10 Aussie Creators To Follow For Laughs, Lessons And Extremely Soothing Content
Get ready to be ~*inspired*~
Make everyday epic with the Samsung Galaxy S21 Ultra
Do you ever see grainy photos pop up in your social feed and wonder why the hell 2012 you decided to share a blurry photo of your risotto? The quality of what we all share online has progressed to the point where everyone on TikTok and Instagram looks like they’ve got some slick and expensive camera set-up.
But at the end of the day, if you want to make good content, all you need is a quality phone. Take, for example, the Samsung Galaxy S21 Ultra. It has everything budding creatives – and even just IG Story enthusiasts – need to shoot, snap and TikTok ‘til their heart’s content.
The camera has a Director’s View, which lets you shoot video with front and back cameras at the same time for a more cinematic experience, so you can capture and react at the same time.
Gone are the days of crappy phone footage – the S21 can record 4K video at 60fps or can switch to 8K to make your video even crisper*.
So, you’ve got the equipment side of things covered. Now you just need some inspiration. Here are our favourite Aussie creators who are making waves online.
Darcy Stokes
Darcy is an Aussie musician with a soothing voice whose videos are the perfect ~vibes addition~ to your feed. She shares her original music – which is great – along with funny memes and covers. Recently she covered “Good 4 U” in the style of Fleetwood Mac and we’re low-key obsessed.
Selene Cueto
When they’re done right, TikTok transitions can be mesmerising. And guys, no one is doing it like Selene. The 18-year-old’s videos are seriously astonishing, you need to watch them five times to process everything that’s going on. Everything is done on her phone, through the TikTok app, and it’s probably some of the most impressive stuff we’ve seen on social media ever. She posts tutorials as well, if you want to give it a crack.
Sha’an d’Anthes
Sha’an is an illustrator whose Instagram grid is filled with cute-as-hell drawings that’ll liven up your feed. Her YouTube channel is also a delight, with behind-the-scenes studio vlogs and a look at how her artwork is created. She even uses her Galaxy Note20 as an on-the-go sketchbook so she can create anywhere without needing to bring anything but the phone in her pocket.
