Instagram Story Tutorial: create rainbow text 🖌🎨
🤭 Exposing one of Instagram's little hidden features. Enjoy spicing up your Stories with colour!
PRO-TIPS:
🔴 This doesn't just work for rainbow, but for any gradient! Experiment with grayscale, pastels, a lovely emerald-to-sage fade...
🟡 If you're wanting a rainbow effect, I had the most luck by tapping on the red colour swatch, then tapping in the middle of the colour selector and dragging.
🟢 The first letter in your selection is the last to get coloured, and the pattern tends to "jump" unnaturally here. To get a natural gradient all the way through, double the first letter, add your gradient, then circle back and delete it. Ie. I wrote "RRainbow Text" (two R's) here.
🔵 Samsung users, this doesn't work with your stylus! Gotta use your fingers 🤪👋

These 3 websites are MUSTS for anyone working with a client who simply doesn't take many photos of their business, or a start-up who hasn't yet invested in photography 🧐
These websites collect photos, videos, and music that creators have given permission for anyone to use, with no credit required.
📸🎥 PEXELS.COM
My #1 go-to! All photo and video content here is free of cost, but you do have the option of donating to a creator if you enjoy their content. No account required, simply download your choice in the size that you'd like!
📸🎨 UNSPLASH.COM
In my opinion, this is a more developed version of Pexels, focusing on photography and illustrations only. They seem to have a stronger filtering process than Pexels for high-resolution, beautiful, artistic photography. They also have a visual search function!
🎥🎶 COVERR.CO
Free video and stock music! Note that most of this video footage is horizontal. While all of this content is free, if you want to unlock them at their highest quality, you will need to join their membership program, Coverr Plus.
As always, it's a good idea to check each individual website's license to ensure you're using this content correctly.
