Let’s Create Those Beautiful Instagram Stories…
I think I get a DM almost every day on my Instagram asking me how I create my Instagram stories, what apps I use to create them, do I use a template for Instagram stories, and so on and so forth. That’s why I’ve decided it’s time to spill my secrets of the trade and share with you the three must-have apps to create beautiful Instagram stories. Don’t forget to tag @thesilksneaker or #inspiredbyTSS if you use these apps to create some super artsy stories, so that I can see them and share your work too! Now, keep in mind, that when I create my Instagram stories, no one app makes them look the way they do. I put a lot of time, effort and creativity into the work I put out for you guys, however, these three apps allow me to translate my ideas into reality for Instagram! Now let’s get cracking, or should I say, snapping!
Over
Over is like an easy photoshop for your phone. It allows you to layer images with shapes and text. It has a wide variety of fonts to choose from, as well as other features including stickers, fun backgrounds and more. I mainly use this app to create the white frames in my images and to sometimes add in text in specific fonts that Instagram stories does not offer.
Video Leap
You guys have been loving the way I have moving images layered with still images in my Instagram stories and the way I am able to layer photos and videos on my phone is using Video Leap. Video Leap works like a film editing software that you would have on your computer, except on your phone! It’s a great way to create fun little videos!
After Light
Afterlight is a photo editing app that allows you to also add polaroid frames to your photos. It’s how I’ve been adding all the polaroid frames to my images for my Instagram stories. It also has other fun effects like the light leaks, where you can add different light flares in different colours to your images. There are two versions of it, Afterlight and Afterlight 2. Afterlight 2 does not offer the frames so I would go for Afterlight.
I hope this helps you on your Instagram journey and I cannot wait to see all the amazing content you all create. Don’t forget to tag @thesilksneaker or #inspiredbyTSS for a chance to have your creative stories shared by me!
