Don’t let your lack of music prevent you from creating reels. Here are my secrets to creating reels without the music feature.
Do a voice-over
Just open up reels and start recording. These reels often work better in my experience than using music.
Original Audio
Use another account’s audio. When watching the reels, click the audio scrolling at the bottom. Instagram will give you the option to save that audio or use the audio right away.
Music on Inshot
If you don’t have the music feature try using the Inshot app. On Inshot you can use their music selection or your Itunes library, but be careful because it may be flagged for copyright.
Voice-Over Pre-Recorded Video
With InShot you can also use a voice over from pre-recorded video. There are a few creators that are already lucky enough to have this feature on reels. I am not that lucky.
TikTok Trick
Love a tiktok trend, but can’t seem to find the audio on Instagram-- try this. Click the audio on tiktok, and see if the creator already uploaded that video to Instagram. Their video becomes original audio that you can use.
Hashtag Hack
Forgot to save a song you were dying to use, try Instagram’s search feature. I often use song title hashtags to find the video. I've also done a search if I know the movie or tv show the audio came from. And if I’m really desperate I take lyrics or lines from the audio and start searching that way.
