How to use Keyframes in Instagram Edits
Keyframes sound complicated, but I'll show you how to easily use them in Instagram Edits.
They're just a way of telling the app where you want
something to start and where you want it to end
and letting Edits fill in the movement in between.
In this video I'm showing you exactly how keyframes
work in the Instagram Edits app across text, images and video
and what they can currently do and what they
can' so you know exactly what you're working with.
In this video I'm covering:
✦ What a keyframe actually is
✦ Where keyframes live in Edits
✦ Keyframes with images and video
Position, scale and rotation set two keyframes
and Edits animates the movement automatically
✦ Keyframes with text
Slide text in, scale it up, reposition it mid clip
more control than standard text animations give you
✦ Practical examples
Real use cases shown live in the app
✦ Current limitations
What keyframes can and can't do in Edits right
now worth knowing before you go looking for
something that isn't there yet
