Transcripts

1. Introduction: Hello, and welcome to the course of Kanva Magic Studio with Artificial Intelligence or AI. Yes, you hear that right. We are going to use AA with Kanva To introduce myself, I'm Manten Patel, a graphic designer or graphic expert, and I've been dealing with Kanva from more than four to five years. And tet me when I say this, I know a lot about Kanva than most people in the world. So you are in the good hands. In this course, I want to equip you with the knowledge and the tools needed to empower or supercharge your creative process with AI and Kanva. I will introduce you to one of the Kanvas most intensive collection, which is known as Canva Magic Studio, and how you can empower or leverage that to your specific advantages. This course is typically applicable to all of the graphic designer friends out there and who wants to know more about Kana Magic Studio. All right, I'm pretty excited for this journey. I will see you in the first lesson. 2. Text to Image: Bringing Your Ideas to Life with Canva: Welcome to this lesson, Let us explore Magic Media, which is another AA va component, and let us learn what it can do for you and for your creative assets. In this lesson, we are going to use the text to image functionality to transform text based ideas into images. To start this process, you will need to go to click on Apps and then click on Magic Media. This will open up an extra menu, allowing you to create images and videos from text prompts. First, you start with a text description. For example, describe what kind of image you want and describe what you want to see. Perhaps a futuristic car or bike with the ability to fly. Next, pick the style that suits you. There are plenties of styles that Kenwa offers like photography, digital, and finite. You will even see little preview images to get an idea of the potential final look. I will go for three D model. Then you have to decide on the expect ratio. It can be square, landscape or portrait. Let us go with landscape. Lastly, the final step is to click on the generate image. After clicking on that generate image button, it will take some time to generate image for you. This usually takes a bit of time to render, but once done, you will see several cool interpretations. Also, you can always add to the prompt or modify or even regenerate the images to get a new set of options. I highly encourage you to experiment with your own prompts. All right? To make your learning experience more impactful and significant. Navigate to the exercise file provided in the resource section of this course. C click on the link in the PDF, you will be redirected to a CVA template, which you can replicate or duplicate inside your own Canva account. As you browse through this PF, you will notice that we have all of the assets and components for each lesson, and it will be inside this PF. Let us get our hands with this first exercise. You are watching these lectures, I urge you to open that exercise file and do all of this along with me. It will be more fun and you will be able to grass more knowledge about Kana Magic Studio. All right, I will see you in the next one. 3. Text to Video: Transforming Text into Stunning Videos: We tried creating images from texts in the last lecture. But what about generating videos? Well, in this lecture, we are going to generate stunning videos from simple text prompt in just a few minutes. Let's go back to our Canvas screen. Unlike the image magic media interface, the video one is much simpler. All you need to do is write a prompt with a video you want to see. For instance, let us use a longer description, and it will create something uniquely. You can type a beautiful spring rose in a garden in a style of professional cinematographic and in natural light. Once you are all ready, all you have to do is click on that generate video button. It may take one or two minute to fully render the video. So wait for that. One thing to keep in mind with videos is that you only get one option, not several options to choose from like we have in our image. And there you have it. Your video is ready. Now, remember, this isn't stock footage, which is sourced from Kanvas Media's library. It is generated by an AI algorithm based on your prompt. And every time you run with the same prompt with the exact wording, you will get different results and different videos. You can play the video and see that it's just a few seconds long. It's look like an actual scene from the movie. Incredible realistic. It's almost as if it was shot by a professional camera. However, it is also worth mentioning that, like most AI tools out there, the video option in Canvas Media magic is also experimental, and not all the scenes will look realistic, especially the ones that involves dynamic elements such as human or animals. 4. Mastering Photo Edits with AI Magic: You can easily remove distractions and add new elements into your photo in just matter of few clicks. We will look at how to transform entire images and selected areas with the power of a text prompt. Let's start with our first example. Navigate to the dit photo, then select magic it. Here, you can adjust the brush size to select the area you wish to modify. In our case, we will focus on the tie. Remember, the more precise you're highlighting, the better the final result. After outlighting the desired area, now comes the most interesting part, describing the changes you want in few words like a tie should be in red color with small squares. Then he generate and wait for the magic of Kana A. There will be four options to choose from. Select the one that you like with your vision and finalize it by clicking Dn. Next, we have a feature of clicking the object rather than outlining anything. Let us go to our second example. Here you can see, we have a bunch of objects. Click on Edit image, then go to Magic dit. Then click on this second option. As you can see, it will highlight all of the objects in that image. Let's say you want to change the color of your chair or even want to change the whole plant, you can do it. Simply describe whatever you want to add or change. Even you can leverage the power of this inspired M button. All right, feel free to play around with this feature. As you can see, this feature has immense possibility and immense power to transform your creative assets. So curate your proms. All right, I'll see you in the next one. 5. Effortless Image Editing and Text Extraction with Canva AI: Separating the subject from your photo and from its background, for easy repositioning it, and editing is a very complex task, but not for Canvas AI capabilities. We are going to go over how to extract either assets or texts from images with magic grab and grab texts. Let's start by clicking on this first image and navigating to our familiar edit photo menu. Once they activate magic crap. What happen next is incredible. Canvas AI will automatically identify the most prominent subject in your photo. Then it seamlessly separates it from the backdrop, layering it against a regenerated backdrop that matches the original scene. This allows from incredible versatility. You can move this image to a completely different image and create new variations in your design. Now, let us shift our focus to grape tax. Select the next image. Again, click on it photo, and then choose grape tax, and then click on grape tax. In a similar fashion to our previous example, the KvA AI will automatically extract any visible text from the image and separate it into a new object. The font style, including its coloring end style, is selected from Kanvas font library. You can experiment with these features to see how different funds are extracted and how the background is intelligently filled by Canvas generative AI capabilities. 6. Reimagine with Magic Expand: I'm sure that you have been into a situation where your photo is perfect and beautiful. But you wish you can capture a little bit more outside your borders. Well, Kanvas magic Studio has another trick up its sleeves that can help you with that. In this lesson, you are going to learn how to re imagine images with the innovative magic expand feature. The magic expand feature isn't just for filling gaps as it expand parts of your images that aren't present, blending your original visuals with an AI generated interpretation. Now, let us sp dive into an example so that you will understand it much better. Imagine you have a photo of photer, being poured into a glass, but the background feels restricted to you, or you want the image to fit in specific format. All right, select your image and open the added photo menu. Choose magic expand. Will see options like free form where you will direct the AI to expand a specific area. There is also a whole page for a full background modification and square format for a one to one ratio, which is perfect and ideal from social media post. Well, in this scenario, we will go with the whole background or whole page and then click on the magic pile. Then the AA will generate four unique options. If you don't like these options and they don't meet your needs, you can click regenerate and it will generate new results, which will allow you to explore additional AA power variations. Magic pan is also perfect for creating continuity in landscapes or backgrounds. Consider another scenario. A landscape photo while the sky occupies a small part of the frame. By using magic pan, you can extend just the sky portion of the picture by picking the free form option. And there you have it. By understanding where Magie Expand Excels and experimenting with a bunch of new images, you will open or unlock a new label of creativity in your designs. All right, I will see you in the next lecture. 7. MagicMorph 101: Transforming ordinary texts, element, or shape into unique piece of art is at the core of magic Morph. In this lesson, we will go over how to use magic Morph feature to enhance the elements of your design. To kick things off scroll to the app section and search for magic Morph. Then select the magic Morph option. Once you are in the magic Morph, you can either select an existing element from your design or even insert a simple one to experiment with this feature. You may choose between text, a simple graphic or a shape. In our case, we will be going to choose an element from the previously provided exercise file. Next, you will be prompted to define the transformation you desire for your selected element. The more detail you can provide like an object, color, pattern, or surroundings, the better. Also to ensure the optimal whistles, your descriptions must be instructive and more detail. For instance, our description will be fill it with clusters of flowers with a detailed leafy background. This will provide the air with enough information on how to approach the morph. The last step is to hit the magic morph button, which will transfer your existing or your current element into something quite unique piece of work. This feature of magic Murph work best with heavier shape and text, and it's quite useful from transforming or converting your simple and ordinary text elements into a modern look and unique piece of work. All right, I'll see you in the next lecture. 8. Canva's Magic Animate: Now it's time to turn your static presentation into an animated narrative by using Kanva Magic Animate. We are going to harness the power of magic animate to apply customization animation to an entire design in just a second. Let us begin by opening a new presentation and choosing from the as of templates provided. For this example, I will select the annual company report template. While the template is visually appealing and well organized, you will notice that it lacks animation and transition between pages. It's time to change that. Now, all you need to do is look for the animate button situated above your design canvas. Click on it. Then choose the magic animate option. In just a few seconds, Kanva will suggest an animation style that compliments your presentations content along with the alternative styles, if your recommendation does not suit your needs. After selecting a style, you will find your presentation fully animated without the need to do any manual slide by slide work. You can enter presentation mode or full screen mode and navigate through these slides to see how the animations and transitions have seamlessly integrated with your content narrative. Should you find any transition or effect not by your liking, you have the option to adjust the animation style or remove it entirely. As we explore through magic animate, remember that animation can significantly enhance the storytelling aspect of your designs. It's not just about adding motions to your slides. It's about creating narrative that capvates your audience. Alright, I will see you in the next lecture. 9. Canva Magic Switch: Translate Like a Pro: Creating content in one language and then having the ability to convert it into multiple language is a powerful way to connect with your audience globally. In this lecture, I will show you how you can do that. Here, we are going to learn how to translate your designs into another language by using Canvas magic switch capabilities. Once you are on a page with texts or information you want to translate, simply select magic switch on the top bar. Then click on translate. Next, you have the option to select the language you want to translate into. Canva supports more than 100 languages, which is fantastic, by the way. In our case, let us go for Chinese simplified. Then you can choose the pages where you want the translation to occur. This can be your entire presentation or a single page. Lastly, an important step is to decide whether to translate within this existing design by overriding the content or if you prefer, create a new copy. A copy is created by default unless you tick mark the override box. Now whenever you are ready, click on translate. You will immediately see your chosen text or your chosen content is translated into the language of your choice. Now there is also another way to approach translation if you want to get more granule and integrity with specific page details. Go ahead and select a text element you like. Then click on the three dots and pick the translate text option. This will enable a whole new menu on the left hand side. There, you have few additional options. You can pick the combination of textbook you want to translate, or you can also go to setting tabs where you can select the option to resize funds when a translation does not fit a design. The rest remains the same as we have discussed earlier, and then all you need to do is click on the translate button. Amazing, right? That's the magic of Kanva Magic switch. I will see you in another one. 10. Transform Presentations to Documents with Canva: Now, let us explore another component of magic switch, which is known as transform into Doc. We will go over how you can convert your designs or your presentation into various text based formats. To access this feature, go to Magic switch and click on transform into Doc. The options that will appear are the text formats you can convert to. You can convert a summary of your entire design, which will compiles all of the texts from every page into a document. You can also create a blog post, a e mail, a poem, or a song lyrics from the content in your presentation. Well, this is something. This feature is incredibly powerful and allowing from the adaptation of the same message into a different forms. In our example, let us strike converting our exercise files into a block post. Canva will process the entire design, which might take some time depending on the length of your design. But once that transformation is done, you can open your document and find a well organized block post. Complete with a title. Introduction paragraph and headings from each slide as interpreted by Canvas AI. I highly recommend experimenting with a different form of transformation as the end result or the final result is always creative and interesting. Okay, that's all for this lecture, and I will see you in another one. 11. Canva's Magic Studio AI-Powered Writing Tools: Did you know that Kanva has an inbuilt chat GPT like feature to automate your writing desk? Well, let us explore on this feature. In this lesson, we will talk about how to use Kanvas magic write features to generate textual content with prompts. First, open a brand new document in Kanva. Click on the plus icon, then choose the magic write option. It is similar to chat GPT. You can request a content piece like a block post, let's say five tips from healthy eating block post, and then click on generate. Almost instantly, the content is generated, providing you with your desired tips. This can be serve as a starting point to expand or modify or even refine. If you want another iteration of this text or a specific section, highlight it, click on Magic write, and you will see several options. You can summarize rewrite, make it more fun or even use the sprinkle fell redst option for a playful twist. For spelling corrections, there is also an option available here. Amazing write. Now when it comes to creating AA Power presentation or AI Power Social Media blog post. Kanva has got your back. Kanwa has integrated this capability seamlessly into their platform. Let's go over to generate different design formats with written AI prompts. For the home page, you can navigate to Magic Studio. Let's go ahead and select magic design for presentations. It's incredibly simple to activate the AI for your presentation. First, click on the search bar and write your prompt as you are searching for a template. For this instance, I have written a peach from social media digital product, and in seconds, magic design will generate a few options. These designs will reflect your prompt and often include fully created presentations with graphics, text formatting, and a well structured design. Can enhance this by selecting a specific media or your brand template, which will change the design and the color schema of the suggested presentations. In essence, the prompt will run again with this new parameters. Pretty awesome right. To finalize your design, simply pick the presentation of your choice and apply it to all of the pages. It is important to note here that you can repeat the same process from every other social media platform. The mechanics are same. The output will be even more interesting. 12. Canva: Media to Video in Minutes: Now it's time to talk about how you can upload your media, and then Canva will convert that media or photos into videos instantly. I will show you how you can do it in Kana. On the Kanva home page, select the video option to open a blank design. On the left hand side panel, you will notice a tile inviting you to generate videos instantly. This is where Kanvas AI comes into play, offering you the chance to select a mix of your creative assets, and then turning them into an amazing and stunning video. There is a minimum of three assets required, but you can select up to ten. Following your selection, Kana will ask from the prompt. You want to describe the video you want to create. For instance, you might request a short ad for a travel plan. Upon hitting generate, Kanva will sprink into action incorporating various visual elements, music, and even transition for a new video. Well, it is important to remember that as the AA learns and strive from improvement, not every detail of your style and structure of the video might align with your preference. However, this can serve as an excellent foundation, and with bit of editing and personalization, the final video can be transformed into something even better. So that's the power of Kanva AI, and I will conclude this course. All right, I will see you in the next lecture, where we will talk about our class project or our class homework. 13. Class Project: Hello, and welcome back, everyone. In this lecture, we are going to discuss about our class homework or our class project. The class project for you is going to be completing any one of the exercise in that exercise file. Let me show you how we can complete your exercise file and upload a screenshot or upload a URN of the exercise file into the project section. As you can say, this is our exercise file.
