2×2 or even 3×3.
2. Head-turning panoramas with Instawide
Have you ever been told that a panorama doesn't look good on social networks? Now we can use our panoramas with an application that we will download from the Google Play Store.
InstaWide will allow us to split regular photos into contiguous squares, so when we flip between images in post, we'll simulate a seamless pan. As in the previous application, remember to publish the images in order to get the panoramic result.
3. Paint with the eraser
One of the options to make our videos or photos more fun is to Pass the brush over the entire image, or over a certain area, and then draw with the eraser . This way we can create different effects that are quite visual and fun.
It will depend on our ingenuity and talent with our fingers to make the best montages that we can think of. As we are still excited about the release of the Super Nintendo Mini, we can't stop thinking about something else and we have reflected it:
4. Montages with famous bodies taking advantage of your selfie
Undoubtedly, a rather shabby but very effective montage. And we can do it in parts:
1. We go to a website like giphy and choose a gif of a celebrity. For this specific example, one of Beyoncé dancing:
2. We download the video and put it on our mobile phone. If we don't have the data cable, we can send it by mail or download it directly from the Giphy website .
3. We open the Instagram Stories part and choose the video. We click on the emoticons part, and a camera appears just below Place. There we can insert our face inside Beyonce's moving video.
5. Artistic resources for stories
Add more colors If we don't like the existing shades, we can choose the color we want from a color palette. We will have to click on the pencil icon or on “Aa”, to open the text part. Click on one of the default colors and a color palette will open in which we can choose our custom color.
Fill everything with a color. If we want to paint the entire screen with a single color, we will have to go to the pen icon and choose a color below. We will press on the screen and keep it pressed between one and three seconds, that will be when it is painted with a solid color. Depending on whether we use the pen or the brush, the filling will be different.
3D text. If you have ever looked for the way to make a 3D text, the way to do it is very simple . We write the text in one color, and then the same text but with a different one. Overlapping them will make the text effect three-dimensional.
