Do you use the Slo-Mo function to film on your iPhone? Did you notice that the beginning and ending are at regular speed, but the middle is slow?  That is the default setting.
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
Swipe over and I will show you how to edit the video so you're only left with the slo-mo part.😉 ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀

Q:  What do you wish you gave yourself more time to explore?
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
A: I am enamored with oils and would enjoy having time to explore them further. I was not sure I would like them, but after creating my first painting, I knew it was a medium I would find challenging, but fun.
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
How about you?

Finding out that when you create a video story on Instagram, it no longer cuts you off at 15 seconds.  Now, Instagram records the whole video and breaks up the video for you.  Just record, add your hashtags, captions, gifs and click share -- voilà!  How cool is that!?
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
Have you given it a try yet?  Just pop over to your story, click "hands free" and give it a go!!! ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
