ADVICE

Make A Stop-Motion Reveal

  • Create a stop-motion carousel by starting and ending with videos and filling the middle with minimally changed photos.
  • Add text that says "hold the dots and scroll" to prompt fast scrubbing and reveal the final video.
INSIGHT

Carousels Outperform Reels Right Now

  • Carousels are currently the highest-engaged content type on Instagram and can outperform reels.
  • With more reels posted in 2025, carousels are an underused opportunity to stand out.
ADVICE

Design Split-Image Comparisons

  • Use a "this vs that" carousel with each slide split in half to compare contrasting scenarios or beliefs.
  • Make each slide self-contained so viewers can enjoy any slide independently.
