Welcome to EdTechHustle. Today I have about 10 individual photos that I want to make a video of
0:06
Now I could use a number of different programs but instead I'm going to show you the easiest
0:11
and the fastest way to create a video in just a few clicks using Canva. Let's go ahead and get
0:17
started. Okay so I am here inside Canva. What I'm going to do is select videos and I'm going to
0:26
choose a blank video. Okay from here if I wanted to I could just upload those photos and create a
0:34
video normally as I typically have in the past with Canva but instead I'm going to try this
0:40
option. You can see it over here to the left. It says generate videos instantly. All you do is
0:46
upload your content, create a short description and Canva will automatically create a video for
0:52
you with music synced. So you can see in order to do this you have you have up to 10 files that
0:58
you can select. You need to select a minimum of three files but I'm going to choose these 10
1:04
photos that I previously shared with you a second ago. Let me just go ahead and select all of them
1:11
Okay looks like I'm at 10. Okay now the next part is describe the type of video that you want. So
1:21
this is the type of video I want. I want to promote our back to school day at Gibson Elementary. So
1:27
let me go ahead and select generate. Okay so it looks like we're finished. Let's see what Canva
1:35
was able to come up with. You can see that there's slides, text. It's kind of interesting that from my
1:41
prompt Canva was able to add some text that connects to what is in the photo. So obviously this is a
1:50
picture of lockers. It was able to identify that and it says time to find our lockers. Same thing
1:56
over here. It could associate in this photo that there's maybe learning going on and it added text
2:02
that correlates with learning. So something that I think is kind of cool. You can also see right
2:08
over here three children hugging. It again was able to add text that correlated to that photo
2:13
and mentioned something about making friends. Alright you can see a little about how this looks
2:18
Let's go ahead and push play. This kind of gives you an idea of what the videos are like. You can
2:30
see there's a transition. There's a little bit of motion in each photo and of course they added text
2:35
on each individual slide. Now of course if there's something that I don't like about this video which
2:42
was automatically generated, it's going to be really easy to change. So let's go ahead and
2:47
take move that out of the way. Let me go ahead and take this text. Let's say I don't like this
2:51
bright blue. I want a color that's a little bit more darker, maybe easier on the eyes. You can
2:58
very easily change any of the colors on here. Fonts. I could get rid of this emoji if I wanted
3:04
to. I could add more things on the slide. I can even get rid of this photo if I really wanted to
3:08
Same thing goes for the music. Okay let's say I don't really like this music. No problem. It's
3:16
very easy to change this in Canva. We'll start by just deleting this track and then let's see. I'm
3:24
just gonna go over here to where it says audio. Let me preview one like this. If this is something
3:32
that sounds good, let me go ahead and just drag that down. I'll pause that. I'm just gonna add
3:42
this right over here. And right now we've got a brand new soundtrack to our video
3:51
So not bad. So again this is kind of like a first draft. It's not necessarily a finished video. It
3:57
can be. But chances are it's not going to be 100% perfect. But hopefully it's close enough to save
4:04
you a little bit of time. Think of this as maybe like a rough draft for a really quick project
4:09
I'm hoping that using this brand new feature in Canva will save you a little bit of time
4:15
And of course once it's finished you can easily select share, go to download, and then download
4:22
this video in an NMP4 format where you can upload it to a site like YouTube or anywhere else. So
4:29
hope you found this video to be helpful. If you like this kind of content you may want to consider
