No wonder many creators are vying to make their IG feed as good as possible, maybe they even hire an editor to make the pictures even better.

Not only that, your Engagement Rate also increases by making a good feed display. ER can also be used as a reference to the value of your account in the eyes of clients.

To create serialized content or Carousel itself is not difficult. You can use several existing graphic design applications.

For this meeting I will show you how to create a Carousel with Canva, Powerpoint and Adobe Photoshop. You can also create Carousel ads on Instagram with Canva.

If you still don’t understand, Caraousel itself is a content on Instagram with more than 2 slides and the content from slide to slide has a continuous design. This means that the design of each slide was always orderly and not messy. Oh yes, the maximum slide limit is 10 slides per post.

Let’s move on to creating a carousel with Canva. I prefer to create a carousel on Instagram via the Canva app.

So far, this application is the most memorable for me, especially because of the ease of making the Carousel via an Android cellphone, so there’s no need to be sad if you don’t have a laptop.

To use it yourself, you don’t have to have a premium account, you can do it for free. But it will be a plus if your Canva is premium, because there are many Raw Designs that you can try.

If you are a laptop user and want to create a Carouseul Instagram with Photosop and Powerpoint, you can skip this step.

  1. First step choose[Create Design]to create the desired template design.
  2. Choose a custom size, because you will create a connecting post, you have to create the template design manually.
  3. Make the design size you want, for the standard Instagram feed size, which is 1,080 x 1,080 pixels. Since I’m going to make 5 slides, so I just wrote the size 5040 (width) x 1,080 (height).
  4. Content design. You should play your imagination freely to create content. Moreover, Canva has provided a large selection of photos, fonts, backgrounds and various other features that are even available for free.
  5. Choose the right composition to make the background color, choose photos, choose writing fonts, so that the results are more beautiful and pleasing to the eye.
  6. Select save. If you have finished making the design, then save it by tapping download. Choose the photo format you want, if I usually use the JPG format, other than that, choose the image quality to be 100 percent, so the results look clearer.

Unlike the first version, for the second version, you only need to have a quota that is not as big as installing the Canva application.

  1. Login to Canva Online, click here (https://www.canva.com/id_id/) or if you haven’t registered yet, tap register, you can use a google account.
  2. Tap on section [Buat Desain],
  3. Tap on [Ukuran Khusus]you can try the size of 2160×1080 pixels.
  4. Just fill it up. Make it as interesting as possible, so that you are more satisfied with the results.
  1. After you have saved the design results. The next step you have to cut the photo into two parts.
  2. For that you need Grid Maker, actually there are many other similar applications, but I’m used to this application.
  3. If you haven’t downloaded another application, I suggest you just download this Grid Maker. Grid Maker is an Instagram feed application whose results are cool and good.
  4. Then you tap the Grid Maker menu. Find and select the design results that you have saved. There are various sizes available in this Grid Maker application, you can try selecting 2×1, and tap the Checklist sign.
  5. Save and done

Designing in Canva seems easy, but if you know the tips and tricks, the results will be even better and neater. Here are design tips and tricks in Canva:

  1. Choose a soft background color, so that it remains comfortable to see. Never choose a background color that is too contrasting, because it’s a pity that your followers see colors that hurt their eyes.
  2. Choose a writing font that you think is clear and good, so that it is easy to read and attractive. Fit the size, not too big or too small.
  3. Choose the right background color so it doesn’t collide with the writing color
  4. Use high-resolution photos, can be above 1080 pixels to make it clearer and clearer.

For the next method, which is Photoshop, you must have at least a laptop to be able to follow how to make a Carousel on this Laptop/PC. Here are the steps to make a Carousel with Photoshop on PC and Laptop:

  1. The first step is to open your Adobe Photoshop application.
  2. Create a file with the size you usually use, you can 1080×1080. Don’t be OK just yet.
  3. The essence of the Carousel itself is a lot of slides, so use the following formula (the number of slides you want X 1080)x1080 pixels. For example, I want to make 5 slides, so I enter 5040×1080.
  4. Tap OK
  5. Cut the canvas earlier, you can use the Slice tool. You do this by clicking on the [Crop Tool] select [Slice Tool] then right click on the canvas, then select [Divide Slice]
  6. Then a panel will appear [Divide Slice]you checklist in the section [Divide Vertically Into] and cut it into 5 parts. Then you will see the canvas is cut into 5 parts.
  7. To make it easier for you to know the limits and, you add [Guide Ruler] in every part. This section will also make it easier for you to create content in an orderly and continuous manner
  8. Edit the contents of the canvas according to your wishes, if you have you can proceed to the ninth step.
  9. To save the results, you click File>Export>Save for Webor the short way is by using the shortcut ALT+SHIFT+CTRL+S
