How to Edit Photos with Instagram
Hey everyone in this Instagram video, I wanted to show you how to edit a picture instead of Instagram. So a lot of people just use the filters, but they don't know. There is a much more involved editing process where you could do a lot more to your picture. So I wanted to show you how to do that to a post in this video.
If it's your first time here, I make it easy to follow Instagram and social media videos every single day of the week. So please consider subscribing. So, let me jump into one of my accounts here, and I'm going to go ahead and post an actual post here, and it's going to look like one of these posts. This is for festival tv, where you could watch independent film festival movies, right on your device.
I'm going to go ahead and press the plus sign and I'll choose an image here. This is the image that I'm going to post. So I just selected from my phone. I'm going to press next and here you always have the filters on the bottom. So you could always go through the selection of filters here and there's a bunch of them as usual down here and sometimes that gets you close enough, but there's a couple of things that most people don't use. One is that sun icon on top, if you press that, you could actually change the exposure of your image so you can make it brighter and more contrast, or you can make it darker and less contrasted. So this basically really changes the contrast of your image and he does make a slightly brighter or darker.
I'm going to cancel that by what I really wanted to show you. Is this an edit option? So if you press the edit option on the bottom, you have all these other settings here, all these different settings. Let me show you a couple of them adjust, for example, lets you change the degree of your image. So if you want it to give it a slight tilt to your image, you could do that just simply by using adjust.
You could also turn the grids on top, on, and off to give yourself a lot more adjustment on straightening or. Slightly changing the angle of an image. I'm going to go back to zero, actually, cancel out. You got regular brightness here, so you can make your image much brighter or much darker. Again, this is different than the Lux that you had on top of your image.
I'm going to press down here. You have contrast again. You can make a contrast, your less contrast E depending on what you want. The structure just works a lot like contrast, but it brings more details to people's faces. So if you bring this up, you could see a lot more details and if you bring it down, it has back to zero details.
But basically, this gives contrast and brings out those details. I'm going to go ahead and cancel and you could do a combination of these. So you could do contrast with structure warmth. Exactly what it sounds like. It makes your image warmer saturation. It makes it more vibrant. So if I bring that up, you see the colors are, the blue is getting bluer here, color.
You could just change that kind of overall filter. So you could do it to your highlights and you could do it to your shadows. So you see those shadowing highlight option on. If you hold one down, you could even change the intensity of it. This is really a great filter. You got your fade again, you could make your image fade.
If you go all the way to a hundred, you got your highlights and shadows where you could change the brightness and contrast those here independently. You got to vignette, which is really handy. You see on the sides, it's making it darker just on the edges here. That's what vignetting means. You know, you're a tilt-shift, so you could just press and play with some of those settings, but you see it changes some of the focus on your MSO right now.
If I use the radio tilt-shift, some of the things in the radio. So the center basically stays in focus and the outside is in a radial fashion out of focus. Linear makes it just a top at the bottom or out of focus. I don't want to use that in this case and you are sharpening. So if your image is out of focus, could actually try to bring it into focus by bringing the sharpness up to a hundred, and then when you're done, you can basically press next and it will take you to your post where you would post you. Regular Instagram posts, but that's how you get a lot more control in editing your images right inside of Instagram. I hope you found this useful and these tools could come in handy for you.
