LCC Social Media Guidelines | 4.2 SNACK CONTENT: CREATE QUICK MULTIMEDIA CONTENTS YOURSELF S.2

4.2.2 SNACK CONTENT: SHORT VIDEOS, GIFS, MEMES, ETC.

Snack content is a real eye-catcher. Animated pictures, cool expressions or video loops create more attention - and transfer content at one glance.

In the following, we present you the most important snack content types with some app tips:

Animated GIFs

GIFs are long runners in snack content. The choice of mobile apps is huge: GIPHY, in particular, offers apps and desktop tools for all purposes at giphy.com. For demanding iOS users, we recommend Gifx.

Memes

Memes are pictures with funny or cool sayings. You can create them easily at MemeGenerator.net or imgur.com.

Vine Camera

Vine Camera allows you to create 6-second video loops. These videos can be posted directly on Twitter or saved on your mobile phone. Stop motion videos are particularly effective!

Cinemagraphs

Cinemagraphs - vieos with a "frozen" part - are very appealing. In addition to the professional Cinemagraph Pro app, we recommend you to try the free-of-charge MaskArt app (only iOS)!
