I’d say I spend a little time every day scrolling TikTok and Instagram, but it’s intentional I’m actively looking for trending sounds, formats, and content styles to adapt for my own videos rather than just passively watching. This way, I stay up to date on what’s performing while turning that time into part of my content research process.

Movie Scene Remake – Put yourself into a famous movie moment (Titanic “I’m the king of the world,” Wolf of Wall Street “sell me this pen”) using Viggle’s motion transfer. Before & After AI Transformation – Show a raw clip → transition into the same clip styled with a dramatic Viggle effect. Brand in Different Eras – Take a product and show it in a 90s sitcom style, 2000s music video style, and futuristic sci-fi style. POV: You’re in a Trending TV Show – Insert yourself into the latest viral Netflix or HBO series scene. Product in the Wrong Movie – Place a product into a completely unrelated film for comedic effect (e.g., Starbucks cup in Game of Thrones).

I keep up with trends by actively monitoring TikTok’s For You page, Instagram Reels, and trending audio charts daily, as well as following niche-specific creators to spot emerging formats early. I also save and categorize trending sounds, hooks, and visual styles so I can quickly adapt them into content that aligns with my brand or campaign goals.
