Hello, I can't think of a very easy way of converting a IG carousel post into a story automatically but I'd resize each post by just clicking the "Resize" function at top left,  and then selecting "Instagram story" option, then clicking "duplicate and resize" and selecting an option and adjusting if necessary. Then downloading each story sized image and creating a video in Express. 

 

To create a video with your story images, you can open the first story that you resized, and clicking the "Animation" at top left (third option from the left as I see it) you can select "Glide" option and then add your other story images. Then all you need to do is clicking the "Download" button at top right, to be able to download the animation as mp4. It's gonna be a shameless plug but if you're a total beginner in animating via Express, you can check my beginner friendly animation tutorial 🙂 https://youtu.be/DlpARJp-zPA?si=ZU7B0XKvdY4rW9QT And I'm sure if there's an easier way, some other expert will update us. Happy designing!

Thanks AkinGn. So I resized and turned each post into an animation.
But when I upload, I get one video per post. Whereas I want a single video containing all the animated pages.

Oh you must have skipped the steps I mentioned "...Then downloading each story sized image and creating a video in Express. " then: "....you can select "Glide" option and then add your other story images." You need to first download each story image, and then add them as additional images to the first glide animation 😉 Hope this helps, let me know if you encounter any other problems, I'd like to help as much as I can, happy designing!
