In the world of Instagram Reels and TikTok, “Attitude” videos are dominating the charts. Whether it’s showcasing your squad’s bond or a “don’t mess with us” vibe, these videos grab attention instantly. But let’s be honest: professional editing takes hours.
That is where Alight Motion XML files come in. If you want to create high-quality, beat-synced Friend’s Attitude reels in just two minutes, you are in the right place. In this blog, I’ll share how to use XML presets to level up your editing game.
Why Use Alight Motion for Attitude Reels?
Alight Motion is the first professional motion graphics app for smartphones. Unlike basic editors, it gives you control over:
- Keyframe Animation: For smooth transitions.
- Color Grading (CC): To give that dark, “HDR” attitude look.
- Visual Effects: Like shake effects, glow, and glitches.
For “Friend’s Attitude” videos, the timing between the beat drop and the photo transition is everything. Using an XML file means someone else has already done the hard work of syncing the music and effects for you!
What is an Alight Motion XML File?
An XML file is essentially a “project blueprint.” It contains all the data about the layers, effects, timing, and transitions used in a project. When you import an XML file into your Alight Motion app, the entire project opens up exactly as the creator made it. You just need to replace the placeholder photos with pictures of you and your friends.
How to Import and Use the XML File (Step-by-Step)
If you are new to Alight Motion, follow these steps to get started:
Step 1: Download the XML File
First, download the Friend’s Attitude XML file from our link below. It’s a small file (usually less than 1MB).
Step 2: Import to Alight Motion
- Open your File Manager and locate the downloaded
.xmlfile. - Long-press the file and click on the Share button.
- Select Alight Motion from the list of apps.
- You will see a notification saying “Imported Project.”
Step 3: Replace Media
- Open Alight Motion and go to the Projects tab.
- Open the newly imported project.
- You will see several layers. Click on a “Group” or “Image” layer.
- Tap on Color & Fill > Select Media.
- Choose your friend’s photo from your gallery. Repeat this for all layers.
Step 4: Add Music
Sometimes XML files don’t include audio due to copyright. Simply download the trending “Attitude” audio (MP3) and add it to the project. Ensure the “beats” match the “markers” on the timeline.
Step 5: Export in 4K
Once you are happy with the preview, hit the export button. For the best quality on Instagram, export in 1080p (FHD) or 4K with a high bitrate.
Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs)
