Download the Instagram After Effects Template Here.
First you will need After Effects, Final Cut pro, or Adobe Premiere. A trial version of the software will work also from the Adobe Website.
Create a new composition that is 1000×1000 pixels in size. Choose Square Pixels and 29 to 30 frames per second will be fine.
Now lets import that nice video you have stored on your hard drive. Or it can even be a comp that you created in after effects. Now drop the file into your 1000×1000 composition. And please remember this video can only be 15 seconds long.
You will notice in the composition that the aspect ratio of your video is incorrect. You should scale the video up so that the entire frame is full of video (or you can keep the letter box look)
Next choose the Add to Render Que at the top of the after effects window.
Choose Quicktime Movie with a codec of H.264. Change the quality to 70%.
Make sure that the audio box is also checked.
Now save the video to your desktop.
