Hello friends, and welcome to another video.

00:08

Today, I'm going to be trying out questionable photo and video hacks from Instagram.

00:13

Now previously, we've tried recreating some odd, sort of silent movie-esque beauty and fashion hacks

00:20

that are all over Instagram,

00:23

with pretty mediocre results.

00:24

And since then, we've stumbled upon yet another bizarre family of how-to videos:

00:30

photo and video hacks,

00:32

which are meant to teach you how to take artistic like-bait Instagram photos,

00:36

as well as uniquely edited videos that will have you going a-viral.

00:42

Now while some of these hacks and videos are kind of cute,

00:45

a lot of them seem to fall into the "is-that-even-good?" and the "there's-no-way-that-works" categories.

00:52

There's also sort of an intriguing meta-ness to these hacks,

00:55

where they're trying to get views on Instagram by teaching people how to get views on Instagram.

01:01

So they're able to justify using a click-baity thumbnail, because they're teaching YOU how to click-bait.

01:07

Now overall, I would say these videos are still in the early stages of being produced,

01:12

as they're not quite yet as spammed to the masses as, say, beauty tutorials or clothing hacks,

01:18

but mark my words: the flood is coming.

01:20

As the few that we have found on Instagram or re-posted to YouTube

01:24

have ridiculously high view counts,

01:27

and usually with these Instagram hack videos,

01:30

once there is blood in the water, there tend to be many copy-sharks ready to hack at the chum.

01:36

So I thought it would be fun to jump on this bandwagon and try some out myself.

01:41

But before we dive in,

01:42

I also wanted to let you guys know that we just launched our first merch drop / clothing line,

01:48

which is called "Fiends by Saf"

01:50

or, I guess, "by me"

01:51

which includes this shirt I'm wearing right here,

01:54

as well as few others we've shown on Instagram,

01:56

but we'll show you the whole line at the end of the video.

01:59

Also, no, there's no relation to "Best Fiends."

02:03

All right. Let's get to hacking.

02:05

Now, from watching a few of these videos on Instagram,

02:08

but also versions that were re-posted onto YouTube and Facebook,

02:12

I would say that there a few different categories that these hacks fall into,

02:16

and the first category that we're going to tackle is the forced perspective hack.

02:20

Now I would define forced perspective as kind of like optical illusions,

02:25

where you can make your subject seem bigger or smaller

02:29

or at a different angle in relation to the objects around them

02:32

to create a titillating image.

02:34

I feel like the classic example of this is the "holding-up -the-Leaning-Tower-of-Pisa" photo

02:39

and these hackers LOVE this trick,

02:42

whether it be a watermelon dress, falling off the side of the sidewalk

02:47

ahem,

02:47

blowing dudes off your hand.

02:49

popping out of a chapstick holder, or tricking women on Tinder into thinking you have a Lambo,

02:55

which is the subject of an extended play-out in this video by Crafty Panda.

03:00

But the hack we're gonna be taking on is the classic tiny woman jumping into teacup.

03:05

So this video was posted by diy.learning, but it was freebooted from 5-Minute Crafts

03:11

and this version has, like, 40 million views,

03:14

which is sort of disappointing, because 5-Minute Crafts' original posted video

03:18

only has 10 million views.

03:20

Freebooting wins again on Instagram.

03:22

So basically for this hack, it seems that you need two people,

03:26

a mug, a rock, and some water ...

03:28

and also a camera.

03:29

Tyler: Definitely that.

03:30

Saf: So basically, you have one person who's, like, really close to the mug with the camera,

03:34

and then you have another person who is the "fall-ee," who jumps and then compresses,

03:39

to pretend to have jumped into the cup.

03:42

Once that happens, the person who's holding the camera

03:44

drops the rock into the cup to create a little splash.

03:48

And then, afterwards, you edit out the rock so you just see the jump and the splash.

03:53

So for this hack and, I guess, most of these hacks,

03:56

we're gonna have to go out into the world.

03:58

So I guess we'll go out, try it out,

03:59

and see what happens.

04:01

Tyler: You gotta compact jump, Saf.

04:03

Saf: So we headed out to a park, where we found a picnic bench that I could

04:06

stand on top of and then jump off of,

04:09

and we tried a few test shots without the rock, just to make sure, like,

04:13

Tyler could get the cup lined up properly for that real forced perspective.

04:17

Tyler: Oh okay, that looks pretty good.

04:18

Saf: And also to perfect my jumping technique, which we quickly found out was bad.

04:23

Tyler: You gotta condense faster.

04:24

Saf: I can't. I don't know how.

04:27

Oh, like this?

04:28

Tyler: Yeah, you gotta frog-squat.

04:30

Tyler: No, that's really slow.

04:31

Saf: Once we introduced the water and the rock, though,

04:34

we quickly found out that it's difficult to both hold the camera

04:37

and also drop the rock.

04:39

[Loud clank as rock hits the rim of the mug, Tyler laughing]

04:41

Saf: How was that?

04:41

Tyler: I missed!

04:42

Saf: So to solve this problem, we had one of our editors, Emily, drop the rock--

04:47

I feel like that sounds weird for some reason.

04:49

Tyler: It sounds like she's taking a dump.

04:50

Saf: So Tyler could just focus on the cinematography.

04:52

Tyler: This is like a Michael Bay film.

04:54

Tyler: Okay, you're dancing on the side of a pool.

04:57

Saf: I'm warm! I wanna take a dip in this teacup.

05:00

Tyler: Don't make a tea joke.

05:01

Saf: I'm swimming in tea!

05:03

Tyler: God damn it.

05:04

Saf: And with our new set-up, we got some better results.

05:06

Tyler: Oh, sh*t.
