After the recent TikTok ban in India, Instagram has introduced its\nshort-video feature \u201dReels\u201d in India. Users can now create short videos on\nInstagram, use creative filters, and add music while sharing it with everyone\nand not just their own followers. This feature Reels is identical to TikTok. It\nlets users create 15-second long videos with famous songs, trends, and\nchallenges. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Vishal Shah, VP of Product, Facebook said that the idea of this\nfeature clicked when they realized that 45% of the total videos on the app are\n15 seconds or less, and Instagram stories are not the only place where users\nwant to share the videos. Moreover, Instagrammers wish for their videos to\nstick around for long and be able to reach audiences beyond their followers. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

This new feature will allow people to shoot short videos and add\nfilters and songs from Instagram\u2019s inventory and share them beyond the app.\nPeople will now be able to share Reels in feed with their followers as well as\nin the \u201dExplore\u201d section. For now, there won’t be any monetization approach.\nAfter Germany, Brazil, and France, India is the fourth country where this new\nfeature Reels is being tested.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Instagram has also collaborated with some leading music labels to\noffer a plethora of songs to the users for creating and sharing interesting\nReels with everyone.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

How To Get\nStarted?<\/strong><\/h5>\n\n\n\n

Just like options like live, create, boomerang, layout, superzoom,\netc. this new feature has also been added to the Instagram camera. To create a\nreel, users can open the Instagram app and go to its Camera. Along with other\noptions, \u201dReels\u201d will be there. Select it to create a 15-second or less video.\nThere will also be some innovative options like choosing a song from Instagram\nMusic Library and adjusting speed, applying effects, filters, and timer. Once\nyou have created a reel, you can simply select which audience you want to share\nyour short video with. Reels can be shared in Instagram \u201dExplore,\u201d where\neveryone using this platform can see it, unlike typical stories.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

This feature also offers multiple AR effects to enable the users to\nadd a creative touch to their reels. To add these effects in your videos, open\nReels camera, go to \u201cEffects,\u201d and select \u201cAR Effects.\u201d This feature also\nenables users to make multiple 15-second short videos at once and add different\neffects to each of them.  Users can\nreview, delete, and re-record their Reels if needed.
