Can any user create filters on Instagram?

The creator of the Sasha Dog filter, Antonio Ruggiero, is a regular Instagram user. Since August 2019, the social network has allowed anyone to create and share similar effects that can be accessed by everyone.

To do this, you need to download the Spark AR Studio program, created by Facebook and available for Mac OS and Windows. It is through it that it is possible to create the augmented reality filters. Among the effects are those of face distortion, simulation of particles and lights, masks, among others.

However, before you see your creations being used by third parties, you need to go through an approval process. For that, it is necessary to submit it to the Spark AR Hub website.

You must have an account and choose whether to share it on Instagram or Facebook. During this process, the filter will be available for 1 hour on the desired platform to perform the necessary tests and adjustments before completing the shipment.

After you submit, you must wait for the Facebook / Instagram team to approve the submitted content. The period for receiving a response can vary from one business day to one week.
