I watched this whole video and I’m saving it to “Watch Later” so I’ll have it for when I actually make my first vertical reel! I actually knew nothing about it so now I’m excited to make a template in Photoshop to fit the style of reels that I’ll be making!!
The part I needed to watch was how u made it vertical when u added the clip. Mine now made my clip side ways. But thanks for speeding up. Great teacher 👏
Amazing! Totally cohesive, clear, and to the point. I needed a masterclass on how to edit Insta Reels, and you delivered, Timmy! Liked and subscribed. Thanks for the awesome content man. And your reel edit looks great!
I’ve seen this demo on many different accounts I keep running into the same issue: the black frame is too wide despite having the same settings and when I import a video the frame just copies the videos frame it doesn’t keep that Instagram look it becomes a landscape, haven’t been able to find the aspect ratio to do it manually either with the crop tool
Veeery good question, I was wondering myself, I just saw your reel on IG and the quality is amazing, Ive been battling over a week with a pretty cool take I did qith my Mavic Air 2s, and I cant get IG to export it without compression and ruining it, Im really frustrated, and Ive tried all kinds of suggestions out there woth bit rate and such and nothing. I got an Android and for some reason I dont have the option of Data Usage in the IG settings to allow to upload content with higher quality, idk if thats the problema. When I upload stuff from my A7SIII no problem
Hey I just started reels and was wondering if there was a way to extract audio from video in Adobe Premiere. I.E. if you want to use trending audio from Insta but want to edit in Adobe! Would love to hear how’d you go about this. Love the video man!
What I've been doing is trying to find the audio on YT, downloading it and using it to sync my clips in Premiere. Then when I go to upload on IG I find the audio and just place it over the video in the app. I've found that if I don't explicitly do this, it won't recognize the song and it will say it's my "original audio" which is unfortunate bc it really reduces your exposure. It would be great if it were a bit easier than this because many of the songs/ sounds aren't on YT.
Great video, I have been trying to avoid making shorts, but realize I need to go along with the flow. I am going to attempt to make shorts out of my existing videos. So stupid question. is the IG format you describe the same for TH-cam and Facebook shorts??
That's a good question! I don't have FB so I can't speak for that but I believe it's the exact same for YT Shorts. You should be able to export one video and post it to both IG and YT without any problem.
I just found this vid from a google search. I just learned more in 15 mins about vert vid production in pr pro than I’ve been able to find in TH-cam searches in 2 weeks. Thank you…thank you…thank you. The guide overlay is a life savor. I accidentally cut off my girlfriend’s head in my latest real on the profile view which only showed her butt…she thought I did it on purpose. Now I have proof that it was a mistake!😂😂👍
Fantastic tutorial. Thank you. Are you able to do one show how to use a trending audio or voice audio that is in the app but edit it in Adobe Premiere. Trending transitions would be cool to learn how to do in adobe vs in app.
Hey thanks for the vid! What about the music you added directly on your edit in PP? Does instagram recognize the music when posted and put the little square for copyright?
Thank you! I'm currently using the Samsung 28" 4K 8-Bit UE570. It works great for my needs and is generally affordable. I've had it for about 3 years so it may be time to upgrade soon. What I love about it, is that it displays colors very accurately to how they will appear once exports from Premiere. So I don't have to deal with that annoying color shift that happens when I export files.
I love the Luts you recommended, are there any other creative luts you’d recommend? I shoot in slog3 and my style is typically the big trouble in little China look. I pretty much only trust your opinion at this point lol
Great tutorial! Just wanted to ask why you didn't mention anything for the export bitrate? I think its an important topic to mention in order to avoid instagram compression and extremely large files
Anyone have any ideas for how to add audio AND voiceover on an insta reel? The moment I add audio to my voice over clip, the audio covers the voiceover. I'd like to have audio playing low in the background and my voiceover more dominant. Any ideas? Thanks
Hey Rosie! You just need to add timestamps in the video description. If you look at the bottom of my description you’ll notice what I’m talking about. Once you do that, chapters will be auto added to your video.
@@_roshi I am! I’m sure there’s an easier way to do it but I go through the video and make notes of the chapters I want. Then I just type them into the description. You could also copy/paste from your editing software
Instagram pushes reels so much more than posts. I have my woodworking projects posted regularly to instagram, and I get maybe double digits views, and ocasionally 3 digits. When I put a 15s reel of sanding a board through a drum sander, I got thousands of views and dozens of follows from it. It only makes sense because the platform never showed people my project posts.
@@TimmyLodhi I just shot a bunch of clips last Sunday, and I am follwoing your tutorial to edit a sub 1min reel for instagram. This vertical format is really annoying when all my footage were shot in landscape. They are also for youtube, and I can't shoot both orientations for every projects. I guess I will have to shoot wider, crop left and right for instagra, and crop to and bottom for youtube. Big SMH.
Hope you enjoyed! Let me know what kind of videos you’d like to see next!
Would love see one on picture profile and how you set your exposure when shooting in s log 3. I’ve fx3 and trying to figure that out
Great tutorial. Where do you source your music?

came to learn about how to change the aspect ratio but glad i stayed to catch the note about blending the audio...love that! simple but effective.
Thanks fam. Been diving into video lately. Im a photographer from South Florida and your information is gold!
Appreciate you brotha
Man you are a real help to the newbies like me, u make the stuff look so easy.
Amazing! Totally cohesive, clear, and to the point. I needed a masterclass on how to edit Insta Reels, and you delivered, Timmy! Liked and subscribed. Thanks for the awesome content man. And your reel edit looks great!
Hey thanks so much Jacob! Didn’t expect this video to hit home with so many folks but glad it did
Just what I was looking for. Thanks for taking the time to share!
Thank you! This was the best explainer I have found. Thank you for demystifying the IG process.
I keep coming back to this tutorial. Very well done. Thank you.
Loved it I think I still want my husband to watch it so he can edit and post my video on social media .
Amazing video man. Utterly amazing.
Thank you!
Thanks this was great for learning how to get started with reels and Premier pro. Also you seem like a real chill dude :)
Thanks so much!
Really helpfull, now i must start to make one... Thanks for the tips!
Good luck!
loved it brother there so much u did but i learnt alot from this video
Thank you for watching! Means a lot.
Great Video !
Thank you!
Explanation is awesome
Thnx for the whole tutorial!
I'm making a trip to Costa Rica and I want to try to make my first reel on Premier. This was so helpful man, thank you!
Glad you enjoyed it!
Amazing video man! I've learnt a lot & loved how you showed the process from editing to posting :)
great video man! very well done.
Thank you!
Learned few new things. Thanks!
You got it Anuj!
Great video Timmy. Thank you
Thank you for watching!
Phenomenal video, you made this so easy to understand. Thanks for sharing!
Thanks for watching!
love your work!! Helps so much
Thanks J!
You don’t use a Sony conversion LUT for slog3? I saw your video on color grading slog2 and in that video you used the Sony lut. Got me a bit confused
No I don’t. SLOG3 and slog2 are very different profiles. I’ve found that the Phantom LUTS give me the best result when shooting in slog3
Amazing Guide Mate. Thanks a lot.
You got it!

Hey Timmy when exporting what were your bitrate settings? CBR, VBR1 or 2?
Veeery good question, I was wondering myself, I just saw your reel on IG and the quality is amazing, Ive been battling over a week with a pretty cool take I did qith my Mavic Air 2s, and I cant get IG to export it without compression and ruining it, Im really frustrated, and Ive tried all kinds of suggestions out there woth bit rate and such and nothing.

You should try keeping the sequence to 900x1600. You get some extra room to play around. :)

@@dowblab I did the same, more time but the proper way to get that exposure from the original audio. Thanks bro
Maybe after finishing up the product, mute/delete audio from Premiere? So then when it’s on instagram reels it’s using instagram as an audio

What about the music you added directly on your edit in PP?
Does instagram recognize the music when posted and put the little square for copyright?
It doesn't! If you want IG to recognize it then it's best to add it in IG directly.
why are my clips looking in letterbox format? when i drag
Great video!! I would be interested to know which monitor do you have and which one can you recommend for color grading?
Thank you! I'm currently using the Samsung 28" 4K 8-Bit UE570. It works great for my needs and is generally affordable. I've had it for about 3 years so it may be time to upgrade soon.

Honestly a lot of the film riot LUTS are fantastic. The only other ones I’ll really use are the Phantom LUTS and some from the Lutify.me LUT pack
@@TimmyLodhi you the best!!
can you help me , how did you record this in 4k with obs?? plzz do tell me your obs settings
If you have a 4K monitor, you can record in 4k in OBS
@@TimmyLodhi I have a 4k monitor but still doent get this type of quality, can you tell me settings you keep in your obs
@@SinghisLive set your canvas and output size to 3840x2160
Great tutorial! Just wanted to ask why you didn't mention anything for the export bitrate? I think its an important topic to mention in order to avoid instagram compression and extremely large files
Funny you mentioned it. I just posted a new video about exporting from TH-cam and talk about bitrate settings
Isnt Insta making it a choppy 30fps video?
Isnt it better to let premiere pro export 30fps including optical flow for example?
Where I can get the color filter you used?
may i ask what picture profile did you use?
Picture Profile 7 (Slog-2)
@@TimmyLodhi perfect thanks for clarifying already subscribed
@@TimmyLodhi last question can i use phantom luts on a7iii with slog2? i'm curious
@@baaao You can but you need to purchase an older pack of the LUTS that were specifically made for SLOG2
Can you use any music without any problems in copyright?
Not sure! I used music supplied by Artlist
tnx bro
Anyone have any ideas for how to add audio AND voiceover on an insta reel? The moment I add audio to my voice over clip, the audio covers the voiceover. I'd like to have audio playing low in the background and my voiceover more dominant. Any ideas? Thanks
You can mix this yourself in an editing program like Premiere. Or you can use Instagrams audio mixing tools to balance them out
amazing vid. what do you use/how do you do your YT chapters?
Hey Rosie! You just need to add timestamps in the video description. If you look at the bottom of my description you’ll notice what I’m talking about. Once you do that, chapters will be auto added to your video.
@@TimmyLodhi I did see that! but you aren’t just typing those in manually are you?
@@_roshi I am! I’m sure there’s an easier way to do it but I go through the video and make notes of the chapters I want. Then I just type them into the description. You could also copy/paste from your editing software
you missed a step on the export.
You should try “auto reframe effect”
This is awesome! What camera and lens did you use to record your footage?
Sony FX6 + 24-105mm G Lens
Why 30fps only?
Instagram pushes reels so much more than posts. I have my woodworking projects posted regularly to instagram, and I get maybe double digits views, and ocasionally 3 digits. When I put a 15s reel of sanding a board through a drum sander, I got thousands of views and dozens of follows from it. It only makes sense because the platform never showed people my project posts.
It’s a blessing and a curse! Definitely worth knowing how the algorithm works especially if you’re running a small business.

Bitrate?
thank you! :))))
What about Copyright music?
I've been muted by Instagram on my reels few times, what are the precautions or recommendations on this particular not to mess up with copyrights?
thank you
Love this! Do you typically use an ND filter while shooting in slog?
The FX6 has built in ND's but I always use one on my a7iii. It's a must have for shooting outdoors! Especially since the Base ISO is 800
Great video Timmy, thank you. Just subscribed and followed you on IG, keep up the good work 🤙
