How to create an Instagram Reel 

To create a captivating Instagram Reel, start by selecting the best photos and videos that tell your story. Use the app's editing tools and templates to trim, merge, and adjust your clips. Apply filters, music, and effects to enhance the visual appeal.

Once your visual content is set, it's time to focus on the voice. This is where ElevenLabs comes into play.

Voiceovers: the secret to a successful reel

Want to distance yourself from a sea of Instagram creators? A good place to start is with a unique-sounding voice. A compelling voiceover transforms a simple reel into an engaging narrative. It allows you to add context, emotion, and personality to your videos.

With ElevenLabs Speech Synthesis, you can generate natural-sounding voiceovers in real time. The model is built to understand and apply context, making your reels more impactful and memorable. ElevenLabs' Voice Library boasts a wide variety of voices, while it even supports 29 different languages.

Here are just a few examples of what ElevenLabs' synthetic speech sounds like in action.

How AI helps save time on video voiceovers 

Using AI to generate voiceovers for Instagram Reels makes content creation more efficient as well as more unique.

Creators looking for a non-robotic voiceover typically use their own voice in their videos. This is a long process with several steps: scriptwriting, recording, and then editing to ensure the audio matches the video perfectly. This method isn’t only time-consuming, but also prone to errors and inconsistencies, requiring re-takes and adjustments that could extend the production time.

ElevenLabs' AI-driven text-to-speech technology addresses these challenges head-on.  

Here’s how it works.

1. Instantaneous conversion: Once you input your script into ElevenLabs, the AI immediately converts text into spoken words. This eliminates the need for scheduling recording sessions and dealing with the complexities of audio equipment.

2. Consistent quality: The AI ensures that every voiceover maintains a consistent tone and pace, which is often hard to achieve in manual recordings. This uniformity is crucial for creators who want to keep a professional sound across all their videos.

3. Flexibility in voice selection: ElevenLabs offers a variety of voices and accents, allowing creators to match the voiceover to the theme and demographic of their Reel. This adaptability saves time and care that would otherwise be spent auditioning and selecting voice actors.

4. Effortless integration: The AI-generated audio can be directly synchronized with your video clips within the app, reducing the manual labor involved in editing and syncing audio tracks.

5. Error correction and adjustments: Comment telling you you've made a mistake? Thankfully, edits to the script can be updated in the voiceover almost instantly, ensuring that corrections and last-minute changes are no longer a time sink.
