Answered by Stephen Mosley

To make an Instagram video with music, you can follow these simple steps:

1. Open the Instagram app on your mobile device. Ensure that you have the latest version of the app installed.

2. Tap on the “+” icon at the bottom of the screen. This will take you to the camera interface where you can create a new Instagram Story.

3. Once you are in the Stories camera, you have two options. You can either shoot a new video by pressing and holding the capture button, or you can swipe up to access your Camera Roll and select a video that you have already recorded.

4. After you have chosen your video, you can add music to it. To do this, tap on the sticker button at the top of the screen. It looks like a square smiley face.

5. Among the various sticker options, you will find the “music” sticker. Tap on it to add it to your video.

6. Once you have added the music sticker, you can browse through Instagram’s music library to choose a song that you want to add to your video. You can search for specific songs, artists, or genres using the search bar at the top of the screen.

7. After selecting a song, you can choose the segment of the song you want to include in your video. Instagram allows you to select up to 15 seconds of the song. You can drag the slider to adjust the starting point of the song.

8. You can also customize the appearance of the music sticker by tapping on it. This will bring up options for different visual styles and layouts for the sticker.

9. Additionally, you can choose to display the song’s lyrics on your video. This can be done by tapping on the lyrics button on the top left corner of the screen. You can select different font styles and customize the appearance of the lyrics as well.

10. Once you are satisfied with the music and sticker settings, you can further edit your video by adding text, filters, or other stickers to enhance your Instagram Story.

11. When you are ready to post your video, tap on the “Your Story” button at the bottom of the screen. This will make your video visible to your followers in your Instagram Story for 24 hours.

By following these steps, you can easily create an Instagram video with music and share it with your followers. Remember to be creative and have fun while making your videos!
