I have a question. I see a lot of reels that have crazy transitions but are edited perfectly with the music from Instagram. Is there an app with Spotify playlists or do they download the music then edit on 3rd party app? Thank you!!

[@spencerfries7449]

Something I've done and have seen other people do is to just record into your computer audio with your phone speaker(the quality will be bad but that doesn't matter). That allows you line up everything with timing since you have the music, then you mute the clip and then align it with the music on Instagram where the quality will be good.

[@scooter77princessa]

Question, please: REELS. Each time I use the 60 option on length - and upload 2-3 videos (say 44 sec. or less) - IG is truncating them. If my videos are 30 seconds - IG only posts 20 seconds to REELS. Each time I'm noticing important parts that wanted to be in the REEL - they're just missing (truncated). What can I do to fix this? (I've logged out -checked updates, etc.) Nothing helps. | Thanks!

Great tutorial! I haven't experimented with Reels yet, but your video is encouraging me to pay attention to them!

question, if you use a video editiing app to do a reel how would you line it up with the music inside the reel for example every time the beat hits and the camera changes in sync with it, how would that be done via a 3rd parry app? any help would be greatly appreciated

[@aksa_theexplorer]

Yeah I was wondering the same!

Download that video and extract the audio and use it while editing on the app

[@Upper_echelon_exotics]

I've heard that Instagram pushes the shorter reels which is kinda disappointing to me. I think I would enjoy slightly longer ones. I enjoy making longer ones.

[@alexlostit]

When it’s short it usually replays unless you have some that catches people’s attention they will most likely skip it

[@Swissmiss0401]

Dear Justin, Thank you for the video. I usually create reels inside Instagram for my Art and use Existing photos and video from my IPhone . All of my reels come out Cropped (top and button with a black screen) I am been trying to figure out why they are not full screen? Is It how I shoot them with my I phone ? Help please 🥺🙏 I am completely incompetent when it comes to stuff like that😅 I would appreciate any advice . Best wishes , Mireille

[@psmithkcmo]

Thank you! Your videos are amazing. Any advise on how to sync music via Instagram's music library when using a third party editor such as VN? Or is it like using a stop watch to transition at the right time ?

[@FoolproofLiving]

This is exactly what I also want to know.

[@lorimaydeguzman1110]

[@jackwatts8300]

Screen record the music from instagram, play it in your 3rd party app. Then once all alligned, remove it. Add it on instagram, it will match and will pass any copyright

[@crystaladams3972]

Hello. Thanks for the information. Regarding using the third party apps for the reels, do you first just record a video from your phone and then use the editor to create it how you want? I wasn't sure if I needed another app to record the video as well. Thanks

[@InfluencerPro_]

Yes use your built in camera then upload those videos to the third party app. You’ll then build a timeline of your videos and you can adjust them to be in order. Trim each clip and the sky is the limit for how simple or advanced of an edit you want.

[@NealuEmilu]

Very helpful for beginners. Thanks for putting this up

[@SwoonandSwagger]

Can I use a dslr to record my content (probably best in a vertical orientation ). And use a NLE desktop program such as Premiere or FCP. Then import to my phone? Will those methods work also?

[@SaltWaterSalmon]

I was able to use files from my digital mirrorless camera to make reels, even when I shot in landscape (although in editing I lost a lot when converting to portrait) I have NOT been able to use files from my drone to make reels Instagram just won't let me. I'm not sure what the issue is....if it's forbidden or I'm doing something wrong...

Love your vids Justin, have been following for some time. Q: I no longer have a 'preview' button and I cannot change the audio for individual clips in my reel. I need this function so that I can emphasise particular moments in a reel (for band videos when we want to highlight a moment by increasing camera audio but only momentarily). I can only apply whichever audio setting I select (ie camera or imported music) to the entirety of the reel. Is this a new insta update and do you have any workaround suggestions? Tia!

There’s a girl I follow on insta who does hiking and camping . She makes reels with music , her reels have multiple clips over her day in one reel .that switches in time with the music playing . When you look at the bottom of the reel on the left hand side it has a little pin saying “use template” it then brings up a template with each box having a different amount of time posted in each clip box e.g 1.2sec,2sec,1.1sec,1.2sec this I imagine changes clips in the beat of the music . The question is if I can click use template ,surely there has to be somewhere I can click and see a whole load of templates synced with different music ready for me to just upload my videos into the slots and job done ??
