Who else spends hours and hours looking at Instagram every day - we know, we do too!
I'm sure you all follow one or many influencers. Some we like more, others less, but we can agree that little by little the content they show us (especially through stories) has been improving a lot. Now we can find very different stories, with effects, with phrases and super special and original backgrounds...
And not just from influencers!
Our favourite brands are constantly uploading content that we love and we often don't know how to achieve some of the effects or formats that we see every day on this social network.
Lavani to the rescue!
Although we can't lend you our wonderful graphic designer, Laura, to make your stories, here are some tips and Apps to make your stories better than the influencers'!
VINTAGE EFFECT
The vintage effect is always a success. We see it everywhere and love the way it looks. Although our favorite App to get it is 8mm, this is paid, so we bring you an alternative so you don't have to spend anything. With the VSCO Cam App, which we all know and which became so popular some time ago, we can make videos that look like this. In addition, once the video is done, you can swipe right on it to add a lot of effects. Our favorite to give it as much vintage touch as possible is the M5!!!
BRILLI BRILLI
How we love a good glitter effect !
It looks great for many occasions but we love to use it to show the jewelry in detail because it adds a super special touch. It is perfect if you are going to do some unboxing stories of something that has arrived or simply when you show the detail of anything. The star App is KiraKira, but as a free alternative there is the Brillar App. #LavaniTip: so you don't see the watermark, record from a little further away than normal and zoom in when you're going to upload it to stories!!!!
TEMPLATES
Many times we need to make a compilation of several photos, several videos, and we would like to be able to upload them all at the same time. The two best apps for this are the one we all know, Unfold, and StoryLuxe, an app that we highly recommend to get the effect of several polaroids in one story. Best of all, both are free and have a ton of templates to choose from. If you want to go a step further, there are in-app purchase options to get more original and unique templates.
DRAWING EFFECT
The effect that many of you ask us about and that looks brutal! We have used it for this unboxing, but we love how it looks with selfies or photos in front of a landscape. It is achieved with the Picsart App which is super easy to use and intuitive. You have to try it!
