As the whole damn world knows by now, Instagram enabled video yesterday.
The new function allows users to take 15-second videos with the same functionality as Vine (R.I.P.)and apply one of 13 new filters to create a cinematic quality.
Thailand’s Instagram community, perhaps the most active in the world, obviously embraced the new function with gusto.
Here’s what Thailand’s stars have been doing with the new video feature on Instagram today.
