Here he is and welcome back to another class of our course about the complete introduction to Instagram
Martin.
So in the past few classes, we talked about different features of Instagram, which talked about how
you guys can Google your Instagram and basically some different features about this amazing application
in this class.
What I want to talk about is something that is pretty basic.
So basically, we're going to talk about picture modification on Instagram.
So I really want to talk about this topic because I define a picture as well.
Usually people know how to modify pictures, but just talk about different features that Instagram offers
you in order to modify your pictures.
We're not going to talk about all the filters that exists, but basically just talking about some features
that Instagram offers you to modify your picture.
So we're going to go in life on Instagram and check out all those features.
So let's start.
All right.
So basically pretty simple.
Just turn it on.
Here we go, we have our Instagram account right there, and as you can see, it's our Instagram account.
So this is the mobile version of it.
So basically, if you guys want to add a picture, it's pretty simple how it works.
You simply have to on the button right here.
So you can see there is a little plus button right there and you can simply click on it.
So by clicking on that button, you will have access to different things.
So basically here you have post story, story highlight HDTV in basically each time that you guys want
to add something, you can simply click there and you will be able to edit.
So if you want to add a story, you can edit there.
So just by clicking here, if you want to add a post, it's going to be here.
So it's pretty simple.
So let's add a post.
So first of all, we're just going to add a post to our well, to our account.
So we'll click on post and here we'll have access to different pictures.
So here we have a code that's never free.
And I just make time.
And basically we have plenty of other things.
So we'll select a car picture.
So we'll have this car, for example.
Or we'll go with a white background or something.
No, let's let's keep this picture.
So first of all, the first step is really selecting what exactly you want to import.
So in this case, we want to have a..
Picture.
So when it's done, it's pretty simple.
You just click on next.
So the button right here.
If you want to select more than one picture, we can click on Select Multiple and we'll be able to add
more than one picture.
But for now, let's just add one picture to our account.
All right.
Next step is pretty simple.
What exactly you want to do?
So here, for example, we can modify the picture, so basically the car picture with a filter.
So here we have a filter and we can also play it manually with all the modifications.
So first thing that I want to check out with you guys is pretty simple is all the filters that you guys
can well, though, that we have access to.
So there are plenty of filters right here.
So let's say I want to have something like this so you can see it's pretty nice.
I can make it a little bit more retro.
I can make it black and white.
So basically, it's all how you guys want to make it look like.
So let's make a basic picture modification.
So let's try it like this so it's a little bit more dark.
So usually how I modify my picture is pretty simple.
I start with some basic modifications, so I select a filter that I like.
And yeah, so basically this is my favorite filter between all those first things they select, they
filter that I like.
Once it's done I go and edit and I, I modify the picture a little bit more in depth, so I will start
by adjusting it.
But in this case I don't necessarily have to adjust the picture.
So everything is pretty fine.
So if I play with the picture, as you can see, it's going to look like this.
So this is for the adjustment.
But personally, for this picture, I don't need to make no adjustments.
My opinion is already pretty good, so I won't make adjustments.
My first thing that we are going to adjust will be the brightness of the picture.
So once again, it all depends of what exactly I want to do.
So the more I go to this side, the more it's going to be bright.
The less I go, the more it's going to be dark or less light.
So if I want to make a more NITI feature, so basically nighttime and all the stuff is going to be this
way if I want to make it more daylight and that people spot all the details, it's going to be this
way right there.
So I like the mood of more nighttime pictures, so I'm going to bring it more right here.
You know, just click on Down Superimportant Click Undun, if you click UNcancel, you will have to
start again.
All the modifications.
I'll just make my screen a little bit more bright to be able to see it.
Great.
Next thing will be modifying the contrast.
So for the countries, pretty much the same thing.
So it's once again, the goal here is really to take out the colors to basically how you want to present
your colors, how much contrast you want to draw a picture.
So once again, I don't want too much of it in this case.
I want I want it like this.
I want the picture that looks more natural.
So he will have my contrast right there.
And next thing will be the structure of the picture.
So, as you can see.
Now, it's a bit more complicated to see, but here it allows us to see the details.
So if you look right here, you can see the person who is driving the car.
When we go with structure up to 100, we will be able to see the person inside of the car.
If you go like this, you won't necessarily be able to see it.
So first thing like for this type of picture, I want the structure to be to the max.
So basically you can keep it at the center.
But personally, I find it really beautiful when it's to the max.
So it's going to be done.
Next thing, how I want my picture to be warm, so basically warmer will be will mean more hot colors
and that cooler will mean more cold colors.
So the more it's warm, the more it's going to go to the red and yellow and this type of colors.
So yellow, red and more, it's called the more it's going to go to the blue.
So basically blue, purple and this type of colors.
So we are able to see if it's hot outside or cold outside based on the well, based on the colors inside
of the picture.
So I want to add a more warm background.
So basically more warmer color.
So let's put it at 50 49.
Right.
Next thing will be saturation.
So how I want to saturate my pictures so I don't really want to go to the extremes.
But once again, let's let's play with it just a little bit.
So if you if you see what if I'm going to the max this week, it's going to be completely black and
white.
I don't want to I don't want the picture to be too much saturated as well.
So let's keep it at, let's say twenty twenty, nineteen, nineteen twenties.
Actually not that bad then for the colors.
So what type of a dominant color I want to have inside of my picture.
So I don't really like this.
Well this feature you guys can use it basically if you want to give a certain mood to the picture,
adding a predominant color.
But personally I don't really use it so well.
You can have it as a shadow or as a picture highlights.
It can it can give a certain, as I said, the mood picture.
But once again, I don't necessarily use it, so I won't use it.
But it's an interesting feature if you want to have, like, let's say, for example, a certain color
in the background.
All right.
We we have done colors next feed.
How you want your picture to be faded, basically, if you play the right way with the feed feature,
you can use it as a tool for your picture.
So you can see it gives you more actual perspective of the picture.
This is how I personally see it.
So basically, you can modify the colors and all the stuff, and this will give a more Raichel effect
of the picture.
In this case, we won't necessarily need it.
Next will be the highlights.
So same thing for highlights.
Highlights is a feature that in this case could be pretty good.
So you can play with the highlights as well.
As you can see, this is what what it gives to the picture.
So we can.
One put it right there, will put it at 50, so one of the most of the details to get out.
Then we'll have the shadow.
So same thing for Shadow, if we go on this side too much or this side too much, as you can see, it's
going to be more darker or more lighter in this case.
I want to I want it to be more lighter for my picture.
So we'll go with 50.
And we have some other filters that there are left, but in this case, we don't necessarily need it.
So this is, for example, if I want to make a more certain effect on the picture.
So here we go, if want to, for example, have a really interesting visual on the Lamborghini, nothing,
nothing besides of that, I can use it so I can do it on Eleonore.
We.
So he would go right now, everything will be blurry in the background and the car will be more a little
bit more scene, so it gives a certain effect.
So this one could be pretty cool.
And yeah, this one is more transformative effects won't necessarily mean it.
All right, so right now you guys are able to see what it all looks like to modify our pictures.
So you can see it's not something that is that complicated to do than simply click on next.
And what exactly you guys can do right now is simply to ask people if you want to check people who can
do it right here, if you want to if you want to add a product, you can do it right there at the location
if you want to post your picture on Facebook as well.
We can simply post it right there on Twitter, on Tumblr.
So you can see it's pretty simple the way it works.
You write down your expectation right here.
So you write down whatever you guys want.
So you can see it's pretty simple to work with basically picture modification tools on Instagram.
And it's not that complicated.
The thing right now is really to basically get well, get used to it.
And the size of that, well, as you can see, it's not that complicated.
You have those are really the basic features that you guys can use to be able to work on Instagram.
So, guys, it's all in our next class.
