Trim IG Reel

1) Sign up for Descript for free. You get one free hour of transcription each month, and no credit card is needed to get started.

2) Upload your video by dragging and dropping it into the project window. Descript will handle the rest.

3) After the transcription is complete, highlight and delete the parts of the transcript you want to remove by hitting backspace. Alternatively, you can trim the IG Reel directly by opening the "Show Timeline" tab in the bottom left and selecting the sections of the video you wish to delete.

4) Once you're satisfied with the edits, share your newly trimmed IG Reel by clicking on the Publish button and then selecting "Export." You can also download the file to your desired location.
