On Instagram, video ads need to be one minute or less.

Video ads are shorter on Instagram.

Video ads on Instagram must be one minute or shorter, unlike Facebook where they can be up to two minutes long. So, grab your smartphone and make shorter videos with these simple tips.

Make shorter and strategic videos with Instagram

Use Boomerang to make captivating mini videos that loop back and forth.

Where there’s movement, there’s a Boomerang. Put your product, people or subject in motion to make the video pop.
Once you’ve captured a Boomerang, share it to your feed or Instagram Story. You can also capture a Boomerang right within stories.

Use Hyperlapse to create smooth videos that fix shaky footage for you.

You can speed up your footage to create an easy time-lapse or keep it at normal speed with Hyperlapse's added stability.
Show your manufacturing process, your product in action or glimpse behind.
