How to Record Reels in Bulk Each Month
"a planning process that groups similar activities together to improve focus and productivity" (Intuit Turbo)
One thing we like to do prior to the beginning of each month is create our content and reels in bulk.
Today, we're going to walk you through creating 4 reels in bulk.
Step 1: Choose your Reels
As a C&C member, you have access to our Reel Ideas & Templates page where we release at least 4 new reel ideas and templates each month.
Additionally, I recommend saving any reels you see to a Collection titled "Reels" that you want to replicate.
This leads us to a commonly asked question, "what is the etiquette on copying reels?"
In our experience, it is totally fine to use other people's Audios. In fact, that's kind of the point. However, it's best practice to switch up the context of the Reel with your own unique spin. Read more about the etiquette of copying Reels here.
Step 2: Record your Reel
Choose a day to record your Reels. We recommend grabbing 2-4 shirt or outfit changes and trying to record in a minimally decorated area with good lighting.
USING A TRENDING AUDIO:
When you you're using an Original Audio from Instagram, you'll need to record this in Instagram to sync up with the words or music. Once you finish recording, save the video without audio to upload it into your Canva template. When you finish customizing in Canva, you can upload the video again and the sound will still match perfectly.
USING MUSIC OR VOICEOVER:
If you're not using a trending audio, you can film your Reel on your camera or Instagram. Once you finish editing it and customizing in Canva, you can add audio and a voiceover in Instagram before you post.
Step 3: Head over to C&C and open your Canva templates
You'll need to click "Open" on our Canva templates to load them in to your Canva Designs. Once you've clicked the purple "Use this Template" button, they are now in your account.
To upload the video you just recorded, open the Canva app on your phone. Upload your video and drop it in. Customize however you'd like, and click the download button on the top right to download the video.
