IGTV CHEAT SHEET IGTV In a Nutshell: Instagram TV launched in June, 2018 and is a video only platform. IGTV can be accessed through a stand-alone app or from the main feed of Instagram. IGTV posts can also be linked and shared in Instagram Stories. Videos can be uploaded from camera roll or via browser. IGTV Video Size Guidelines: 720 x 1280 1080 x 1920 2160 x 3840 (4K) IGTV Recommended Video Length: 15 seconds minimum — 10 minutes maximum Up to 1 hour if you have more than 10,000 followers Four Tips for Using IGTV 1. Shoot in Vertical Format While it is possible to shoot a video using a traditional camera, editing a horizontal video to fit a vertical format will result in a video that clearly wasn't meant to be watched in vertical mode. Your end video may appear grainy not to mention parts of the video will be cut off, resulting in poor viewer experience. Premium WordPress Themes & Plugins for Sports Teams www.themeboy.com 2. Hook Them Within First Three Seconds Needless to say, you have a short amount of time to capture your viewer's attention. According to research, most users swipe or click through to the next video on the first frame so it's important to hook them into your content right from the start. 3. Keep in Mind the Fast Pace Up until now, Instagram content (whether it's stories or regular posts) were geared to be consumed on the go. As such, you have to keep in mind the fast-paced nature of the app and its users who are used to this type of content so ensure your videos accommodate for this. Show them content that corresponds to on-the-go lifestyle: your team on tour, behind the scenes videos, brief features, and similar. 4. Make Use of Analytics Lastly, make sure to keep an eye on your analytics using the Insights tab. This will show you which content resonates with your audience and which content is not doing so well so you can improve your content over time Premium WordPress Themes & Plugins for Sports Teams www.themeboy.com.

Do You Know Your Instagram from Your Tiktok, Twitter Or Tumblr?
Do you know your Instagram from your TikTok, Twitter or Tumblr? If not, we have created some basic Instagram tutorials on YouTube (see links be- low) to get your club onto Instagram and posting in no time! Why Instagram? • Great engagement with younger age group ie. 13-17 y/o compared to Face- book • Easy to post – take photos and videos on rally days, competitions and camps, or re-post your members photos. Some tips for using Instagram • Engagement is more important than followers - remember, it’s not a compe- tition! Instagram is a really great tool to keep connected with your younger members, and also reach potential new members • Having a business account will allow you to see your engagements, profile visits, audience demographics, and also when your audience is online the most (to help you to determine the best time to post) • Remember to adhere to the Pony Club NSW Social Media Policy, which can be found here. A good rule is if you are questioning whether it is appro- priate to post, it probably isn’t! • All Instagram users must be at least 13 years or older to have their own ac- count. • Don’t share photos posted on members pages without asking them for per- mission first, and make sure you credit them for use of their image. • Use a club email address to make your Instagram account, that way if the person looking after the account moves on from the club, the login details can be passed onto the new person responsible (succession planning). Instagram vs Facebook We have found at a state level, our Facebook followers are generally older than our Instagram followers, so we customise our approach depending on the plat- form.

Visual Social Media and Big Data. Interpreting Instagram Images Posted on Twitter
Visual Social Media and Big Data Interpreting Instagram Images Posted on Twitter Dhiraj Murthy, Alexander Gross, Marisa McGarry Abstract Social media such as Twitter and Instagram are fast, free, and multi- cast. These attributes make them particularly useful for crisis commu- nication. However, the speed and volume also make them challenging to study. Historically, journalists controlled what/how images repre- sented crises. Large volumes of social media can change the politics of representing disasters. However, methodologically, it is challenging to study visual social media data. Specifically, the process is usually labour-intensive, using human coding of images to discern themes and subjects. For this reason, Studies investigating social media during crises tend to examine text. In addition, application programming interfaces (APIs) for visual social media services such as Instagram and Snapchat are restrictive or even non-existent. Our work uses images posted by Instagram users on Twitter during Hurricane Sandy as a case study. This particular case is unique as it is perhaps the first US disaster where Instagram played a key role in how victims experi- enced Sandy. It is also the last major US disaster to take place before Instagram images were removed from Twitter feeds. Our sample con- sists of 11,964 Instagram images embedded into tweets during a two- week timeline surrounding Hurricane Sandy. We found that the pro- duction and consumption of selfies, food/drink, pets, and humorous macro images highlight possible changes in the politics of representing disasters – a potential turn from top-down understandings of disas- ters to bottom-up, citizen informed views.

This book or any portion thereof may not be reproduced or used in any manner whatsoever without the express written permission of the publisher except for the use of brief quotations in a book review. What Is Instagram? Instagram is a photo and video sharing social media site. It was designed for mobile use with the intention that users would take photos on their mobile devices then upload the images “instantly” through the Instagram app. Like most social media sites, the intention is to connect users with friends, family, colleagues, and other users with similar interests. The platform is primarily visually based with the emphasis on large, creative images. Instagram also offers a variety of filters for both photos and videos that allow users to edit and enhance their posts for maximum appeal. Instagram was purchased by Facebook in 2012, catapulting it to the forefront of social media popularity. While it succeeded on its own prior to the Facebook acquisition, Facebook has provided resources and abilities to expand the site. Almost exactly one year after the Facebook deal, Instagram reached the milestone 150 million monthly active users. This is such an important milestone is that Instagram reached this number faster than Facebook, Pinterest, Twitter, and LinkedIn! The only site that has achieved this milestone faster than Instagram is Google+. The popularity of the site continues to grow and it continues to amass more new users every day. When the site first launched, the primary demographic was younger users in the 14-25 demographic.

The Tiktok Phenomenon and the Rise of Short Form Video
PRACTICE MANAGEMENT | SOCIAL MEDIA | F YOU’RE ONE OF THOSE PEOPLE SCRATCHING their heads to understand how TikTok arose as the social network everyone, even the President of the US, is talking about, you’re not alone. TikTok is a social media phenomenon. It all started in 2016. TikTok is owned by the IChinese company ByteDance that was founded by software developer Zhang Yiming in 2012. TikTok started out as two distinct apps that ultimately merged; Musical.ly and Douyin. Musical.ly was founded in 2014 as a short- form app where users could create and share 15-second lip-sync music videos. Douyin was launched as a short- form video app in 2016. Douyin’s popularity skyrocketed and within a year, it had 100 million users and 1 billion video views daily.1 In September 2017, they expanded outside of China to select international markets as TikTok. The platform’s fame quickly rose in Thailand, Japan, India, and other markets in Asia, and the US TikTok apps for Apple and Android devices popped up in 2017. For Beijing-based ByteDance, the TikTok explosion was a happy accident. It was like a ‘right place, right time’ twist of fate. Finally, Musical.ly switched over to TikTok in August 2018 and the rest is history. The destination for short-form mobile video The TikTok app allows users to create, share and discover 15-second videos that are set to music, or to connect a few short clips for up to 60 seconds and add special effects and filters. Short-form video content is trending in social media circles around the world.

Apps Parents Need to Know
Apps Parents Need to Know Twitter What is it? Twitter is a microblogging site that allows users to post brief, 140-character messages -- called "tweets" -- and follow other users' activities. Why is it popular? Teens like using it to share quick tidbits about their lives with friends. It's also great for keeping up with what's going on in the world -- breaking news, celebrity gossip, etc. What do you need to know? 1. Public tweets are the norm for teens. Though you can choose to keep your tweets private, most teens report having public accounts (Pew Internet & American Life Project, 2013). Talk to your kids about what they post and how a post can spread far and fast. 2. Updates appear immediately. Even though you can remove tweets, your followers can still read what you wrote until it's gone. This can get kids in trouble if they say something in the heat of the moment. 3. It's a promotional tool for celebs. Twitter reels teens in with behind-the-scenes access to celebrities' lives, adding a whole new dimension to celebrity worship. You may want to point out how much marketing strategy goes into the tweets of those they admire. Instagram What is it? Instagram is a platform that lets users snap, edit and share photos and 15-second videos -- either publicly or with a network of followers. Why is it popular? Instagram unites the most popular features of social media sites: sharing, seeing and commenting on photos. Instagram also lets you apply fun filters and effects to your photos, making them look high quality and artistic.
