You’re making massive strides!
Look at you rockin’ the speed, timer, + align features. Now it’s time to stay accountable.
Click the button below to download this free graphic for Day 2 to post to your Instagram Story (yes, Story) and fill in the blank with 1 thing that’s exciting about these features.
Remember to mention @mycontentcalendar_ in your Story so I can sing your praises!
Take Action Now
Understand the different playback speeds and what effect they can have on your Reels.
When creating a Reel, if you can, find YOUR favorite part of the audio and use that.
No matter if you are creating a Reel with only 1 clip or multiple clips, get into the habit of using the timer so you don’t look stressed or rushed in your Reel.
If you are creating a Reel with more than one clip and want to have a seamless transition then use the align feature.
Remember to stay out of the dead zone when filming your Reel.
And if you are doing a point to text style reel remember to take a tiny step back to fit you and the text into your Reel.
Now its time to create your first Reel of this training. With the saved audio you have, create 1 Reel that vibes with you. If you want to use a few things that you learned about today - speed, timer, and align - then go for it.
PLEASE don’t feel like you have to use everything that you learned today in 1 Reel! That’s insane, will not be humanly possible, and if you actually did pack absolutely everything you learned to day into 1 Reel I think the Instagram app would explode.
So go easy. Start small. Do the things that you’re curious about and leave the rest for another day. The main thing is to have fun. Remember, no overthinking!
After you create 1… (or more than 1 Reel;-) remember to use the hashtag #mccreels in that Reel so I can find you, cheer you on, and give you feedback!
