New this week
The formats filling feeds right now.
Holiday defrost
The season-kickoff post: you thaw out of a block of ice as the lights come on, the moment the holiday music starts.
How to post it: Post it on the day you first play holiday music, with the thaw timed to the first note of the song.
Mini me steps out
The figurine trend, moving: a collectible-size you climbs out of your own phone grid and onto the desk.
How to post it: Pin it to the top of your profile: the phone in the clip shows a grid, so it reads as you stepping off your own page.
Shoulder bounce
A simple shoulder-bounce routine in falling snow, easy enough that it works on anyone, from one photo.
How to post it: Line the first shoulder pop up with the beat drop and keep the loop under six seconds.
Selfie with Santa
The selfie that suddenly has Santa leaning into the frame: the easiest holiday post of the year.
How to post it: Send it to the family group chat first; it lands best as a 'look who I ran into' message.
Snowfall runway
A runway walk through falling snow under camera flashes, for the outfit you're proudest of this winter.
How to post it: Cut the clip on the hip pop at the end of the runway and pair it with a slow, dramatic sound.
Snow angel
A top-down snow angel that moves, for anyone who won't see real snow this year.
How to post it: Post it as a slow, looping Reel; the overhead shot also holds up in a square crop.
Vintage holiday cartoon
You as a mid-century hand-drawn holiday special, with original characters and that warm storybook look.
How to post it: Use the still as your holiday card and the clip as a Story; the flat colors stay crisp when people screenshot it.
Holiday season
December favourites, worth making before the day.
Christmas lights
A cosy night walk under strings of lights with a hot drink: the December photo dump opener.
How to post it: Post it as a holiday-card video for friends and family.
Ugly sweater party
The office-party classic: a loud knit, a dance move and a straight face.
How to post it: Caption it with a rating out of ten and invite friends to beat it.
Snow globe
You inside a shaken snow globe, for a card, a countdown or a profile picture that moves.
How to post it: Post it as a holiday card video for friends and family.
Christmas market
Mulled wine and wooden stalls, for the trip you're taking or the one you wish you were.
How to post it: Tag the city and post it as a holiday-weekend recap.
Friendsgiving toast
The long table and the group toast, for the Friendsgiving post before the plates come out.
How to post it: Post it as the cover of a Friendsgiving dump and tag the host.
New Year's Eve
Confetti and the countdown, ready before midnight instead of the morning after.
How to post it: Post it at midnight with your resolution as the caption.
Gift unboxing
Your product being unwrapped on camera: gift-guide content without a shoot.
How to post it: Post it as a gift-guide Reel with a price and a link.
Always working
Formats that keep getting reposted, any month.
Boy-band dance
A full music-video routine from one full-length photo, with the arm hits and the spin.
How to post it: Start the clip on the first beat of the sound and keep it to one loop; the routine reads best uncut.
Slow-mo squad walk
The slow-motion group walk that every squad posts once a year.
How to post it: Use an epic movie-trailer sound and post it as a Reel.
Disco revival
Mirror balls and sequins, the party-season look that never quite goes away.
How to post it: Pair it with a disco or funk sound and keep the caption to the date of the party.
Time-travel vlog
The vlogger who turns up somewhere centuries ago, talking straight to the camera.
How to post it: Add your own voiceover as if you're vlogging from the past.
Fan transition
A fan sweeps across the frame and the outfit changes: the transition everyone tries once.
How to post it: Cut it to a fast sound so each outfit lands on a beat.
Photo booth couple
A strip of photo-booth frames that come to life, for couples and best friends.
How to post it: Post it as a Story with the date, or print the strip as a gift.
Floating sneaker
A product floating and turning in mid-air: the drop-day shot for sneakers, bags and gadgets.
How to post it: Use it as a launch-day ad and product-page loop.
Fragrance splash
A bottle caught in a slow-motion splash, the classic perfume-ad shot, made from your own product photo.
How to post it: Use it as a product-page hero and an ad still; it holds up at full width.
Ice skincare
Skincare set on ice with frost creeping in, for a clean, cold launch post or a winter promo.
How to post it: Use it as a 5-second ad or a product-page video loop.
