1. Introduction Chose the Appropriate Document Type: Hey guys, In this tutorial, I'm going to teach
you how to create these animated video with music, transitions and sound
effects like this one. This is going to
be very exciting. So I suggest that you
guys stay until the end. And if you guys are
ready for this tutorial, so let's go to my computer. We're going to create
this video with Canvas. So go to canva.com and
go to the video section. I'm going to create a
landscape mode video. So that's why I'm going to select the first option
we see right here. But if you need to create a video with
different dimensions, you can select this
one right here for a square video format, or this one for a
vertical format, gonna go for the first one. And while we wait for
the editor to open, I want to explain to you that
we're going to work with some videos and audio that are available only for
combat Pro users. But if you have a Canva free account and we
like to follow this tutorial, you can do it if you have
your own videos and audio. And I will show you how to upload your own
videos and audio.
2. Upload, Trim and Crop Video: So for this specific project, I have a video that
I want to work with. I'm gonna go to the
Uploads section. And from here you can upload your own images,
videos, and audio. So I'm going to upload my video. Here I have my video. And then if you
upload your videos, you will find them
under this tab. If you upload it,
although you will find them under audio. Also, if you have a free account and would like to follow
this tutorial and get the same outcome using the same Pro videos and
audio and sound effects. I'm going to leave you guys a 45 pretrial of Canva pro in the
description of this video. And like this, you can use
all the Pro videos, images, elements, and also all the pro features available
for Canva pro users. My video is fully
uploaded to Canvas. So now I'm going to bring it to my empty page by just
clicking on the video. And now let's work
with this video using these timeline or
these thumbnails at the bottom of the page. So I don't need to crop anything at the
beginning of this video, but I need to separate
this video because I knew that I wanted to have two different sections
of the video. So I recorded the first section. And then I did a small
pause that I need to cut, and then we will have the
second section of the video. So let me find that
section where I stopped. Found this section
where I want to cut. So I just bring this
guide over here, right-click and split page k. So let me double-check. Yeah, this looks good. And now I need to
find this section where I started talking for
the second part of the video. So I guess somewhere
here, let me check. This is going to be very thin. So I guess this is it. Somewhere here,
Right-click split image. And now, because these page number two doesn't
have anything interesting, I'm going to delete it. Right-click and delete page. Okay, I'm going to
double-check that everything at the beginning of
the video is fine. And also I'm going
to check if I need to crop anything at
the end of the video. We're going to be very thin, so I suggest that you do. Okay, so I guess I can crop this section right
here so I can do it by just dragging the lateral
until I meet my guide. Case. I guess this is this is good. Now that I have these two
sections of the video ready, we're going to bring some
frames and some animations to the background of the v. So
let's start with the frames. For these. Let's go to
the elements section. And we're going below until
we see the frame section. Click on see all in the first section of the
video because I want to have a
cinematographic feeling, I'm going to try to find a
frame related to this topic. So let's see film. I'm not sure if I'm going to
find what I need in here. But if I don't find it, I still want to show you these frames because these
are pretty cool. Okay? I didn't find what I
needed, but maybe roll. Yes. I have here three or four different
frames that you can use. So it could be either this one, this one, or this one. I think I'm gonna go
for the first option. And let me bring it to the middle of the page,
middle and center. Now, I'm going to bring my video inside the frame
by just dragging it and now come back automatically crops the
video inside the frame. If you want to adjust the video, just double-click and adjust
the position of the video. Or you can also
stretch the video. For the second
section of the video, I'm going to use a
different frames, so I'm going to close
or delete this search. And I'm going to use
these round frames. Go now again, drag
my video inside the frame and adjust
if necessary. Click then. Once you have your
videos into the frames, we're going to add
some animations, some other videos in the
background of our designs.
4. Add Videos to the Background: So it is important for
us to double-check first the duration or the length of the videos that we have
inside these frames. And we can check
that information in the thumbnails down below. You will see that on
each thumbnail we have eight thumbnail for page number one and another one
for page number two. On the bottom corner, on the left you
will see a number. So actually both one of my
pages have 9.2 seconds. Now let's go to the video section and we're
going to search for film. As I told you, I want to have a cinematographic kind of style on the first
section of my video. So let's go to page number one, and I'm going to use
these video right here called old movie. I just bring it to the
background of my page. And remember that I told you to check the duration of
your video before. This is because
when we insert one of these videos to our page, they duration is going to change to the length
of this video. So this one is 20 seconds and the duration of my
video is 20 seconds. Now, if I leave it like that, then the video inside the frame, it's going to loop because
we have a longer duration. So after the 9.2 seconds
is going to start again. To avoid these, we're going
to crop the duration of our page back to
9.2 legged these, we have the same duration that we have on
the video inside, different in both the videos are going to have
the same duration. Basically, we're going to do the same for the second page. This time, I'm going to
use a different video. Let's search for dust. And in here we have
different options. Also, I want to mention that these videos are available
for combat producers. As I mentioned at the
beginning of the video, you will see these
prom crowns and the sound effects and videos
that we're going to use later on are also going to be available for
combat producers. So you can preview these
videos by hovering on top of them or by bringing them to the background of your design. I'm going to use this one
called dust particles. And again, this video is longer, has a longer duration than
the value inside the frame. So I'm going to crop it until we have a duration of 9.2 seconds. There we go.
7. Add Sub elements to the Project: I'm going to add an animation
to page number two, just to add something
interesting to our videos. So let's go to elements. Let's go back to
the main section. And in here, go to stickers. See, we're going to open the section or the category
called shapes stickers. And in here we're going to find a sticker that has
a circular shape. I'm looking for something with movement, hopefully colors. So it adds something fresh
and colorful to these videos. I think these sticker can work. So let's bring it to our
design position back. We can adjust the size. So let's adjust the
size of our video so we see just a little
section of this thicker. Now let me show you how to add
transitions to your video. Let's say that you want to add a transition from
page number one. You've page number two in
this document because I have two videos or I have two
sections of the same video, I will see this plus icon. When you click on it, you
will see these two options. So we're going to click
on the second one, the one that is below
to add a transition. Now we'll have the
transitions window open and we have five different
transitions to choose from. We have this whole
slide, circle, wipe, wipe, and match, and move this much and move. You can create simple animations that are really easy to do. And I'm going to leave you
guys a video right here. You can go to minute 549 and you will find
more information about this transition in there
for this particular video, I'm gonna go for circle wipe, and I'm going to select out. I really liked this transition. So let me show you this is going to look
something like this. And because the two sections of the video have a
similar background, both have a black background. The transition is
not so easy to see. So I'm going to show you a
little trick that you can use to add some color
to these transitions. We're going to click on this
button in-between two pages. And this time we're
going to select the little button that is
on top that says Add Page. Now we have a page in-between the two
sections of our video. We're going to add a
color to the background. So I'm gonna use a yellow color. Then I'm going to reduce the duration of
this page to 0.7. Now I'm going to add
a new transition in-between these page number
two and page number three. So again, I'm going to click on the plus icon and
add transition. Let's go again to
circle wipe and out. Now let's preview how these
little transition is looking. Okay, This is looking great. Now I'm going to add another animation to page
number three because I think there is an animation that
is going to go really well with the sound effect that
I'm going to show you today. So let's select the
sticker on the background, go to animate, and select, do the same for the
video. So animate. And now I'm going to
show you how to add sound effects to the transitions and how to add music
to your video. Let's start with
the transitions. So to do this, go to audio on the
left-hand side, and we're going
to search for an, a specific sound effect that you can find by searching for mouth. Up here we have the two sound effects that
we're going to use today. And to insert them, we're going to
bring this guide or this black line to the beginning of first transition position. They guide there and then
select mouth Bob number one. Then we're going to add another sound effect to the second part of
the transition. So we're going to
position the guide where we want the
sound effect to go. So we're going to select this
time mouth Bob number two. Then we can preview
our video to see if the transition is sync
with our sound effects. This is k. So I think the
second one is looking good. The first one could go a little bit before.
Let me double-check. Yes, Actually, maybe
just a little bit after. Somewhere here. Be great. And talking about sound effects, I have another video
in which I teach you five different keywords to find five sound effects
inside Canvas. So I'm going to leave you
guys that video in here so you can check it out after
finishing these Dorians. Once we have our sound
effects reading and they are linked with
our transitions, Let's add music to our videos. So I'm gonna go back to
our, all of your sections. So let's close this
search and you can find music in here on
the audio section. You have different sections
like happy pub, epic, etc. In my case, I know that I
want to have a hip hop song, so I just type hiphop. And because in this
video I'm speaking, I don't want the
voices in the music to compete with the
voice in my videos. Because they have
become a pro account, I can filter my results
and I can select only instrumentals,
apply a filter. So here I have this
search result. I'm going to move my guide to the beginning of the video
before adding my songs. So I want to add this one right here and I have the song in. Maybe you're gonna
show you again what happens if I don't position the guide at the
beginning of the video? Let's say that my guide
is somewhere here. And I add this song. This will go where the guide is. So that's why let's bring this guy to the beginning
and add the song. What I'd like to
do when I'm adding songs or tracks to my videos in Canva is to lower the volume because I didn't know if that happens with you. But the videos that
I upload to Canva, they have a lower volume than the tracks that are
available in Canvas. So to do this, I select this song. Then go to the Volume icon and reduce the volume,
let's say 215. You can preview your
video and see if you can increase or decrease
the volume of the track.
10. Fade in out the Music: Another trick that
is pretty recent in Canva and that we can add to make our videos
more professional. Is this. Select the track and then you will see these
audio effects button. This is a new feature in Canva. Select it, and then
you can add a fade in and fade out to your son. That means that in this case, I'm adding a fading of 1 second at the
beginning of my son. So basically the song
goes to 0 volume to silence to the volume
that we gave this song too, then we can do the same
to fade out the music. The music is not shaft, but it goes down to
silence in 1 second. So we have a fade in and
fade out in our track. And then you can preview again to see if your video looks good.
12. How to Download Video: Once you have your video ready, let me show you how
to download it. And this part is very
important because if you are planning to upload
this video to YouTube, you need to follow these steps. So let's go to the
Share button. But done. Let's go to the Share button
at the top of the screen, then go to Download MP4
and select all pages. Done. Now, here comes the
important part. You will like to connect your YouTube channel to
your Canvas account. You will do it by
clicking on this link. Can be is going to open
this little window. And I'm going to read this
message because this is why we are connecting
our channel to combat. It says to avoid music
copyright claims connect your social accounts
so we can clear your video on the
following platforms. This is important, so we
don't get copyright claims. You will see here YouTube and then connect, click on Connect. And this video will pop up, select your email account and select your YouTube channel. This is the last step. Just click on Allow. Then coming back to the editor, you will see that
next to YouTube, there is the name of
your YouTube channel. This means that
your channel is now connected to Canva and then
you can click download. If you want to see the final
outcome of this project, you can see again the beginning, the intro of this tutorial, which is exactly the same
video we just created.
