Are you thinking of repurposing a YouTube video on Instagram? Well, YouTube videos can be repurposed directly to WhatsApp, Facebook, Twitter, Reddit, Pinterest, LinkedIn, and a few other major social media networks. However, YouTube doesn’t provide an option of repurposing the videos to Instagram directly.
In this article, you will learn how to repurpose YouTube videos on Instagram in three simple steps
There are several ways to download YouTube videos. The simplest way is to use a third-party website like savefrom.net or ytmp3
Copy and paste the YouTube video link in either of the above websites and download
Instagram allows us to share videos as Reels, Story, IGTV, and Post. Each one of these content types has requirements that have to be met before you can successfully upload it to your Instagram account.
The requirements are as below
For IGTV:
For Reels:
For Story:
For Posts:
As you can see, a 9:16 vertical video is the best-suited video type to be posted for Reels, Story, IGTV and a 1:1 square video is the best-suited video type for Instagram posts.
So now, we’ll show how to customize your horizontal YouTube video for both aspect ratios.
This is the sample YouTube video that we are going to repurpose on Instagram and I have downloaded the video to my PC using
In this instance, we aim to generate traffic back to the YouTube channel using an Instagram Story.
Let’s see how we can customize the video for Instagram Story
1. Head over to the Instagram Video Maker from Animaker and sign up for a free account.
2. After logging in, you will be redirected to the application’s Dashboard. Under the section Create Project, you can see the different types of projects that can be created using Animaker.
3. To create an Instagram Story, IGTV, or Reels, click on the Vertical video. You will be prompted to choose between a blank canvas and templates to create your video. Since we are planning to customize our YouTube video into an Instagram Story video, click on the Blank option.
4. On choosing the Blank option, a new blank project will open in the application. This is the interface of the Animaker app where you can edit and repurpose your videos.
5. Towards the left-hand side, is the Library section. You will find the Upload option at the bottom of it. Once you click on it, you can select and upload the YouTube video you want from your PC.Note: YouTube videos are of horizontal video format with 16:9 ratio.
6. After uploading, clicking on the video will automatically convert it into a vertical video and fit inside the workspace. Once you click on the video in the workspace, you will notice a set of options. This is called the Item menu and it gives us the options to edit the video.
7. While the video changes from horizontal to vertical video format, certain parts of the video may get cropped because of the change in the aspect ratio. But do not worry. You can always use the Resize feature from the Item Menu and adjust the specific part of the video that has to be visible.
Click on the Resize option and you will be able to control the part of the video that will appear within the workspace.
But if you want to totally avoid the video getting cropped, use the Resize option to reduce the size of the video and keep it at the center of the workspace and then click apply.
Now you can use the space above and below the video to add a Title text or a call to action text. But before adding text, let’s change the background color to make the video look better. To change the color of the background, click anywhere on the white region of the workspace and you can see a new color palette option appearing at the bottom.
Click on the edit option over it, and choose the new color that you want to add to the background. Click the green tick icon to apply. In our case, we are choosing the Black color for the background.
8. To add text, click the Text section on the library. From this section, you can choose a blank text box or pick from a list of pre-built text designs that come with pre-applied animation effects.
Let’s see how to use one of the text boxes to add text to the video. Just click on one of the plain text boxes you like, and it will appear in the center of the workspace. To edit the text, click over it again and type in the new text. Since we want to drive traffic to our YouTube video from our Instagram story, let’s use “SWIPE UP” as the call to action text to this video.
Once you have typed “Swipe Up” in the text box, click on the settings option that appears on the right side. Using the options available in the settings menu, you can change the font style, color, spacing, and even the transparency of the text. Let’s change the font style and font color for better visibility and keep it at the bottom of the workspace.
You will also notice a purple bar in the timeline. You can just drag and adjust its length to control the duration for which the text will appear on this story video. For example, If I want the text to appear after the first two seconds, I have to drag the left edge of the purple bar and move it to the 2s mark on the timeline.
Likewise, you can control the entry time and exit time of any text using the edges that are available at both ends of the purple bar.
The next step after this is to add entry and exit effects for the “Swipe Up” text we just added to our project. To do this, head over to the bottom section of the settings menu. The two options ‘Enter effect’ and ‘Exit effect’ let you add enter and exit animation effects to your text. Click on the enter effect option and you can find more than 50+ different text animation effects that can be applied to this text. Here we are selecting “Pop left” as the Enter effect for the text.
After applying the enter effect, you will notice a new pink-colored part within the purple bar in the timeline. This will let you control the duration of the text’s Enter effect. In the same way, we can apply an Exit animation effect for the text. But for this text, we don’t want any exit animation effect so we are not choosing any effect.
Now let’s add an icon to compliment the “Swipe Up” CTA text. We can use the properties option from the library section to add an arrow icon. Also, let’s apply a suitable Enter effect like “Pop Top”, to the arrow, to make it more engaging for the audience.
Similar to how we adjusted the time of entry for the swipe-up text, you can use the purple bar in the timeline to adjust the duration at which the arrow will appear in the video. And similar to the Swipe up text, use the right edge of the pink bar to adjust the Enter effect duration of the arrow.
Now let’s also add a Title for this Instagram story. Let’s type the YouTube video’s title “ 5 Most Scenic Sunsets on the West Coast “ and place the text box at the top of the video. Use the settings menu that appears on the right side to modify the text color, font style, etc. Adjust the purple bar in the timeline to set the duration at which the text will be seen on the video.
9. Use the Trim feature in the Item Menu to customize the overall duration of the video.
Once you click on the trim feature, you can see a pop-up of the video with options to trim it. 
Drag the purple edges in the timeline to trim the video. Since we are creating an Instagram Story video, set the duration to less than 15 seconds (the max duration for Instagram Story is 15 seconds). Then click on the Green tick icon to apply the changes.
10. Now let’s preview what we have made. Using the Preview button in the menu bar, we can see how the scene looks.
11. Once everything is done, click on the Publish button in the top right corner. From the options shown, select the Download Video option to download the video.
12. Clicking on Download Video, the project will be redirected to the export page. Click on the Download button to save the video directly to your PC.
Now that you know everything you need to customize the video to suit an Instagram story, let’s look at how to customize a video to fit an Instagram post.
In this instance, we are going to repurpose a YouTube video on Instagram. We aim to generate traffic back to the YouTube channel using an Instagram Post. Let’s see how to customize the YouTube video (of 16:9 aspect ratio) into an Instagram square video of 1:1 ratio,
1. Head over to the Instagram Video Maker from Animaker and sign up for a free account
2. In the Animaker application’s Dashboard, under the section Create Project, select the Square video format.
3. You will be prompted to choose between a blank canvas and templates to create your video. Since we are planning to customize our YouTube video into an Instagram video, click on the Blank option.
4. On choosing the Blank option, a new project window will appear. This is the interface of the Animaker app where you can edit your videos.
5. Towards the left-hand side, is the Library section. You will find the Upload option at the bottom of it. Once you click on it, you can select and upload the YouTube video you want from your PC.
6. After uploading, clicking on the video will automatically convert it into a square video and fit inside the workspace. Also, an Item Menu will now be visible in the workspace which lets us edit the uploaded video.
7. While the video changes from horizontal to Square video format, certain parts of the video may get cropped because of the change in the aspect ratio. But do not worry. You can always use the Resize feature from the Item Menu and adjust the specific part of the video that has to be visible.
But if you want to avoid the video getting cropped at all, use the Resize option to reduce the size of the video and keep it at the center of the workspace and then click apply.
In our case, we have Resized the video to the center of the workspace and then clicked Apply.
8. Click in the empty white region of the workspace and an option for editing the background color will be available at the bottom of the screen. Select the suitable color and click the green tick button to confirm. In our case, let’s stick with the default white background color.
9. You can also add text over the video by using the Text section from the library. Once you click on the text section you will have two more options to add text. On the bottom, you can find the pre-built text designs that come with pre-applied animation effects. And plain text at the top that can be customized according to our needs.
By clicking on the plain text, a new text box will be added to the workspace. Click on it further and you would be able to type the text that you want to add. We can also drag and move it anywhere within the workspace.
The settings tab appears on the right side. Using these options you can change the font style, color, spacing, and even the transparency of the text.
And at the bottom of the settings, the two options ‘Enter effect’ and ‘Exit effect’ let you add enter and exit animation effects to the text. You will also notice a purple bar in the timeline. You can just drag and adjust its length to control the duration of the text.
In this instance, for our Instagram Square video post, let’s type the title “ Make your breakfast in under a minute ” at the top of the video and add the YouTube channel name ” @YT_YourHomeChef” as the watermark and place it in the bottom space of the video.
10. Use the Trim feature in the Item Menu to customize the duration of the video.
According to the Instagram duration requirements (Instagram Square Video Posts can be 60 secs long), drag the edges to trim the duration and click on the Green tick button.
Using the Preview button in the top menu, we can view the changes made to the scene.
11. Once everything is done, click on the Publish button in the top right corner. From the options shown, select the Download Video option to download the video.
There are two different ways to upload videos onto Instagram. Let’s see how to publish your videos using both methods.
Only IGTV videos can be uploaded from PC. Follow the instructions below,

With 37 million YouTube channels uploading 500 hours of video every minute, even being visible is a hard task today. In such chaos, finding the right ideas for YouTube videos is as good as finding a needle in a haystack, especially for a beginner YouTuber.
Searching for inspiration for new ideas,
Being a beginner YouTuber means facing a lot of challenges in video making, starting from inadequate technical skills, lack of experience, lack of quality editing tools, and so on. Considering all these challenges, we have come up with a list of 100 YouTube video ideas that require minimal resources, with the promise of higher views. Yes, a list of YouTube video ideas specifically meant for beginners!
Before getting into an idea spree we want to share something with you. When we started our Youtube channel we faced a lot of challenges in gaining views. We know how hard it is to gain even a few hundred views as a new channel. That is why we decided to share our learnings and the strategies we used in the form of a video. Hope this is of help to you!
As a starter, it is better if your first YouTube video is something based on yourself. Involving fewer stakes is the best way to make things happen.
1.) A self-introduction video can be your first YouTube video. Just talk to your audience, tell them who you are, how you feel about starting a channel, and what you are planning to do with the channel. A simple self-intro video is an excellent way to get things fired up.
2.) Vlogs are one of the most popular types of YouTube videos and very good for individuals in terms of converting your channel into a profitable one. But the critical thing is to find your uniqueness. It can be the way you present yourself before the camera, how you talk to your audience, how you tell your story, something that’s very unique to your channel. That’s the only way you can stand out from the ocean of vlogging crowds. Looking for some help on starting your Vlog journey? Here is a super cool article on how to start a Vlog.
3.) Share your perspective on things starting from politics, religion, legal rights issues like gender equality, LGBTQ+ rights, or maybe even talk about black holes, and time travel if you know some physics.
4.) A day in your life: Show what you do on a day and make them live your life. These videos are a step to get closer to your audience and build a relationship with them through your content.
5.) Talk about your path to success. Set goals and show the progress you make to achieve them. People are looking out for some real-life inspirations. It may be a fitness goal like losing body weight or learning a new skill, like a musical instrument, or something cool like doing a backflip and so on.
6.) Record your reaction to different incidents that your viewers will be interested in. It doesn’t necessarily have to be Your reaction video. It can be of your friends’, neighbor’s, or your cute little cousin’s.
The following is one such reaction video posted by the YouTube channel ‘React’, which makes reaction videos on everything that is trending. If you doubt the potential of reaction videos, then check out this channels’ subscriber count 😉
7.) Share your music playlist. Talk about why you like them, how you got to know them first and share your music taste with your audience.

9.) Create a list of your favorites, starting from your favorite books, movies, tv shows, other YouTube channels you like, and so on. These videos not only bring in views, but you also get an opportunity to share your taste and create a relationship with your audience.
10.) Trying things for the first time. Film yourself or your friends or family trying out things for the first time in life. For example, trying to speak after inhaling helium gas, trying different cuisines, or going bungee jumping, or a gazillion other fun things.
Is trying Mcdonald’s for the first time a big thing?! Yes! This kid, Merrick Hanna, makes it look like so!

Here is a video that explains how to create loop videos for different social media channels. If you prefer learning by watching videos over reading then this is for you. If not then continue with the article.
Loop videos are continuously repeating videos with endless or multiple replays. There are several ways to create a loop video but only a few of them are simple and efficient at the same time.
Animaker is one such video creation tool that provides you with simple yet powerful options to edit your videos online. This three-step process will show you how to use Animaker’s video looper to loop videos online in no time.
Create an account in Animaker. Once you enter the dashboard, click

Now, select the upload option, which is on the bottom left corner of the interface. Upload the video that you want to loop by clicking on the upload button. Or you can simply drag and drop the video file into the application.
Upload section of Animaker
After uploading the video, select it to load it into the workspace.
On the right-hand side, you have an option called Duplicate, present within each scene. Now click on the “duplicate scene” button as many times you want the video to be looped. Let’s say you want the loop to happen 10 times, then click on the duplicate icon for 10 times.
Once done, click Publish>>Download Video.
Once the video is rendered, you will be redirected to the following page.
Here, you will have options to download, edit your video again, and even share the video or the project file with others for more editing.
In addition, you will also receive a download link of the processed video in the registered mail id. Thus making sure that downloading remains an easy task for you.
Different purposes require different solutions. Don’t they?!
Say you are planning to play your video in some fair or tradeshow, and you want the video to be continuously repeating in the background. In this situation, a software solution that will help you loop the video a certain number of times might not be the best solution. What you need is an easy fix that will help you keep playing the video an infinite number of times without your intervention.
In this case, looping with the help of video players is the best option. Below I have shown how to loop a video in some widely used video players.
In the Windows media player, the second icon in the bottom menu, from the left-hand side allows you to play a video on repeat mode.
To play a video in a loop in the VLC player, click the View button on the top menu, and select advanced controls.
Once you open the advanced controls, use the loop button to select the section of the video ( point A to Point B) that you want to play in a loop.
If you press the play icon now, the video will play in a loop between the points A and B.
Looping a video in a Quicktime player is similar to doing in the VLC player, but much simpler.
Click the View button and select the loop option and you are ready to go!
YouTube is our easy go-to solution for all our video needs. But still many of us don’t know how to utilize it to its fullest potential. YouTube gives us a very easy solution to play a video on repeat mode.
To make a video play on a loop, do a right-click on the video and select ‘loop’ from the options.
Looping a video inside your PowerPoint presentation is a good way to keep hold of your viewer’s attention. To begin with, insert the video into the presentation by,
clicking Insert tab >> Video >> and select the option Video on my PC to upload the video that you want to add to your presentation.
Once you embed the video, now go to the Playback tab and select the box near the option ‘loop until stopped’.
That’s it. Your video in your presentation is on loop and the loop will continue until you stop it.
An infinite loop video can fool the viewer by blurring the difference between the start and the end of a video. It’s a great trick to create attention-grabbing social media videos.
This simple two-step process will show you how to make infinite loop videos.
Step1: Upload your video
Create >> Create GIF >> Blank page.
We are creating this as a GIF file to ensure that the video runs continuously as an infinite loop. For this requirement as well, we’ll use Animaker.
Once you login to the application, upload the file that you want to loop using the upload section present on the left side of the application interface. Or you can also drag the video from the folder into the application.
If necessary, you also have an option to trim the clip that you are uploading to make your video loop accurate. And you can do that by dragging the edges of the clip in the video timeline.
Step2: Download
Now Click Publish >> Download Gif.
This is a good way to create an infinite loop video for Twitter and Facebook.
As Instagram does not accept GIFs, you have to download your output in mp4 format. To do that, download through the Download video option.
There you have your infinite loop animation!
