6. Stay in the Safe Zone

  • Instagram and Facebook UI have many elements in the 9x16 format that will overlap with your video.

  • As a rule of thumb, your written content should appear in the upper middle zone so that it can easily be seen.

  • To be more precise, plan your ad through Meta's Ad Preview Tool.

7. Audio and Text That Sticks

  • Use voiceovers for a clear sound - record on a voice memo app, then export to CapCut or After Effects.

  • Add captions to highlight your main points and offer. Use outlined text or bubble blocks for optimal legibility.
