professor of management, a certified content strategist, and a seasoned cope traitor. I've been training people in digital content
writing, marketing, graphic designing,
especially related to V. In this class, I'll be teaching you how you can use the power of Kanva to create stunning animated logos by applying principles of
kinetic typography. I shall be starting
with introduction to typography and its types, followed by four principles of typography with a special
emphasis on kinetic typography. Then I will be
moving to animated typographic logos in Canva. I'll teach you how you can use custom animations
in logo making. Then, I shall be sharing
with you how you can leverage the
power of templates in Canva to create very
interesting custom animations. In the *** end of this course, I shall be sharing with
you a pro technique to identify your font and
its family details. In the penultimate video, I'll be discussing with
you how you can add music or audio to your
typographic logos. Finally, I will be
concluding with an interesting project
video that will test the skills that you
have acquired in this class. There is plenty to
learn in this class. Looking forward to
you in this class.
2. Introduction to Typography and Its Types: Welcome to learners. Welcome to this video on introduction
to typography. Typography is a
very vast subject, but for the purpose
of this course, I shall be restricting
myself to typography and its basic principles which
are relevant to the canva. There are certain
things that needs to be understood in order to take
maximum out of this course. Let me define typography first. Typography is a term used for style or appearance of text. It is also known as the art
of working with the text. All these fonts available in Canva are preset
typographic fonts. They have created it for
the ease of the users so that users can easily
inculcate them in their text. For instance, if I
click over here, this particular font
will be shown over here. I can resize it,
change its color, I can add some animation to it, like this or this, or like this. I can also add some effects
to the typographic text here. Maybe I can hollow or
add a glitch effect, or I can make it neon. I could also add outline. I can also use this lift
effect or splice effect. Or if I don't want any of them, I can go back to the nun, which is the default effect. Now you understand what is typography and there are plenty of options available in Canva to use typographic elements. Now let me classify typography into two important segments. One is your static typography, like this baked fresh text or typography
written over here is a example of static typography where you have used
a certain font in certain color combination, in certain style. That's it. You can download it
as a PNG file or as a JPG file and it's image file that can be
used wherever you want. However, the more relevant for this course is another aspect of typography that is typographic animation
or kinetic typography. What exactly is
kinetic typography? Let me show you. Suppose I run
the Play Animation button. Here you can see this typography text itself is an example of
kinetic typography. You can notice it
is in the format of video file and it is coming as a moving
sequence of characters. When I'll download it, it will be downloaded as a Mp four file or a
video format file, not as a static image. This course is precisely
about kinetic typography, especially used in context
of animated logos. You can create very
impressive logo video files using Canva and plenty
of features it offers. I shall be talking more
about different fonts and associated topics
during the course of this class at
appropriate moments. I think for introduction
purpose now you are aware what exactly is typography and what are its
two basic types, that is static and
kinetic typography. With this, I
conclude this video. In the next video,
I shall be talking about four essential
principles of typography which
will be relevant for both static and kinetic
typography Stat for that. See you in the next video.
3. 4 Principles of Typography: Welcome, welcome
to this new video. In this video, I
shall be talking about four basic
principles of typography. What are the four
principles of typography? Let me illustrate for
you first hierarchy, Leading, tracking, and
kerning. What are they? Let me discuss one by one, starting with the
hierarchy first, it is used to guide
readers eyes and give different levels of emphasis
to sections of text. One can mention the most
important sections at the top and make them stand
out using boulder letters, different different styles,
or different colors, or all of them together. Talking about
leading, leading is simply the space
between the lines. You can see there
is a space between these four pointers here, Hierarchy, leading,
tracking, and Urn. The adjustment of
this spacing is done through the process known
as leading in Canva. There is a very easy
way to do this. Simply select the
text elements you want to adjust and go
to spacing option. Here there is option of letter spacing as well as line spacing. We are referring to leading, which is line spacing. You can see I can
adjust it from here. The gap between the
lines is increasing. It can also be
decreased from here. Now, where this feature
comes as useful feature, it is when you use
a certain fonts which are too crammed in
their design, in their style, that they need more
spacing between the line to make the text
more readable and legible. As well as elegant line spacing is basically known as leading. This is an important principle of typography that you
must keep in mind. Next is tracking. Tracking
is complementary to leading. Tracking is nothing
but your letter spacing or character spacing. In Canva, we call
it letter spacing. If I adjust it from here, I can increase or decrease the gap
between the characters. Again, the purpose is
to make your content, to make your text more legible, more beautiful, and
more easy on the eyes. These two important
principles are important elements
of typography. That is, leading and tracking
can be easily taken care of in Canva by using the
feature called spacing. Now that hierarchy leading
and tracking is done, fourth on the list is kerning. What exactly is kerning? Is very closely
related to tracking, but it talks about
distortions in spacing. There are certain
forms where there is a spacing between
different characters, which looks very
awkward on zooming out. You don't want to
be in a position where you create a document, and once a text is zoomed out, it appears unprofessional
and unattractive. This imperfect gap
between the characors is also referred as bad ing. If you encounter a font
which has bad curing, then you should certainly try
and change that font else, it may not give you
the desired results. Be wary of bad fonts. You need to be very cautious that space between
the characters, like for instance, in
this particular font, it has got very good n means
the gap between E and E, N, N and N, G are all the same. It doesn't look awkward
if I zoom it out. Even then it doesn't di, this is what I mean by urn. So you should be very careful
in choosing your fonts, that your fonts must
not have bad cunning. These are the four
principles of typography. I hope you understood them
and they will come in very handy once you start working
with kinetic typography. In the next video, I
shall be talking about typographic logo
animation in Canva, or creation of kinetic
typography using Canva specially for the purpose
of creating dynamic logos. Thank you for watching
this, keep learning. Keep watching. See you
in the next video.
4. Animated Typographic Logos in Canva: Welcome learners. Welcome
to this new video. In this video, we
shall be talking about how we can
use the power of Canva to create
kinetic typography for creating animated logos. Va supports a variety of
graphics and animations, and kinetic typography, or kinetic logos or animated
logos are just one of them. As you can see, Canva has got
a lot of inbuilt animations for typographic elements that can be used for creating
animated logos. We'll be exploring
them one by one, what are they and how you
can leverage the power of this inbuilt animations to create stunning kinetic
logos in Canva. Let me create an
hypothetical logo for a company called Kinetic Yoga. Suppose this is the name of
our company and we need to create an animated
logo for this company. What we'll be
doing, I've written Kinetic Yoga here using
simple text elements. What I can do with this, I
will simply select the effects first to give it some
unique look and feel. I may say outline, or this looks fine. I can even try other
elements here, but this splice looks fine. Let me just increase the
size of it a little bit. This looks fine. Let me just
place it in the center. This text, I can adjust its spacing because your
logo should be compact. Let me reduce the
space a little bit. Remember the basic
typographic principles that I discussed with you
in the previous video? Let me just reduce the
spacing here between the letters. This looks fine. Now what I can do here, I can simply click on
this Animate button. It will take me to
this animation shelf on Canva from where I can
pick my desired animation. Notice there are two kinds
of animations available. Here is page level animations and another is text animations. When I click the page animation, whatever will be there
on the page will be animated as such. Suppose I had two logos just to showcase the page
animation effect here. Now since I've duplicated
kinetic yoga here, let me click animation again. And I'll click the
page animation here. Now whatever
animation I'll apply, it will be simultaneously
applied to the whole page. That is both the kinetic
yoga elements out there. You can see from here, any
of the animation that I choose will be applied
to both the lines here. That is the benefit of
page level animation, but usually you don't
have multiple lines. Text level animation
is sufficient for you in case you have
more than two elements. Page level animations can
be quite handy in Canva. Let me delete this. We
don't need this one. Now, with this, what I can do, maybe I could have
some image here. This is a short listed image of this hypothetical
company, Kinetic Yoga. Suppose the image I'm having, this is the text I'm
having in my logo. Let me just group them together so that I can
resize them easily. Now, this already
looks very good, but it's a static logo. What we want, we
want animated logo. That is a logo in
the video format. What we can do with this,
I will select this group together and I will
go to the tab here. Now, this whole group will be animated because
all the elements have been grouped together. Let me go there and
suppose I use this again. Now notice earlier there were page animation
and text animations. Now what has happened here? The text animation tab has been replaced by photo
animation automatically. Since I have added a
photo to my logo shelf, If I want to animate a photo
only I can select this, else I can go with the
page animation that will affect both text as well
as photo on the page. Suppose I want to select
this one or this one. I can pick any one of them. There are plenty of
animations available. I may choose any one of them. Although these combinations are quite powerful and
quite elegant, but I'm not limited by them. I can always customize them
by these options given below. Suppose I want to address
the speed of the animation. I can do it from here. I can
make it slower or faster, as the case may be.
It is up to me. I can also choose whether I
want to animate at both ends. That is, at the beginning
as well as at the end, or only at the time of
entering or on exit. There are quite a lot
of variations here. There's even a variation of
direction here I can change, this is a default direction,
upward direction. In this particular animation, I can make it downwards by
opting for this arrow here. I can further apply these options here which
are little advanced. But again they give me
ability to play with different movements Is my text as well as photo
elements in my logo. This excrete one are quite nice here as you can see from here. This looks great, isn't it? Again, I can assess
the movement of the execrete animations as well, using these arrow keys to
add more variation to it. They have given you the option of adding these motion effects. You can have this
rotation effect. See how awesome it
looks, isn't it? You can also have
flicker effect, pulse effect, or wiggle effect. Amazing, isn't it? This is how you can create these animated logos using Canva very easily
just pick the text, pick the relevant image. If you want them, simply add your desired effect or
your font is good enough, you need not to
add even effects. Also, simply apply any of
the inbuilt animations. Here you can try
both page level as well as photo animation level
or text level animations. And whichever
serves your purpose best, you can go for it. There is plenty of
variations and you can further customize
them by their direction, their speed, and other filters that they have given
you over here. This is how easy it is to create stunning animated
logos in Canva. Using inbuilt animation options, you can create any kind of logo. Although there are
plenty of options out there in Canva for
creating animated logos. But still, if you want to create your own version of animation,
there is a way out there. In the next video, I will be discussing with
you how you can create custom animations in
Canva relatively easily. When you compare it with other complex graphic
designing softwares, you can come up with
something of your own, something very
unique that may be required for your
business purpose. Thank you for watching this, Keep learning, keep watching. See you in the next video.
5. Using Custom Animations in Logo Making: Welcome learners. Welcome
to this new video. In this video, I shall be discussing with you
how you can use custom animation
feature of Canva to create stunning kinetic logos. Let's see how we
can go about it. In the last video,
I've discussed with you how these
animations work, both at the element level as
well as at the page level. Now I will be introducing you to another impressive feature of animations in Canva that
is custom animation. Let's see how we can do it. If I select any element, if I select multiple elements, or a page as a whole, then there is an option of
animation pan here. We're familiar with
this pan by now, but there is one more option to create an animation
at the top of it. This is a custom animation
feature of Canva. It's a very powerful feature. It gives you ability to
create your own version of animations as per your
requirements and creativity. Let's see how it works out. Suppose I select
this single element here and I click this, Create an animation tab. It gives me an option to
design my own animation path. I can move this text as per my own desires and creativity, place it wherever I want, and this path will be
traced as an animated path. You can see this is how
this animated path works. Now this was just to
tell you about this, take note here,
since I had chosen a custom animation path
in the animation tab, it is written custom here. If I don't like this, I
can certainly change it. Suppose I want to
delete the path. I can simply do it from here. The element for which
the animation path has to be deleted
must be selected. I've selected kinetic yoga here. And I'll delete this
path in one go. All the path has been
restored to the default. That is, there is
no animation here. As you can see, it
is written animate. Now instead of custom, that means there is
no animation at play. Here Again, I can apply the same thing to the
multiple elements. Let me show you
very quickly here. I'll select both elements here
and click Animate option. And then I'll go to
the Create animation. From here, I'll select a path
for all elements together. Now see this, let
me play it for you. See this, how it works? This was just to showcase functionality of this
custom animation path. Now question is how to use it more effectively to
create professional, great, yet unique
custom animations. We'll talk about
it in this video. Now, I've selected this
kinetic yoga here. I don't want to move it randomly because it will not
look professional. What I'll do, I'll apply
another feature here. Let me now just go
through the steps here so I can hold
a shift key on my keyboard and then move this. It will move in
the straight line. If I move it gently
in either direction, suppose I'm moving
it northwards, then you can see it's
a straight line. I'm bringing it back to the original position slowly
and leaving it there. Now, see how this
animation works. This is much better than
the random movement. Fine, again, I'm
deleting this path. Another important feature
of custom animation. As with other animations
that we have seen so far, we can use it in conjunction with the
motion effects here. Let me show you
how we can do it. Suppose I select this
photograph here, and I'll go to Animate button, and there are motion
effects over here. Fine, what I'll do, I will apply one of
the motion effect. I can apply multiple
motion effects. See I've selected
rotate flicker pearls. I can even add wiggle to this
and just see how it works. Multiple motion
effects are at play. But again, it is
overdoing things. It is not advisable
what I'll do, I'll choose one motion effect here and remove all
other motion effects. Let me wiggle. I'm also removing rotate effect. You have to remove each
effect one by one. I'll either keep
pulse or flicker. Suppose I have
decided on flicker. With flicker, it
will do like this, or I can keep pulse
and remove flicker. Now it will appear like this. This looks better. Let me
keep this pulse effect. Now go to Animate option. Click on the Create
an Animation, custom animation and
press Shift key. Now I'll move this kinetic
yoga a little bit upwards. I'm clicking done here and see how it comes
out ever so gently, this kinetic yoga text
will move a little bit upwards and at the same time this image will
pulsate together. Both these effects will give me a professional
looking animation. Let me show you how it works. Let me just improve this
kinetic yoga animation. I'll bring it back to the
original position as well so that it comes out
to its native place. Let me click the
custom animation here. I will delete the path. And now I'll press the shift key again and move it
slightly upwards. And bring it down in the straight line while
keeping the shift key pressed. Now see this is how it comes. Now let me just enhance the
speed of this animation. I can control the speed of custom animations as I can do
with the other animations. I'll enhance the speed of it because it is a
little bit jerky. And it will be because it is not easy to move element
in a straight line, even with the shift
key direction will be controlled
by the shift key, but pace will certainly
be not consistent. To do that, I can either
try smooth or steady. I think study works best. I'll go for the study option, and I'm clicking done here. Just plate. Let's see
how it works now. Much better. Now, kinetic yoga has moved upwards in
a smoother fashion, at a faster pace. And come down to its
native position, more or less to its
native position with little practice
certainly improve it. But point is to give
you an idea how custom animations work
and how you can create your own unique kind of animations with your
logos where you can animate images and
text segments separately. And certainly as a whole too. This was it in this video
where I explained to you the custom animation
feature of Canva, with which you can create
stunning animated logos with poor text and
visual elements. In the next video,
I shall be doing the same process using some of the established
logo templates. Because when you
create your own logos, sometimes dimensions
can be an issue. When you use a template
for logo making, then dimensions are much more
aligned and you can pick any template as per your requirement that suits
your business objectives. I'll be showing you the
process using a template in the next video and
how we can play with this custom animation feature
with logo templates and create amazing kinetic
logos in Canva. Thank you for
watching this video. Stay tuned for the next video.
6. Applying Custom Animations to Templates: Welcome learners. Welcome
to this new video. In this video, I shall be
discussing with you how you can modify logo templates with
custom animations in Canva. Let me search animated
logo template here. I've written animated
logo here and I'll be clicking over here.
See what it shows me. These are the templates
that is showing me. I can pick any one of them. For this video, I'll
be moving away from my kinetic yoga theme and I'll be taking this
another theme, donut template, which is
a prebuilt animated logo. What I'll be doing it, I'll be optimizing it to my
own requirements. As for my own creativity, let me just click here and this template is loaded and
I'll be customizing it. Let me first show you
how this animation, which is default animation
here, how it works. If you analyze it, there are multiple inbuilt
animations at play here. If I select this
particular element, you can see it has a
baseline animation. This D has burst animation. The nuts also have
burst animation. This Boreslin has no animation. We'll be optimizing it. We'll be altering it. Asperaur thought process
and Asperurw creativity. Let's see how we
can go about it. What I'll be doing first, I'll be selecting all of them and removing
existing animations. I'll click here and there is
option of clear animation. Once I'll click it,
all the animations in this particular
template will be gone. Let me just play it
and to show you, it doesn't have any
animation at this moment. You can notice there is
no animation at all. This can be confirmed from
this animate button because animate button only appears
whence there is no animation. Usually it is named
by that animation be baseline custom
rise or any other, for that matter, what
we'll be doing now, I'll be first playing with this O which is in the
shape of donut here. And see how I can modify it. I'll be using this
rotate as well as pulse motion effect here
for this particular element, that is O in the
shape of doughnut. Now I'll first change this text to suppose my brand
name is Donut Cafe. I'll change this
porcell to Cafe. I can alter the fonts
if I don't like it. Suppose I opt for this,
this looks better. Maybe I'll change
the color and make it lighter. This looks nice. Now I'll use one very
interesting feature in Canva that is
guides and rulers. That will help me
understand where my elements are and
where I can place them post animation so that there is no unwanted distortion
in the final product. Let me show you how
we can go about it. Click the File option, Go to Settings, Show
Rulers and Guides. Once I've clicked
rulers and guides, it gives me ability to pinpoint the locations
wherever I want them. That once I change the elements, I know their original position. What I'll do from
here, I'll drag it one horizontal line here. I'll drag another to mark my cafe's original position.
Draw one more line. Donuts here to the top of the because is the tallest
of the elements here. My donut and cafe are bound
by this horizontal guides. Now let me add some
vertical lines as well to mark this D. Okay, now I know where my
original text elements are. I want them to be at the same position at the
end of the animation, whichever animation
I create for them. Next what I'll do, I'll place this cafe at the
center of the screen. It is already at the center. I'll put it in the middle. How I can go about it,
simply select this. Go to the position and it is, it is already in the
center of the page. Center is from left to right, and middle is from
top to bottom. I want it at both at the
center as well as middle. I'll click here.
Now, this cafe is at the center as well as middle. Now, in case if
you're not familiar with all these editing
features in Canva, you can check out my
course on this platform about editing features
and Canva hacks which explains all the
editing features with ease and great examples for the
convenience of learners. Go and check that course in case you are new to the Canva. If you're not new
to this even then this course that talks
about editing hacks will certainly add value to your knowledge base and
you'll become better with Canva bar checking guys coming back to this
particular project in hand. What I'll do now, I'll
add one rectangle here. I'll click on the screen and press R and extend
this rectangle to cover the dimensions of
my logo completely fine. I'll change the color
of this rectangle to the base color of this template
so that it is invisible. I'll put it behind again.
I'll use the position. Go to Layers and
put it behind Cafe, that my cafe is visible, rest of the elements
are not visible. Now what I'll do, I'll select this cafe and
go to the Animate option. See, it is not animated as yet. That's why animate is
written over here. I'll click here. Now I'll pick Create an animation
that is a custom animation. Er, and press the shift key. Remember this from
the previous video. I'll press the shift
key so that it goes down in the straight line. What I'll do here, I'll select this cafe and go
to this Animate option. Select the Create an Animation. And press the shift key here. And drag it slowly to its original position
in the straight line. Just worry not about
the pace of it. It can always be adjusted using smooth and
steady function. Again, I'll go for the steady
one and see how beautiful it comes down to its
original position from the center of the screen. Now what I'll do, I will select this box here, the rectangle which I
imposed over this logo. And click the
animate option here. Again, press the Shift
key and drag it upwards. And leave it here so that
my doughnut is revealed. What I'll do, I'll just
increase the pace of this movement of
this rectangle so that it moves a little faster. Let me see if it is
doing fine here. Okay, I need to change the pace of this cafe
as well, I believe. Let me just make it
a little faster as well and see how it works now. A little more faster. I'll
play again. It is better. You need to try
multiple times to adjust the pace of
different animations. Particularly if those animations are in different
direction or are of different kind so that they
work best in sync in tandem. They do not outplay or
outpace each other. You need to synchronize them and try different pace settings for different elements
till you come up with a one that appeals
to your senses. I think this one is fine here. Okay, now what else I can do? Maybe I can go to this position and do
something with the nuts. Let me animate these nuts here. Let me add bust,
or maybe bounce. Bust looks nicer, but again, I will adjust the
intensity or pace of it. Let me just reduce
it a little bit and see to make it more spicy, let me select all elements
here and go to effects. And I will add glitch effect
here and see how it works. Now you need to try
with different options. You can use some
of the animations, some of your custom animations. In conjunction, you can create
a unique animated logo, which is a beautiful video file that goes well with
your brand messaging and serves your purpose. Don't worry about the
guides and rulers. They won't be shown in
the final animations. Just download the file as a MP file share option.
Just click here. Go to download. By default is MP four because
it's a video file. If it is a pro version, you have ability to enhance its quality and size from the
original 500, 500 pixels. I can make it maybe
960 by 960 pixels. Download it and your file
will be downloaded to your system from where you
can use it anywhere you want. This was it in
this video by now. I hope you're familiar with kinetic animations and how
you can use custom as well as inbuilt kinetic
animations in Canva to create stunning logo
for your businesses. In the next video, I'll be discussing with
you techniques to find your desired font
for your logo animation. Stay tuned for that
interesting video coming up next. See you
in the next video.
7. A Pro Technique to Identify Font Details: Welcome, welcome
to this new video. So far you have learned how you can use kinetic typography, or typographic text animations, to create stunning video logos. And I'm sure you have
enjoyed this course and acquired some useful skills. If that is the case, consider
reviewing this course. Because your positive feedback, your positive review
can help me reach more students who might be in the need of similar content. Coming to the topic
of this video, there will be occasions
where you see a font somewhere on the web or
otherwise and you just adore it. You want to use that font in your typographic animations
or in your work on Canva. You're faced with a dilemma. You don't know the
name of the font, you don't know the
family of the font. You don't know whether
that font is paid or free, or if it is available
in Canva or not. To solve this dilemma, I'm going to share a
very exciting tool with you in this video. The tool is named as font. It's an extension
which is available for both Chrome as well
as Microsoft Edge, or for that matter, all
other popular browsers. Let me just show you how you
can use that extension and easily figure out whichever font you want to use in
your animations. What you need to
do, simply write font extension for your browser. In the address bar
of your browser. Click the appropriate option, usually it comes on the top. Simply add the extension I've already added
in my browser. So it is showing
me remove option. Otherwise it would have
been written get there. Simply click the Get button
and that extension will be downloaded and uploaded
to your address bar. As it is the case here, This is the icon
for font extension. As you can see, once
I hover over it, it shows what font. Now what you need to do. Go to any website. Suppose I'm taking you to this website and click
over this extension. It is clearly mentioned what font has access
to this site. What you need to do, you
simply need to hover your cursor to any text
element on your page. It will show you the
name of the font here. If I click here, it can show me the details about
the font and its family. Also, this font is
called a Roboto slab. Sensif style is normal
and weight is 400. All this information
is available. Even the color and size of the font is also
mentioned over here. You can find out any
font using this tool. Let me try another example. Here I have opened
this Amazon site. Yes, it has access to
this site as well. Let me click it and see it is Amazon amber font used here. You can see it is mentioned. Now I'll click it further
to know the details. Again, the weight is
400, style is normal, size is 14 pixels, linite is 20 px, and color is also
mentioned over here. Now, once you know the name of the font, what do
you need to do? Simply go, Suppose I want to use this Amazon Amber in my Canva. What I'll do, I'll go to Google, simply search Amazon Amber Font. There are enough number of sites available like coupon fonts or CDN fonts that will provide you a range
of fonts for free. And there are also paid fonts
available in the market. If it is available for free, you can download it and
simply upload it in your Canva to use it in your animation
projects or otherwise. This is how easy
and simple it is, I'm sure from now onwards, if you like a font,
you need not to worry about whichever
font it is. Simply use this tool and figure out the name and dimensions
of the font used. And try to download and upload it in your Canva for
your future project. This was it in this video. In the next video, I
shall be sharing with you one pro technique
to add music to your kinetic typography
projects so that your video logos can also
have music elements. Keep learning, keep watching. See you in the next video.
8. Adding Audio to Typographic Logos: Welcome learners. Welcome
to this new video. So far in this course, we have learned how we can create stunning animated logos, both using templates as
well as from scratch. Canva is a great tool to create
kinetic logos either way. Now, since we're talking
about animated logos, we are essentially talking
about video files. When there is video file, there should be an option to
add audio or music to it. It can make your
kinetic logo more appealing and much
more effective. Let's see how we
can go about it. For the sake of
example, I'll be again, going back to my
Kinetic yoka template. This is the same Kinetic
Yoga animated logo that I created for the
sake of this class. Let me just play
it without music, just to give you a
reference point. As you can see, it has got no music or audio
in the background. Now, before adding any
relevant music to it, I would like to increase
its length a little bit because five second is too
small for an musical logo. Let me announce it a little bit. I'm making it say
10.5 or 13.5 Fine. We can always readjust according to the
track that we choose. Let me find a relevant
audio file for it. I'll go for meditation
Music Here, let me see how it works. Let me see if something
else works better. I'm deleting this one from here. Let me plate this immediately looks better
than the previous one. I'll go for this one. Let me close this and make one
more adjustment here. There is an option
called as Beat sync. When it comes to adding
audio videos in Canva, I'll just use this option and
see what it will do for me. Toggling this button on that, we'll adjust the musical beats according to the movement
in the animation. Let me see if it
sounds better now. Yes, it does clearly beat sync, made it sound and
look much better. Now what I'll do,
I'll simply go to the Shear button and click
the download option. By default there is
mp for selection. I'll keep that as it is and
download it in my system. Once it is downloaded
in my system, I can upload it anywhere
I want and use it as my musical logo for
Kinetic Yoga brand. This was it in this video. I hope you enjoyed this feature. I'm sure now you
will feel much more confident in using Canva to create your animated logos or kinetic typography
in general. Thank you for
watching this video. In the next video, I'll
be discussing with you a very interesting
project for this course, where you'll be
required to create a basic animated logo using
a template of your choice. Thank you for watching this one. See you in the next video.
9. Class Project Video: Welcome learners to the
project video of this course. You're required to create
a kinetic logo using one of the kinetic logo
template available in Canva. What you need to do, simply
go to the search bar of Canva and type Kinetic
logo templates. There are tons of logo templates available which are
kinetic in nature. You can choose any
one of your choice. What I would suggest is choose
a minimalistic one so that you have a compact yet
impactful kinetic logo. You may suppose this one, I've selected this
as an example what you're expected to do,
change the text of it. By selecting the elements as I've taught you
in this class. Maybe add a relevant image or you can choose the same image with different colors and hues. It's up to your creativity
and requirements. You may opt to create a logo for your real business or some
hypothetical business. You have full freedom, Explore
all the animate options, use custom animations, or you
can use inbuilt animations. The point is to create an effective kinetic logo that will test your skills
that you've acquired. In this class, I
shall be valuating each submitted project and
give you my feedback on it. Looking forward to
your submissions. And finally, I would like
to thank you for choosing this class to learn kinetic
logo animations in Canva, all the best for your projects, and stunning kinetic logos that you'll be making
