What to Post on Instagram This Fall 2020
The ultimate list of fall social media content ideas for small business owners, influencers and creators
Agree or disagree: fall is the most Instagrammable season. Pumpkin spice lattes, fall fashion, changing leaves, Halloween… the list goes on. But, how do you make your #pumpkinspicelatte Instagram photo stand out from 608,000 others (yes, that’s how many people have used the hashtag)?
Stop motion! We’ve pulled together a list of fall social media content ideas for small business owners, influencers and creators in a variety of categories from fashion, lifestyle to food. As a small team ourselves, we were able to create enough content to last us all autumn long within four hours, and all with our phone and our stop motion app, Life Lapse. If you don’t have Life Lapse, you can download it for Android or iOS here.
Below is the list of ideas and inspiration but follow along on our blog, Instagram or YouTube to get the step-by-step tutorial on each of these stop motion videos all month long. If you try these fall video ideas, be sure to tag us on Instagram or use hashtag #lifelapse - we’d love to see and share!
