Get started ->
Create a new project in Descript where you can start recording from scratch or upload your existing videos, images, and audio.
Use the transcript-based editor to make edits to your video. Highlight text and hit backspace to trim your video, or add AI voiceovers, captions, shapes, waveforms, animations, and more. Arrange these elements to your liking in the canvas, or apply one of our many Instagram video templates.
When your video is ready, click Publish to download your Instagram video as an MP4 you can upload to Instagram or your social media scheduling app. You can then create variations for other Instagram formats like Reels or Stories by duplicating it it to a new composition while preserving the original.
