The video is a humorous exploration of various photo and video hacks found on Instagram. The host and her friend Tyler attempt to recreate these hacks, which range from forced perspective shots to prop hacks, equipment hacks, transition effects, and simple editing techniques.
They start with a forced perspective hack, where they try to make a tiny person seem to jump into a teacup. This requires them to stand on a bench and drop a rock into the teacup to create a splash. They also attempt a prop hack, where they simulate a "Singing in the Rain" effect using a water bottle and an umbrella.
Next, they explore equipment hacks, which involve enhancing or simulating the effects of having fancier equipment. They attempt a hack that involves using a construction-paper cut-out of a heart to create a bokeh effect, but they find it difficult to execute.
They then try a transition hack where they stomp on the ground and then flip their phone to create the illusion of walking forwards while everyone around them walks the other direction.
Finally, they attempt the simplest hack, where they walk backwards and then play the footage backwards to make it look like they're walking forwards. However, they struggle to find continuous footage of people walking.
Throughout the video, they also promote their new merch line, "Fiends by Saf," which includes a range of clothing items.
In conclusion, they find the hacks to be entertaining but not necessarily effective, and they question whether they will get more likes on Instagram by following these hacks.
