How to Create a .GIF and Upload It to Instagram
In today’s episode, we show you how to create a before and after image in Photoshop. After that, we show you how to animate it as an animated gif. Then to top it all off, we show you how to upload your .gif to Instagram.
GETTING STARTED
We start off with a normal .psd file. We strip all of the adjustments off of the image until we are down to the original. After that, we create a new layer within Photoshop. On that new layer we go to Image -- Apply Image. From there you want to make sure your settings reflect the settings you see in the video. Once you hit OK, you will get a copy of everything you see, on a new layer. Now you have a before & after. Next is adding the animation!
ADDING ANIMATION
Since our final destination in this case is Instagram, we need to create a format that we know will work well for the application. After we have our desired dimensions, we have 3 layers to work with. A background layer, an original layer of our image with no changes, and the final image with the changes we’ve made in photoshop. Turning these layers on and off will help identify which is our before and after. Now it’s time to animate our image. We use the video timeline to create a frame animation. Frame animation just allows us to create individual frames. Now we click -- Make frames from layers. Now we have 2 frames in our animation, the before frame and the after frame. We set the duration to 2 seconds, meaning every 2 seconds the frame will switch from before to after.
EXPORT SETTINGS
Now that we have our frames loaded into our animation, it’s time to make sure our export settings are perfect. We changed the duration of the timeline to forever. So now the image we see will constantly shift from the before to after.
UPLOADING TO INSTAGRAM
Next we show you how to email the file to yourself and upload the image to Instagram. From there you can choose any filters or other options that Instagram offers.

Hello!! I was trying to find a Tutorial for posting pro photos on instagram... I see lot's of photographers posting beautiful sharp imagens, but mines are not that sharp. Can you help? Thanks!
I have never seen a more thorough and easy to follow tutorial. THANK YOU!
I just wanted to say thank you for this. I gave up on shooting action sequence shots because I didn't know what to do with them. This has taken photos that are near 8 years old and put life back into them. Thank you for the simple and straight forward guide.
You have taught me so much Aaron !!! Keep up the awesome yoda tutorials
Literally you made my day easier! AMAZING tutorial! Thank you sooooo much! Greetings from Argentina
OMFG!!! Thank you guys!!! Just what I needed!!!
Thank you Master Aaron !! Great as usual !!
thanks so much PHLEARN...the tutorial is awesome.
I have been searching everywhere on how to upload a GIF to Instagram. Thanks so much for this video!
This was EXACTLY what I was looking for! I'm at my marketing foundation stage in my personal music/photography business and this has saved me tons of stress and headache! If everything plans out, I'd love to share some of my profits for your time and effort for teaching us these things for free. You're helping out so many people and giving us the power to do these amazing things on our own. I don't know where I'd be at this point in my life without you guys @Plearn. Thank you! ^_^ I also entered my photo to your contest on the 22ed. Even if I don't win, I want you guys to know that you have given me the courage to put my work out there and show the world my stuff -- even when I never had the guts to do it before. I finally believe in my photos and have decide to put in the proper value for them. Thank you again for that! :D
You explained that really well, thanks very much. Thorough enough for people who don't know too much but not too slow. Very informative, cheers!
Awesome....though I already knew this, just needed to learn the rendering to video part. Nice channel, been a long time subscriber. keep them coming! ;)

I find Dropbox works just as well for sending from the computer to phone for uploading to Instagram. Always nice to learn a new trick or two about photoshop.
love this video thank you so much
This is great. thanks One question: when I export the video became only 1 sec even if my gif is in infinity. And later instagram only aloud upload 3 sec + videos.
I love it!!
YAAAAS! Thank you so much!
Just what i needed to watch (:
thanks, this video was so helpful
Dropbox is the fastest way if you have the app on your phone, their practically instantly! Very helpful video!

Very helpful tutorial!
I'm totes late but this was a great tutorial! Thanks Aaron!! Also, I use google drive to get my images from my lappy to phone.
Thanks - great video!
best teacher ever.
It would be super useful if content notes included the times each section starts. That way a person could come back to a video to see how to do only that one step (for the instance of forgetting exactly how to export, etc.) Thanks for your great tutorial videos.
This is Awesome! Thank You :)
Aaron Nace, thank you so much ... I really love your channel #biggestfan #biggestlove #bestvideos
Awesome as always...
You are the Best!!!
I was just thinking about this. I recently discovered that moving GIF images can be shared on Facebook. Very interesting!

Super Cool ! Excellent tutorial ! Greetings 😉👍
AirDrop is the best way for Apple-to-Apple transfer! Emailing will sometimes be difficult for large file loads, so I tend to stick to using Google Drive or another option similar.
nice I was just thinking about posting a berfore/after. This is much better than a side by side
Thank you so much for this!!!!!!!! I never knew we could export videos from Photoshop!

u can even import short video clip into photoshop by importing it as frames and edit each frame adding some effects and export it again as GIF or video again,There are even programs online which you can use to overlay a GIF into a still picture (or a still picture overlay to a gif ) and export it as GIF or video
Cool Tutorial!! Thank you!!
