2. What is Canva and Why It’s Perfect for VAs: So in this lesson, we are going
to look at what is Camber exactly and why
is it perfect for social media managers
and virtual assistant. Camba is a graphic design tool, which is web based, meaning you can access it
from your computer browser. You can access it without having to download something
in your computer, and that makes it more
accessible to everyone, because if you have to install
an app in your computer, it might be slowing
down your computer, especially if you
are working with a small version
of your computer, but accessing it
web based will give you an ability to access it
from any type of browser. And the main thing that
makes it perfect for beginners to graphic
design in general, is it is very easy to learn. It reach a perfect balance between easy to learn
and aholdability. If you have to use a
graphic design software like maybe Porto Shop, it is very hard to
learn Photoshop. But with camber, it's
just very easy to learn. With just some practice, a few weeks, maybe just
one week of practice, you will be able to start using camber and creating
good graphics, compared to if you have to learn Photoshop that will
take you a long time. It is very easy to learn and
it is easily accessible, and it is very avoidable also. You don't even have to pay for the premium version of Camber
in order to start using it. When I started using Camber, I used CamboPo very
long time with only the pre version
without having to pay for the P. I started
paying for the P only after I was making money
as a virtual assistant. Then I had the money
to pay for it. So Cava is a perfect
substitute for photoshop. You don't need to spend
a lot of time learning, and you can still create
very good garapis with it, and that is what
makes it perfect for Batual assistant and
social media managers. And in the next lesson,
we are going to look at the free
and the probation. And we are going to look at which one do you
have to start with. So I'm going to see you
in the next lesson.
3. Free vs. Pro – Which One Do You Need?: In this lesson, we
are going to look at the free version of Camba
and the probation of amber. We are going to look
at the differences, and we are also going to look
at which one do you need in order to start creating
social media graphics. So there are some major
differences between the free version of Camber
and the probion of camber. And one major thing
is the template. You know when you are
creating graphics, any type of graphics, amba has template,
and those template makes it very easy to
create any type of graphic. And so the limitation is if you have only
the free version, a lot of the template are going
to be in the pro version. You are still going
to have access to many template in
the pre version, but you are going to be
searching for a template and you will pan many templates
that you really like. And when you just want to
start using the template, you are going to find out
there in the prosion. This is one of the
major downside of using the pre
version of camber. There are many other things
also that are directed. Things like removing background. This is one feature that I really like and I use it a lot. You can input any graphic encama any type of photo and
with simple one click, you can remove the
background of the feature, and that feature is allowed, is only included in the prosion when it comes
to using stock images, stock images, majority of their stock images is
in the probon also. Something applies to
the stock videos. But when it comes to stock
images and stock videos, that is not a huge thing for me because you
combine stock images and stock videos in a lot of different places
places like Pixels, Pixel Bay, you combine stock videos and
stock images there. So that is not a
huge thing for me. And when it comes
to some element, there are some template or
there are some elements that are also restricted
to the probation. For example, if you want to use, let's say, an arrow pointing to something in newer graphics, when you search in the template, you might find some arrows
that look really good, but they are going
to be restricted to all users in the probation. These are the main differences between the pre
and the probation. Many things are going
to be resticted. But if you are just
getting started, you want to learn
graphic design. Do you need to pay
for the probation? I will tell you, no, you don't need to pay
for the proversion. I learned camber, started
working with Camber, I become good at
Camber using Camber without paying for
the proversion. One good thing is
Camber has a pre trial. So as soon as you
create your account, you are going to have
access to the free trial, and you can sign up for the tree trial for the free trial, if you want to test some
of the premium features, and you can test everything. I think it's seven
days or 14 days, and you can test a lot of
the probation features in the free trial period
so that you'll know how it works even if you don't want to continue
paying for it. When you are just
getting started, you don't really
need the probation, but when you sign up, you will have access
to the pre trial, which is going to be
an opportunity for you to test all their
premium pictures. And in the next lesson, I'm going to share my
screen and show you how to set up your new
account in Camber. So I'm going to see you there.
4. Setting Up Your Canva Account: So in this lesson, I'm going
to share Masculine and show you how to create your
new account in Camber. But if you already have your
account in Camber created, you can skip this lesson. But if you don't have
an account in Camber, then you can follow along and
set up your Camber account. I'm going to share Masculine
so we can get started. So the first thing that you
need to do is obviously, you go to Camber
website and you can simply go to
camber.com right here. Then you search in your
browser camber.com, you are going to
land on this page. That is if you don't
have an account already, you are going to land
on this page and you can simply click
this button here, sign up in order to
create your account. So I already have an
account with this. This is my main account, but
I'm not going to use it. Since I want to show you how
to do it from the start, I'm going to continue
with another account. And you can sign off
either with a pun number, was your Google account. Always with your Facebook
account, always email. I normally like to sign up for things with my GML account. It's just easier. I don't have ticket for remembering password. So I'm going to click
Continue with Google, and I'm going to choose the GML account that I
want to continue with. I will cl continue so these are some
onboarding questions that they will ask you in order
to personalize your account. You can skip this or
you can simply go ahead and choose whatever
you want to choose. In this case, I'm simply
going to choose personal. What will you be using mbopoo? I will choose personal.
What I want to focus on, I'm going to choose
social media content and collect continue. Start my free trial. I'm going to say,
yes, you can skip. If you skip, you are going
to use the free account. But why not? I'm going
to start the pre trial. I'm going to choose
monthly, click on next, and you are going to have to add a payment details so
that after the 30 days, they had given me
30 days pre trial. So after the 30 days, I'm going to start paying for the pro for the P. So I'm going to just
add my payment details. Okay, great. It looks like I am subscribed to the pre
trial, 30 day pre trial. I'm going to take a look,
got it. And that is it. I have created my
Camber account, and I'm subscribed
to the free trial. In the next lesson, I'm going
to show you how to navigate your homepage and get access to all the navigation
items in Camber. So I'm going to see
you in the next one.
5. Navigating the Canva Dashboard: So in this lesson, I'm going to show you how to start navigating the homepage of
Camber and how to access all the key
areas of camber. I'm going to share my screen
so we can get started. So this is homepage of camber. When you go to camber.com, if you are logged in, you are
going to be on this page. And as soon as you logged in, this is where you
are going to be. And the first thing that
we are going to look at is right here,
this top navigation. You see this button
when you click on it, you are going to see
all the designs that you currently have right
here on this page. If we scroll here, you
created some designs, they are going to be right here, you are going to
see all designs. But because this is a new
account, this is empty. If you collect here,
you are going to see R designs and since we
don't have any design, this is going to be empty. You see it is empty. We don't have any
powder or anything, and if you select template, then this BU is going to be
template B If you search, anything you are going to search in the Camber template library, you see when you
scroll down here, these are some
template from camber. And if you do a search here, you are going to search
in the Camber library. But if you are on this
tab, if you do a search, you are going to search
in your own designs, the designs and the
polders that you created. So most times you are
going to be watching in the template in
the template bar. This is an addition that added, I think, one or two
months ago, Camber EI. When you select it, this
is where you are going to be creating designs with EI. You can describe an idea and Camber is going
to create it for you. These are all the things
that you can create with AI. We are going to look
at the next thing. The next thing is this
sidebar, this left sidebar. This is going to give you
quick access to some things. You see, these are some like utorials from
Camber that you are going to be if you
want to check out, you can check them out, but this is not something
that I really ever look at. And if you want
to invite people, you can do it from here, but probably you
are not going to be inviting people to
your Camber account. If you scroll down here, if you have some designs that
you mark them with Ester, they are going to be here. And if you have
some team members, you are going to see the stars designs that they
mark with Ester. And if you scroll down, you are going to see
your recent designs. Meaning if you
create some designs, they are going to be down here. This is going to make more sense if we start carating designs. And if you come down
here to this sidebar, the first thing you will notice
is this big plus or icon. And if you click this plus icon, this is where we are going
to start creating designs. When I click on it, you
see this pop of I fear, and we can choose a
design from this side, but if we want to
create maybe sheet, a Google Sheet, we can select here and we are going to see
some Google Sheet template. If we want to create
some document, we are going to
colct here and we can see some document
template here. If we choose a
whiteboard, presentation, social media, are going to see the designs relevant to
what we choose right here. You see these are all template
of social media graphics, and if we come up here, you see we can choose to
see Popular template, or you can see
Instagram template, or we can see Facebook
template or LinkedIn template, and we are going to see
them all down here. Alternatively, if you want
to create a custom design, meaning a design that is not that you just come up with the size and
everything you yourself, you can come down here and
you can choose custom size. When you click Custom Size, you can add a width and height and you can
create a custom design, and you can upload
graphics here. If you click Upload, you can upload piles to
your Camber account. And we can click this icon
to get out of this thing. And right here is our home tab. If you click on it, no
matter where you are, you are going to come back
to this home tab right here. If you click on a project, you are going to see
all your designs and the folders
that you created. Since we haven't created any design up folder,
this is empty. And template, you are going to go to the template library. So this is a
template library you can start going through and
start working with them. This is a brand that you can add your brand kit to
start working with it, you brand kit or your
client brand kit. And if you come down here, this is Camber AI and this is
apps that you will use to, you will add to your
Camber account. Probably most of
the times you are going to be working
with Project, template, and this plus icon. So this is the general
navigation of Camber homepage. This is how you can access almost all the things in Camber. In the next lesson, we are
going to start looking at how to start creating your
design from scratch. So I'm going to see you
in the next lesson.
6. Creating a New Design from Scratch: So in this lesson, I'm
going to show you how to start creating your
design from scratch. We are going to see
how you can start creating Instagram Posty
design from scratch. I'm going to share my screen
so we can get started. So in order to start
creating our design, we want to determine which
design we want to create. We want to create a
social media graphic but we want to create
Instagram poster design. So we can choose from this
quick access menu right here. If we choose social media, we are going to see
social media template, and we can choose Instagram. And these are three
sizes of Instagram post. If we want to create
a normal post, this is a dimension we want. If we want to create
a square post, this is a dimension
that we want. If we want Instagram story, we want this dimension. If we go again, we can see all the
other dimensions. But to make things easy, we want to create
a square graphic. So we can simply
click on this one, and it is going to open in any tab and we can start
creating our design. So this is the editor
page of camber. You see, right now, we
have the right dimension. This is the right dimension
of Instagram squire graphic. The first thing I want to
do is rename my design. Right at the top, you see on title design,
I want to change it. I'm going to say my
first Instagram design. And I will clic
Enter to save it. So now, this is the
name of my design. And in order to start creating, this is a navigation
menu that we are going to use to start
creating our design. Right now we are
on the design tab, and you see on the design tab, we are going to see template, and you can scroll
through the template, find the one you like and import it and start
working with it. You can come to style and
make it more specific, or you can even search. But I'm going to
show you how to work with template in
the next lesson. Right now, I'm going
to show you the basics of how the editor
works so that you will have a better
understanding of how it works before you start
working with template. And the first thing
we are going to look at is these items again, right now we are in
the design template when we come to element, this is where we are going
to have access to element. Element is something
like maybe a square, a shape, an arrow,
anything like that, if we choose maybe I search for arrow right here
in the search bar, we are going to find some
element of an arrow. I'm sorry. I I search for arrow again, click on Enter, you see we
are going to have arrows. Under shape, we can
see arrow in shapes. Shape is simply a normal
shape. You see how it looks. If we come to graphics, we are going to see
a more visually attractive designs
under graphics, and if we come to photos, are going to see pictures. But the downside
of using a picture as an element is if
you import a picture, you cannot change
it to scol or make some adjustments there
are many limitations. So if you want to use element, most times you are going to
work with graphic element, and you can simply click
anyone that you want if we select this one
if we click on it, it is going to be
added to the page. And if we come to
text or uploads, if we upload some piles, they are going to be
here, we can add them to the page right here
under element. If we click X and
clear everything, if we come down here,
this is videos, and this is portals. If you click CO, we are going to see
all the pictures. We can search for a picture. Can search for maybe nice house. When I click Enter, I'm going to see
some nice houses. If I click and I
add it to my page, I can we click and set
it in the background. And now I have this
and I can import it. So this is how you can start creating designs from scratch. You select the dimension of the graphic you
want to create. You open it in a
new tab and you use this navigation item to
add element to I page, rearrange element, change
colors, and make it good. In the next lesson,
I'm going to show you how to import a template and make it good looking and change things to make it
your on graphic. I'm also going to show you
in the upcoming lessons how to actually open a
blank design like this one, add element or arrange them and make it exactly the
way you want it to be. But for now, this is a
basic of how to open a design Editor and start adding element on
your design Editor. What I just need you to
do right now is spend some time adding some
items on your page, just write arranging stuff, just to get a little bit
familiar with how it works. And in the next
lesson, I'm going to show you how to work
with a template. Then eventually we
are going to come to the point where we
can create a design. Custom design totally
problems scratch. I'm going to see you
in the next lesson.
7. Creating Designs Using Templates: So in this lesson,
I'm going to show you how to start
working with template, how to start creating new
graphics from a template. I'm going to share my screen
so we can get started. So there are two ways
to access a template. If you search for a
template right here, you remember how
we search and we come to this page from
the previous lesson. If you scroll down here, you are going to have template, and you can choose from the
template that are right here. Any template that you click
is going to open in a new tf. And alternatively, if you
already create a template, or if you already create a design an empty
design like this, you can come to the
design tab right here, and you will have access
to access to template. You can simply start
scrolling to find a template that you
like, or you can search. Right here, you can
search a template. Let's say I want to create Ops, I added this one by mistake, so I'm going to delete it. So if you search right
here, let's say, I want to create a
real estate design. So I'm going to
simply search for real estate and click on Enter, and I'm going to see
designs that are related or relevant
to real estate. You see all of these designs
are real estate designs. And if you scroll and you find
any design that you like, let's say I like this one,
I can simply click on it, and it will be added to
my design right here. One thing I want to
point out is not all the template available
in the pre version. If you are scrolling
among the template, any template that
has this crown icon, it means it is part
of the pro version. And any template that doesn't
have this crown icon, you can use it in
the pre version. You can see the
crown icon clearly from display or even
from this search bar. If you are scrolling, you
will see any design that has this crown it is only
available in the pro version, and any design that
doesn't have the crown, you can use it totally
in the free version of Camber and the same
thing applies to images. Anything in Camber that you
see with this crown icon, it means this is only
accessible in the pro version. The next thing that we
are going to do after we scroll and we find a
design that we like, we add it right here, is maybe you want to pine
multiple template. This is how I normally
work with template. I will find maybe three
template that I like, then I will try to customize and customize one
that I really like. So now I pined one that I like, I can simply click Add
page right here to add another page below
my first template. And I can scroll again to find another
template that I like. Let's say I like this one, I will click to
add it on my page, and I will click Add page
again to add another page, and I can scroll right here and find another
template that I like. Maybe I like this one, I can click on it and
add it to my design. You can add pages
as many pages as you like and add as many
templates as you like, and I can look at them
and choose the one that I really like and start
making changes to it. Unless say I want to start making changes to this template, the way that we can start making changes to template is click on anything and you edit
it. This is a text. If I want to edit this text, I can click on it
once to select it, and I can click on it twice to select the text that is inside. And if you double click on it, it didn't highlight entirely. You can click Control A, and you can highlight
all the text, but make sure you double
click on it first. Because you click if you do one click and
you click Control A, you are going to select
everything on the design. So if you want to
highlight only one text, you can double click on it, and then you can do Control A, and you highlight everything and you can change
it to anything. You can write
anything and you can simply replace the text. So this is how you can edit any text that is on a template. And if you want to maybe
change the order of things, all you need to do is click
and select and you click again and drag anything
anywhere to make changes to it, and you can undo
changes in camber. Let's say I make this change
by mistake and I move it away and I want you to get back to where it was originally, I can either collect this icon. This is going to undo
the change that I did. You see it came back right
to the place it was. If I do undo again, it is going to undo the
other change I did, I can keep doing undo until I, you see it came back to the
first change that I made. So this is how you
can edit a text, change a disposition,
and you can undo a change if you change
something by mistake. Next thing you can do is
move items in a group. By example, these are two texts, and they are on a white border. And if you want to
change their position and you have to drag
each one individually, it's easy to change
to mess things up. So if you want to
move tins in a group, you can select all of the
tins that are in the group. Let me start by selecting
this box white box. When I click, I select it, I can hover over the first text, and I will hold
shipped and click. I do this, I select
the box and this text. Now I have only one text left. I will hold shift
again and click on it. So now all of these three
items are selected. If I drag, you see they
are dragged all together. And alternatively, I can click group after I
select all of them. When I click group, then they are going to
be grouped together. So anytime I drag anything, they are going to go together. And you can do this with
anything on the page. If you select this text, you can double click,
make changes to it. And if you want to
change its position, you can drag it
anywhere you want. You can click Control Z or use this button to undo
the change you did, and you can select as
many things by holding shipped and select anything that you select after
you hold shipped, is going to be
selected together. And when you drag,
you are going to drag all the items together. So this is how you
can select things, change order of things, and you can change text, change all of the things
that are on the page. Next thing that I will show
you is how to change colors. For example, this
is a white box. If you select it, if you want to change the
color of this box, this is where you will do it. This top navigation bar, when you click here, cool, it is going to open right here and you can change
the colo prom here. You can either scroll down
and use some of the colors that are in here or you can write a color code right here. Let's say I want to
use this color code. You see the colo,
I can select it. And now you see I changed
the color of this box, but the text is not
visible enough, so I can select the
text itself again, and I can come up here. If I select a text, then the colo icon is under
this E. This is a colo icon. But if I select something
that is not a text, this is a colo icon. So I'm changing a text, I will select it and
I will choose this A, and I can change it to white. I can select the
other text of here, come to the color and
change it to white. This is how you can start
changing colors also. You can do this with all
the element on the page. You can change their
colors this way. The next thing I will show you is how to change background. You see right now we have
this house as the background. If you double click
on the background, you see you can
change its position. You see because it's an image. If you penish you
can collect it do, and now the position of
the image has changed. You can co Control Z or this icon to come
back to how it was. If you want to change
the background entirely, you can change it to
either a solid color or a gradient color
or another image. Let's say we want to remove
this image as the background, we can simply select it and we can click Delete
from our keyboard. Now we remove the background. Let's say we want
to replace it with a colo. We can simply
select the background and we can choose the colo
icon right here and we can click this Cancel icon to remove the color that
I previously added, and we can choose a color right here from the colo library. If I want to add a solid color. These are some default
colors I can choose from or I can write
a color that I want, or I can use a gradient
color right here. A gradient color,
let me just show you the difference if I
select this deep blue. You see this is a solid color. If I choose a gradient color, you see this part is a little blue and then it
blend into a blue. When there are more
than one color, it blend in that is
gradient. You can do this. You can either choose
a solid color or a gradient color or you can write a color coded
from right here. Now you have a nice background. If you want to replace the
solid color with an image, you can simply come
to the element tave and you can come to images, ports right here, click CO, and we can search for
a nice house again. And maybe if I like this one, I can click on it to
add it to the page. And if I want to make
it a background, I will simply right click on it. And when I scroll down, I will say replace background. When I click here, you see now this image
is our background. I can double click on it and drag it to adjust its position, click on Done, and now
this is our image. So this is how you can change background and all the
element on a template. So the next thing that I
will show you is how to add items that are not on
the image entirely. Let's say you want to
add your client logo. So we can simply come to upload. And we can upload a file. Any file, if you want
to add any image that is not on the template entirely, you can click Upload pile, and your polders are
going to come off. Let's say we want
to add this logo, so we can select it and we can click on Often or we
can select two images. You can select one
or multiple ones. I will select this one, and my fixture I can hold
shipped and select it, so I select two items. I will click often. They are going to be uploaded. And when they
finish, I can simply click on it to add
it to the page, and I can click it,
adjust it disposition, and I can click this corner
to reduce its size like this, reduce, make it smaller
or big like this, and I can adjust its position. And we cannot see
it clearly because it has it blending
with the background. You can add a white background
like this one to it, and you can do this by
coming to the element. And we can get out of portos. And under fs, we can
add maybe this one. When we click on it, it had
been added to the page. We can come to the colo
and we can make it white. And then we can dalg it and
adjust as position like this. And right now you see
it cover our logo. If we want our logo
to be visible, we can click on it, choose layer, and
choose send to back. So now it is at the back
and our logo is at the top. And we can change the size
of images, images, text. Anything we can change
the size this way. By using this corner, you can drag to reduce to increase or reduce the
size of any element. This doesn't look very good, so we can simply select it and
click Delete to delete it. So this is how you can start
working with template. You can find a template
that you like, make changes to it, and
make it entirely your own. In the next lesson, I'm
going to show you how to pin the right dimension for each and any social
media platform. So I'm going to see
you in the next one.
8. Adding Text, Shapes, Media and Elements: So in this lesson, I'm going
to show you how to start adding text, shapes, media, and elements to your design
so that you'll know exactly where to pin each item and how to start making
changes to them. I'm going to share my screen
so we can get started. So this is our first
design, right? In order to start creating to start adding all shapes
element and stuff, I don't want to change this, so I'm going to duplicate it. In order to duplicate a design, you can simply click Disbton. You duplicate a design if you have a design
that you like, but you want to make
some changes and you don't want to mess up the
main design that you have. So when I click here, you see now I have
the two designs. I can go ahead and make all the changes I want to this one. And in case I don't like
the changes I make, I can take a look at
the original one that I have and use it as a reference. So the first thing that
I will show you is how to start adding
text to your design. Let's say we take a look at
this design and we want to add a call to action
somewhere at the top, and we want to remove this. In order to remove anything, you simply select it and click
Delete from your keyboard, or you click the trash
icon right here. And you see the element
had been removed. And if we want to add a text, we can simply come
to right here, this left sidebar,
we select text, and we can choose add a heading. When I select it, I click on it. You see a heading
had been added. And another way
to add a heading, this is a basic heading. Another way to add a
heading is to scroll down. When we scroll down,
you see right here, we have some custom
design point. And instead of adding
this basic black text, if we choose maybe this
one, we click on it. You see it had been added to
the page with the styling, so we don't have to do
the styling ourselves. So if you scroll and you find a nice point and
arrangement that you like, you can simply click and
add it to your page. You see we have added
this new one also. But since we added this one and it blend in with
the background, we are going to
change it as colo. I can come up here.
You remember, I will select the text. Because there are two texts, a headline and a sub headline, I will select the
first headline and I will choose the
text color option, and I will change it to white. I will choose the
subheading also. I will choose the colo and I will change it to white.
It is white also. We can change the
color a little bit. You remember if you
want a custom color, you can write the code here. If you want to choose
from the colors that have here, you can choose. And if you want to edit
a color, for example, I select white, but
I want to make it a little bit gray,
so I can select. You see two icons right here
when I Her over the color, when you click on
it, the editor will open that you will be
able to change the color. You see, instead of
having a total white FFF, I can click here and drag it
to change it a little bit. And when I do this, you see now I have a second color
which is light gray. And you see I have my heading right here that is
custom designed. This heading, you
see the headline and the sub headline when I drag
them, they go together. I can ungroup them
by clicking here, and now I can drag
each one separately. So this is how you can
add text to your design. And you see the basic
headline that we have added, you can start making changes to this one because sometimes
you will not find. Almost times actually,
you cannot find a text, a custom text that is going
to be good for what you want. So you are going to have to add a basic headline and customize
it and make changes to it. And right now we had a heading. And I can say, maybe I want to change this to we buy houses. So I can simply double
click and change the text. So right now, I made
it we buy houses, but it is black, and it blend
in with our background. So we can either
select it and change the color to white so
that now it is visible. But still, it is not totally as visible as we want it to be, so I will select it
and come to effect. Effect is what
will help you make your text much more
bitter and readable. When I select effect, it is going to often here. We can add a shadow to the text. If I click shadow, you see, we have a shadow. You can add offset
to the shadow. You can change the color of it. Right here, you can change it from white to a different color, the shadow that you have added. If you want to
remove the shadow, you can simply choose none, and the shadow is gone. I like to use for text, most of the time is lift. And when I select lift, I can increase the intensity so that the text is lifted
up from the background. There is a little bit of
shadow behind the text. And you can make some mode. You can choose other effects like outline where you are
going to create an outline, and you can choose a different
colp or the outline. Let's say, we want to add this. So right now we have an
outline. On our text. So this is how you can make total effect changes
to your text. You can simply spend some time, test all of this and see how they work and how they
affect your text. I'm simply going to use lift and increase intensity to 100. Next thing I will do is I'm
going to change the point. If you want to change the point, right here is where you
are going to do that. I can click here
to open the font, and I want to use Mont Serat. So I will simply search
Mont Salat This is it. I will click this drop
down icon to often it, and I will choose
extra bold or maybe black so that it is
totally bold. That is it. You can either search and type and search
for a punt or you can scroll down here and choose from the punt
that Camber has. So right now this is how
our headline is looking. We can drag it and put
it anywhere we want. I want to put it right here. The next thing I
might want to do is maybe add a subheading. So I can simply come
back to my text section. I will come up here. Instead of a heading, I
will add a subheading, and I will write
something like Okay, now I write some subheading. But obviously, it is
black, so it blend in. I'm going to change
it to white so that we can see it and I
will use this arrow. This then when you
hobble over it, you see the curso change, I will click and drag it so that it come into the graphic. It's very good idea
to make sure you are having all your element
perfectly aligned. For example, this headline
is aligned to the center. You see when I drag it, you see I put it perfectly
in the center of the page. You can see one line in the middle when you are
moving with element. So I want to do the
same with the text. But before I do that, I want to change the size
to make it right. I can either use this to
reduce it to size or I can use this minus icon or
plus icon to reduce the size. I want it to be
maybe 35 will do, and then I will click
it to make it center. Okay, now it is center. But one thing it's still
not totally visible. So there is one thing we can do. We can add an effect, which is going to be a
background. I will select it. I will come to effect, and I will scroll down, and I will choose background. So now our text
have a background. What I will do is I'm going to change the background to white. I'm sorry, under effect, I will come down here and I will change the
background to white. And then I will change the
color of the text to black. So we don't have a total black. I'm just going to
add it right here. Okay. So now we have our
text looking like this. I can go back to effect
and I will scroll down. You see there is a round
in the background. I can increase it to 100 or
remove the background at all. I can reduce the spread. I can increase or
decrease the intensity. Again, you can play around
with this to see how it works. But there is another way to have a border to
have a background, I mean behind text, which is a better option. And for this reason, I'm going to change
the ipec lift, increase the intensity to 100. And instead of adding an effect, I'm going to add an element. I will come to the element talve and I will go to
Chef right here. When I click on Chef, I'm going to add this ect angle. I can either add this one or this one with rounded corner, but it doesn't matter I can
add the rounded corner, so I will click to
add it to the page. You see the color is not the color that I
want, so I select it, I come up here and I click here to change
the color to white. And then I'm going to drag
here to increase the size so that it is the exact
size that I want. Okay, I'm going
to move it down a little. Okay, this is good. What I can do is I can add
a corner, a border corner. I will select it. Right
here, you see corners. I will select it and I
will add maybe 20 will do. So it is cornered a little bit. I can remove the effect that I added and I can I can change it also to monseret
and for this one, I can choose semi bold
or maybe bold will do. Okay, I can reduce the size a little So I can select the background and the text and group
them together. I will select it and then hold
ship and select the text, and I will colt group. So now they are
grouped together. When I drag it, I am not going
to mess up the alignment. The next thing I will do
is I might want to add a logo at the top of
this weby houses. So I will select weby houses, hold shipped and
select this one, and then I will drag
them down a little bit, and I'm going to add
a logo at the top. So I'm going to come to upload. And I'm going to click Upload Piles often the
folds in my computer, and I have a logo
sample logo right here. I will select it
and click often. And when it finish uploading, I can click to add it to the
page and I will drag it up, use these corners to
reduce the size of it, and I can center it, make sure the
alignment is right. So right now it
is in the center. So I can take a look at it
and see if I like it or not. If I don't really like
it, I can remove it. And I can find something
else and add up the top, or I can simply select these ones and move
them to the top again. So this is generally how
you can start working with text element and
images you can upload, add on your graphics, and make changes to them. And you will be
using element tab a lot to make your
design better. You see there are so many
tens in the elements tab. You can add shapes,
graphics, frames, a lot of tins, we are going to cover all of these
in more detail. The next lesson, we
are going to look at the ideal dimensions for each social media
platform and how to find the correct dimension or the correct size of graphic for each social media
platform in cama. I'm going to see you
in the next one.
9. Choosing Fonts, Colors, and Layouts that Pop: In this lesson,
I'm going to show you how to choose the colors, the light punt and lay out
to make you a design pop. I'm going to share my skilling
so we can get started. So when it comes to working
with punt and colors, a lot of the times
you are going to be working with your
client brand kit. If you are working
for someone who already have a business, they already have the colors, the point that they want
to use for their brand. I use discolor and the lighter
version of it and white. So if you are creating
a design for me, you have to make sure as a
design pallow this guideline. If we scroll down here, this design totally
doesn't pollow my content guideline,
my brand guideline, I mean, so even though
the design look good, if you make it for me, I
am not going to be able to use it because it doesn't
follow my brand identity. So you have to work with
your color brand identity. And the first thing that
you should understand is how to work with
the light colors. Usually brand colors are anywhere between t
colors to five colors. An example is let me show
you my brand colors. I have let me call an empty page down here
and I can come to element, come to shapes, and
I will add this one. And I can change it is colour. This is my brand colour, my primary brand colour, and I can duplicate it. And I will change the colour
to the light version of it. This is my other brand colour, and I can duplicate it. The other bran colour in
my colour pallet is white. So I'm going to choose white, but I'm going to add a
border a solid border, and I will change the color of the border so that is visible. So these three my brand colors. So if you are at work
with this colors, the first thing you
shall understand is a key important
thing to make sure you always look
at is visibility. Make sure you keep your designs, you keep visibility in your mind when you are doing
graphic design. If you take an example of
let me create another page, if we are creating a design
and the background color is this dark one if we are
going to add a text, what color of text can we add that is going to be visible? We can I we add black, yes, black looks good, but black doesn't
complement this background. If we change it to white, if we change it to white, you see immediately
white looks better, white pop out better
on this background. And if we duplicate it, you can clearly see
the difference. If we change the color
of this one to black, and if we duplicate
this one again, and even if we change it to
the secondary brand color, you see, even though
you can see it, it doesn't really
pop out this one. So in this case, white
is the best option, and we can duplicate
the white again. Since white is the best option, if we want to make this white pop out more, what can we do? We can use effect. We can come to effect
and we can add a lift. If we add maybe 100, that will add a shadow
behind the text. Right now, if you look at
between these two headings, the one at the
bottom pop out more, even though they
are the same color, the one at the top and
the one at the bottom. This is what you shall
keep in mind, always. Keep visibility in your mind when you are working
with graphics, when you are doing
graphic design. The combination of
element that are totally visible to the eye is going to be
your primary goal. The next thing that
you shall keep in mind when working with graphics is alignment,
haben perfect alignment. Let me show you what I mean. Let me delete this and I have
this heading right here. And if I add a subheading. So we have our
subheading right now. One thing you should always keep in mind when working
with alignment is if you have a heading
and a subheading, they shall totally
perfectly align. For example, we have this
heading in a center alignment, if you choose this one and if
this heading is left align, it does not look good. If it is right aligned, it does not look good. If the heading is center, the subheading shall also
be center totally center. If the heading is left align, the subheading shall
also be left aligned. So this is another thing that
you should keep in mind and avoid having element too
close to each other. For example, if we add
this it is way too close, so you have to keep
a perfect balance. And with camber, this
Camber made it easy. Let's say I reduce
it a little bit, and I have this
alignment like this. I have enough space and maybe
they are not aligned well. So right now they are aligned
in the center, totally. And let's say I add a logo. But let me add this. Let's say this is just a normal
element I add. I add an element here. I made it center
and I want to add an arrow I add an arrow. I come down here, I
use this element to change its direction to
point to the other element. What you will notice is if you have multiple
elements on a page, when you start dragging them, you are going to see a number
Ihea You see two aphere, that is the space
between your text. Between the heading
and the subheading, there is 20 pospace. And right now between
the subheading and this element that
I am clicking on, there is 20 pole spacing. So it means there is an even
space between this element. So this is something that can help you keep your
alignment right. Another thing that you
should always keep in mind when you are
making graphics in camber is make sure
if you have a text or any element that is
supposed to be within a box, make sure it fit within the box and it didn't
go out of the box. Let me show you an example. Let's say we add some text. Let me change the color of the text so that it is visible. Let's say we have this text
and we added it in here. You look at it, the text is way too close to the
top of this element. So this doesn't look good. We are either going
to have to increase the size of the element top and the bottom or we can reduce
the spacing of the text. And when we select the text, we can come down here right
here to advance settings, and I'm going to track it down a little so
that you see what I'm doing. We got advanced spacing, and I'm going to decrease
the line spacing. And now you see we
decrease the line. So we have some more spacing
that we can center it. So this is better.
And if you have, maybe the text is a little
bit too long like this. It's not okay to have a
text going out of a box. If you have a box that a text or any element that is
supposed to be inside, it has to pick ppteli within
the center of the element. If it go out of the element, even just a little
bit, it's not good. So this is another thing that
you should keep in mind. The next thing that
I want you to do right now spend some time, try to add element,
text, arrows, anything boxes on your design, to try just to play around
with the alignment and the arrangement of elements so that you get familiar
with how it works. In the next lesson,
I'm going to show you how to create Carousel Post. You can create Carousel
post on Instagram or even YouTube now
accept Carousel post. I'm going to show you how to do that and I will see
you in the next one.
10. Creating Carousel Posts (Multi Slide Designs): So in this lesson,
I'm going to show you how to create carousel post, a post that you have
multiple images that people can scroll through and see the multiple
pictures in one post. I'm going to share my screen
so we can get started. So in order to create
carousel post, we are simply going
to come to create. And right here, we are going
to search for carousel so we can create
Carousel Po Linked In for Pinterest for Instagram, for Pacebook ad, for Twitter
and Twitter video Carousel. And let's say we
are just going to create an Instagram
post carousel. If we click here, we are going to have the right dimension
often in a new tab. So this is our design. The first thing we will do is change the name of the design. Instead of untitled, I'm going
to say Instagram carousel. Click Enter to save the name, and all you need to do to have a carousel is start
creating the first page, add another page, create the second page,
add another page, and create third page, and you can create up to the pages that you
want to create. That is simply how
carousel work. The first page should be the page that you want
people to see first. And the second page is the pages that they
will see when they swerve left or if they scroll depending on how
the pallatform works. And in order to get a template, I am simply going to
delete these extra pages. So I have my one page. I can come to designs. You can hobble
over any design to see the pages that are
inside the design. And remember any design that has this clown is part
of the prohibition. And if you like a design, you can simply click on it, and you see these
are all the pages that are inside this
carousel design. We have po pages, and
you can either add one page to your design or
you can add all the pages. I'm going to click
Apply APO pages. And now we have our P carousel. Post. You see if we scroll, we have our poor carousel post. All we are going to want to
do is start making changes, edit text, remove
background image, or change background image, add change element, go through and make changes to this one and the other ones. If we want to add another page, maybe if we want to have
poor items not three, and this is the last one, we can simply click this
duplicate Button, and we have another page, and we can change this 3-4. And we can make the changes
to the text that we want, and we can duplicate it again so that we have
the same branding. And if this is a thank you page, we can say something like
thank you for reading. And we can change
its size by dragging here so that it
picked perfectly, and we can make some
not and we can say subscribe or like if you like
it, anything that we want. And when we finish, we can
simply download all of these pages the same way that they are right here and
you can see the images, individual images in a z file when you want to make a post, you can simply upload
them in the right order, and you are going to
have your carousel post. So the next thing
that I want you to do right now is spend some time and try try
to find a template, add it to your design. Make some changes, create a
carousel design for yourself, create a carousel
design for yourself with NM, your introduction, and list all the services
that you are offering to client in multiple pages so that you are going
to test your skills based on what I just
showed you in this course. In the next lesson, I'm
going to show you how to create a brand kit in camber. I'm going to see you
in the next one.
11. Ideal Dimensions for Each Platform: In this lesson, I'm going
to show you how to find collected dimension of each social media
platform in cama. I'm going to share my skedin
so we can get started. So right now we are in
the homepage of camber. And remember, if you want to create any social media graphic, almost all the social
media platform haves different dimensions, right? If you want to create Instagram, the dimension is going to
be different than Pacebook. And if you want to create for Twitter for LinkedIn
for YouTube, Po Pinterest is all
going to be different. And what you just need to do is simply click the Create
button right here. And when this pop up often, you can search just the name of the social platform that
you want to work with. Let me make an
example of Pasbook. If I search for Pacebook you see I have all these
dimensions for Facebook. If I want to create a Facebook
post, landscape post, you see this is a
collected dimension, 1,200 by 630 pixel. I can create a square for
Facebook square graphic. I can create Facebook Ca, I can create another
Facebook cover dimension. I can create Facebook
video and Facebook ad. So this is the best way to find the correct dimension of
any social media platform. If I change this to Pinterest, the template, you see, we have all the
options for interest. A. If you want to create a pin, there are two versions of a pin. You can create this
one or the longer one. All of the options
are right here. So all you need to do is search for the platform
and you'll find it here. Avoid creating a design with a manual custom
size if you are not totally sure of the size of the platform that
you are working with. And I'm going to show
you one thing also. Let's say you already
create a design. You already created this
design for Instagram, but you want to change it
into a Pace boook first. You need to do is simply
come right here to pile. Close to pile, you see resize. You see this navigation menu. You click on RSI. This is available only in the probation is
important to note. And you see we
have some options. If you click COL, you are going to see all other
options that you can use to combat this graphic I mean. If you want to change this
to an Instagram story, you can simply choose
this Instagram story and click Copy Resize. Let me instead of this, I can show you another way. If you want to do a
custom size right here, you can add a custom size. You can change it to
maybe 1920. By 1080. And if you click
Copy under the size, you will duplicate this
design in another Tav. But if you do
resize this design, this design is going to
change size, it is dimension. So it is always a good
idea to do copy size. So I'm going to simply
click copy under the size, and it is going to duplicate
this design in a new tav. So you see the design had
been duplicated right here. If I click Open Design, now I can open it in a new tab. So now you see I have
the exact same design. You see the exact
design is what I have, but in a vertical format, and I have all the
pages right here. So all I just need to do
is start making changes, Ij everything to make it a pit. This way, you can create
one design and you can resize it to put multiple
social media platforms. In the next lesson,
I'm going to show you how to choose colors and font that are going to puff and make your
design look good. I'm going to see
you in the next.
12. Creating and Using a Brand Kit (Colors, Fonts, Logos): So in this lesson, I'm
going to show you how to create a brand kit in camber. A brand kit is simply a kit that you are going to
create and add colos, punt logos element, so that when you are
working in a design, you don't have to
write a color code anytime that you want
to use a color code. You don't have to change punt. You don't have to do a
lot of things manually. If you create a brand kit, it is going to make
your work a lot faster. That is going to be
help, especially if you are working
for multiple client. You can create
multiple brand kit, and when you open a design, you start editing, you
start creating graphics. You can simply apply
the brand kit to that design and when you drag a heading and
add it to the page, it is automatically going
to be on brand based on the brand kit and all the colors that you are
going to get access to, you don't have to write
color code manually. I'm going to share my screen
so we can get started. This is a design that we are
playing around with, right. And if we have a brand kit, if we go to brand, we will be able to access the brand kit if we
already create it. And with one click, we can add the brand
colos to this design, and the design is
automatically going to change and be on brand based on the
brand kit that we created. Let me now show you how
to create a brand kit, and I'm going to use a
brand kit in the design so that you are going to
see how it works in action. When you are in the
homepage up camber, we just need to come
to this left side bar and we can come to
brand right here. And when you come to brand, make sure you are on brand
kit and you can scroll down. You can create
multiple brand kit. And right now we have Empty. We don't have any
brand kit created, so I'm going to
click this button, Add New, to create a brand kit. I'm going to name it. Si Umer because I'm creating this
brand kit for myself. Okay, I click Create. I can simply click
X to remove this. The first thing I will
do is I'm going to add my logos so that I will
have access to them, no matter where I am working matters the design
that I'm working with, I can simply click here, and this is a polder that I'm going to pind my logos and add. This is one logo that I have, so I'm going to select it, and this is another logo, but I'm going to
add this one first. And I'm going to
click Add again, Add New upload logos, and I can highlight these two. And I will click often. So now I have my
three logos uploaded. I have the cycle logo. I have the white version and the dark version of the logo. I will scroll down
the brand colors. This is already the
brand colors of the digital wet mastery,
which is my business. Or I can simply
remove it and add everything from scratch so
that you see how it works. I don't know where
this come from. So I'm simply going to click
this X to remove all of these colors that I have
in this brand palette, and I'm going to rename it. From deep blue, I'm
going to change it to dic mer brand colours or brand palette
something like this. I'm going to add my
first brand colour, which is the green. I'm going to add the
colour code right here. I will call it deep green,
something like this. I'm going to add my
second brand colour, and the color code is this. I'm going to add it to
rename it to light green, and I'm going to add white. Okay, so these are
my brand colors. You can add normally brand colors is anywhere between ten colors to six colors, but my brand is simple. I just use these two colors, so I added it and punt
Title punt is Mont Salat. I normally use Montserrat, so I'm going to
choose it right here. I can search for it or just
choose from the drop down, and I normally use
black for the title. And for the soft title, I'm going to click Okay,
for the soft title, I'm going to use also Mont saat And this one I'm going to do bold and Click Seb and heading
is the same as title, so I'm going to do
Monsaat bold or black. Click Seb, Subheading is
the same as soft title, so I'm going to do
Montserrat again. But this one I'm
going to do bolt. Cal Seb section header,
I can forget about it. You can go ahead and add it, but don't need it. Body, I'm going to
add maybe times Yeah, let me just add Times
New Roman and click SEP. And brand voice is just an explanation
of your brand. Like if the brand is friendly
ton or inspirational. If you don't understand
much about brand voice, just Google it or ask HGPT you'll have a better
explanation of it. But generally, something to keep in mind is all of these items, if you are working for clients, the client is going to
provide these items to you, except if you are creating
the brand for the client, if you are doing
branding for client, and if you are doing
branding for client, I'm guessing you are not a
beginner to graphic design. Right, so I'm going
to skip I brand Boys. I don't intend to use
Camber AI writing tool. So Boys is probably not
going to be that helpful. And I can add photos that I'm going to be using regularly. So I'm going to click
here to add photos. I'm going to select all of this. I will add them here and
I'm going to add one more. I'm going to add this one. Okay, so these are the
pictures that I may be using regularly,
so I add them here. If I have any graphics
that I want to add, I can add it, but I
don't have any graphics. If I have any custom icons, I can add them right here, which I also don't have. So that is all I am interested in adding
in this brand kit. And my brand kit is
completed right now. I can simply go back. When I go back, I can come to Hum Tav and I often this
design in a new Tav. In order for you to see
how brand kit works, I'm going to come down here. I will choose this graphic. I will duplicate it so that
you can see the difference. Okay. Then I am in this graphic, I'm going to come to brand, and when I'm in
the brand section, I can simply come up here, brand kit, I will
click dropdown and I'm going to choose this new
brand kit that I created, and I'm going to click
Select Brand kit. And now the brand kit have
been attached to this design. If I go out, I go back
here, I come back. This is my brand kit, and all I need to do to
make this design align with my brand colors is simply
click this Shopper icon. When I click on it, you see
this design has changed all the colors has changed to be aligned with my brand colors. I can click Shopper again
to change the colors. You see it is still on brand. It is still using
all my brand colors. You see if we look at this, this is how it is previously, but this is how it looks now. So automatically, we change this to be align with my brand. We can do the same
with this one. If I select this
one, I do shuffle. You see right now all
the colors has changed. And if I come up
to this one again, we can come down here, I don't know if we
have some headings, but if I selected this, you see I have added a
heading that is monsratblack. So I have added a heading
in my brand colo, and I can come down here, I can see all the photos
that I have added to this brand so that no
matter where I am, I can access all the
relevant graphics that are attached or
relevant to this brand, and I have my logos right here. I can simply select and add any logo that I want
to this design. So this is how easy it is to
create a brand kit camber, and this is how you can use Bandkit to make your
designs easier. And this is going to
be very helpful to you if you are working
for multiple client. You can create multiple
brand kit per client. And when you are creating
graphics for a specific client, you can simply select the brand kit so
that any design you make is going to be totally aligned to
that brand identity.
13. Designing Templates for Clients: So in this lesson, I'm
going to show you how to design template for client. Let me give you an example. If someone hire you to create social media
graphics for them, they might just hire you
for that specific reason. Maybe they want you to create 30 social media graphics
template for them, and you can give them access to the template so that they are going to be
changing graphics, changing titles, changing texts, and they will be
posting the graphics, maybe for a whole year or years. In order to do this, I'm
going to do it as if a real estate agent hire me
to do it for them because, you know, real estate agent they are selling houses, right. So anytime they have a new
house that they want to sell, they want to create
a graphic for that specific house
and promote it. So I'm going to
create the graphic, the template graphic
and send it to this real estate agent so that they have
it as a template. Anytime they have a
new property for sale, they just need to change
the picture of the house, change some text, and the graphic is going to
be ready for them to use. I'm going to share my screen
so we can get started. So in order to get started, I'm going to click Create, and I'm going to search for Pacebook and I'm going
to choose the square. So when I create a square
template like this, they can use it in both
Facebook and Instagram. I'm going to start by
changing the name of the design to real
estate design. Click Enter and the
name have been saved. I can go ahead and
start adding template, searching and start
making changes to them, or I can start
doing it manually. But in this case, I'm just
going to do it manually. So I'm going to come to element and I'm going to search for curve I'm going to choose
this one and drag it off. Okay, this looks good, and next I'm going to
come to Under prams, I'm going to click CO, and I'm going to
find maybe this one. I will put it here,
make it bigger. And next thing I will do, maybe let me start by
adding a background image. I can come to pictures or maybe I can simply
search for house. Instead of primes, I'm
going to come to photos, and I'm going to pin
an image of a house. For the sake of an example, I'm just going to add
a house from here, but they can change
it anytime they want. So I'm going to add it to
the page, right click, and I can set it as background or I can
just send it back. But sending it to background
works in this case. I'm going to change the
color of this item, but I can simply
come to the brand. And I can do shuffle. So I have it in this style, but I'm going to make
this a little bigger, and I will select this
have that I have. I will come to
transparency and I will reduce it transparency to 80. And maybe this prime, I'm going to add a border to it. I'm going to choose solid and
I will increase it to this. And then I'm going to come
to element again underhuse, I'm going to paint
an image of a house. Maybe this one, I will add it. Since this is a prime, I can simply drag a
picture and hob over it, and the prime is
going to be replaced. So next thing I will do is change the
color of this border. So I'm going to select it. I will come to this color and I will choose this light
version of the color. So next thing I will
do is maybe add the picture of the real
estate agent down here. So I'm going to come to since
I don't have the picture, I'm going to pretend they
send me their picture, so I'm going to search for real estate agent in the
Stock portos library. And I can choose maybe
this one. I can do this. And you see the picture
has a background, and we don't want the picture
to have a background. So I'm going to remove the
background using Canvas tool. When I select the picture, I come up here to BG remover. With only one click, I will be able to
remove the background. I will show you in more
detail how to remove a background and refine it
to make it better later. But for now, we remove
this background, so I'm going to increase
the size of the picture to this Okay, this looks good. Next thing I might
want to do is, this is a little too big, so I'm going to reduce it size. Do this. And then I will
add a title at the top. So I'm going to come to text. Add a heading. You see
it is in my brand kit, the one that I created. So I'm going to
increase its size. I will drag it off like this. I will say new house for
sale or just listed. And I'm going to
change it back to black so that it is heavy. Okay. This doesn't
look very good. So what I'm going to do is maybe I'm going
to add it under, I will reduce this list. S. You know, graphic design
as list in my case, a lot of it is trial
and arrow, right? So I'm going to make some more changes
to find what works. And I'm going to increase
the transparency to 100. And this one, I'm going to
change it to color to white, increase it in size. Increase it here and
maybe add an effect, add a lift, and I
can add an arrow. It is sent off effectively so
I can come back to element, and I will search for arrow. I will come to graphics, not Botos, and maybe I will
choose this one, drag it off. Reduce it like this and
maybe reduce it again. Okay. We might want
to add a logo, so I'm going to drag this
to the side a little bit. Oh, I'm going to
make it left align. Now it is left align, and I'm going to
add a logo here. So I will come to maybe brand
and I will add this logo. Just as an example, I will reduce its size drag, reduce it a little more Okay, I might pleit this R. When I
select it, I come up here. No, not there. Here flip. When I click Flip, I'm
going to choose horizontal. And then I am going to use
this make it look like this. Not the best graphic
I have ever created, but this will work
as an example. So what I'm going to show you is when you finish
creating the design, let's say you finish and you are happy with the graphic
that you have here. In order to share this
template with your client, you don't need to add
them to the design, and you don't need to be in their team or
anything like that. What you need to do is give them a link that they can
click and have access to it as a template so that
any change they make is not going to affect the original template
that you have here. In order to do this, you
can come up here to share. You click on it, and
you can scroll down. There is public Blink. This link, if you share it, they can only see the design. They cannot make change to
it and we don't want that. So you can click here, SO and you can click
on Template Link. This is only available
in the probation. So when we click on it, we can click Create
Template Link, and now the link
has been created. If you copy this link and
send it to the client, they can access this
template and they can save it in their
own Camber account. And when they make
a change to it, the change is not going to apect this template
that you have. And when you make a
change here also, it's not going to apect the
template that they have. Provided they already
add it to their account. Let me show you how
it works when you send it to your client
and they click on it. So if you send it to your
client and they click on it, whether in a browser
or anywhere else, as soon as they click on it, they are going to
see it like this. A template created by Sip Umer was shared with you
start designing now. And when I scroll down
and I click Butemplate, so I can simply click
on Often in Editor. So now your client have
access to this template. And let's say I
change the color of this when I change the color
of it to maybe this red, when I check my
original template here, the change is not
going to be affected. The change that the client made is not going
to affect this. So this is how you can create
template and share it with your client and
your client can do whatever they want with the template that you
shared with them. In the next lesson, I'm going
to show you how to keep consistent design
across multiple pages and across multiple
design for client. I'm going to see you
in the next one.
14. Keeping Consistent Style Across Multiple Platforms: So in this lesson, I'm going
to show you how to keep a consistent design across
multiple platforms. If you are working
for someone as a social media manager or
social media content creator, you want to make
sure that you are creating graphics the type of the same looking graphic for all their social
media profiles. And if you create
maybe a post for Instagram and you want to use
the same post in Pinterest, then the sizes are not the same, and you want to make
sure they all align. So let me show you
how you can do that came so this is our
design that we created. Let's say we want to use
this design in pinterest, it's not going to work, and we don't want to have
to copy it pixel by pixel. You can copy it, but there is
an efficient way to do it. The first way to do it is
to resize this design. And we can do that by
coming up here to resize. You click on it, and you can search right here for
the size that you want. Let me search for Pinterest. If we want to create this
size 1,000 by 1,500, we can simply select it and
we can click Copy and resize, not resize this design. So when we click
Copy and resize, it is going to copy our design. Okay, the design
had been copied. I can click here to open it
in a new tab. Okay, great. Now, you see, just like that. The design had been duplicated. Of course, you are
going to have to make some changes like this logo, and this text doesn't align, so you are going to have to
click here, reduce this, and drag it a little
bit and drag this to make them align and maybe change the size of this arrow so that it point where it should and
the picture of the agent, maybe you need to make
it bigger like this. And this one also maybe you need to make it
bigger like this. You do have to make
some adjustment, but you see it doesn't
take much to make it right without having
to do it all over again. And another way to do it to coffee designs into a
different platform, is we can add another page. Or if we even create an
empty page like this, you can start cofeing items from this page to this other page. And all you need to
do is, let's say we want to start by
copying this tin, you select it this element
and uclic Control C, and you come to this other
tab on this page and uclic Control V. And you
see it had been added. All we need to do
is just resize it. And if we resize it and we can come back again and we can
select this Control C, we come here and Control B, it had been fested. So we can simply do this, and we can copy this portal
also Control C and Control B, and we can adjust as a size. And Bground image,
we will select the background image, Control C, and Control B and the
background image is there, the arrow, we can paste it, it is here and you can also
select multiple things. For example, this
text and the logo, I can select this logo and hold shipped and
click on the text. Now they have been selected
so I can click Control C. When I come here and
I click Control V, you see they had been
fested together. And next thing I can do
is make some adjustment, make sure it looks right. So this is how you can create one design and change it into multiple social
media platform sizes without having to do it
manually all over again. And in the next lesson, I'm
going to show you more on how to use layers and
primes in camber. So I'm going to see you there.
15. Using Layers and Frames: So in this lesson, I'm
going to show you how to use layers and
plams in camber. I'm going to share my screen
so we can get started. So we are going to start
with understanding layers. Anything that you add on
a fetch it is on layer. Let me collect one fetch and
let me add multiple items on the fetch so that
you are going to have maybe let me just
duplicate this page. You look at this page,
the first thing that is in the first layer is
the background image. You see the background
image, it is at the back, meaning everything
else is on top of it. If I select everything and
delete everything, right now, we only have the
background image, and it means we only have one layer and this layer
is the background image. If I add an element, this element that I added
is on the second layer, meaning it is on
top of my image. If I add this arrow, right now, the arrow is on top of all the other layers because
the arrow is on top of this other black element and it is on top of the
graphic background image. If we come to text, and I add a text. This text right now is at the top layer because it
is on top of everything. It is on top of this on top of the background
image and everything. So this is very helpful because if we
come off to this design, let me duplicate it again. If this text is behind the
layer of this background, we are not going to
be able to see it. Let's say we add this arrow and the arrow is like this,
let me send this to. So if this arrow is in the back layer and this
graphic is at the top layer, then when we want this graphic to get on top of this image, we are not going to see part of this arrow because it
is in the back layer. If we want it to be visible, we are going to have to
link it to the pront. And if we right click on
it and we choose layer, and we click bring to the front. If we click bring to the front, the arrow is going to be
at the top of everything. Right now it is aligned with this image and it is
at the top of it. It is aligned with this
color, this hard color, and it is on top of it. It's aground image. If you look at the picture
of the agent right now, the hand of the agent
is behind this graphic. It simply mean this graphic
is in the front layer. If we want this agent
hand to be in the front, we can right click on
it and we can choose layer and we can bring
port we do bring forward, it is going to be
in the forward. But let me do this. If we have this, Okay, let me send it back again. Let me just do
this. So right now, this agent is in
the back layer of this and in the front
layer of this arrow. So in order to px this, we are going to
have to move this a little down and we select this arrow because if this agent block this
arrow, we cannot select it. We cannot select the
arrow because this is the entire picture of this
agent and it is in the pront. Going to either have
to send it to back by right clicking and
we send it to back. Now we can select the arrow
because the arrow came to the prontO we can simply
select it and send it to back. And now it is in the back
of all of these items, and we can order them
however we want. And select tins in the right layer and
order things around. So this is how layer works. Everything, any element that
you add is on its own layer, and you have to make
sure things are in the collect layer in
order for them to work. The next thing that I
will show you is primes. Prime is, let me
delete this so that we have more visible Canvas. So this is a frame. A frame is an element that
is just like a photo frame. You can add pictures
inside of them. I will come to element
and let me remove arrow. And if I come down to shapes, if I add this shape, for example, this is
just a normal shape. If I find a graphic, I cannot put a graphic
to replace it. I cannot add a graphic
to replace it. Let me say house. And if I choose this picture, I cannot drag it and add it in this shape because this
is simply just a shape. But if I choose a prime, if I choose a frame like this and we have
prams, I select all. Any shape that I choose under
prime is an empty canvas, empty prime that
I can replace it with an image if I
choose this arrow. As soon as I click an image
and drag it on top of it, the image is going to
replace the empty canvass. If I choose this one, I can select this and
write click on it, and I can do extract
or detach image, and I'm removing the
image from the frame, and I can drag it and place it right here and I
can drag it like this. I can right click and
detach the image, and I can find another one. Let's add this one and when
I click and drag an image, I have one image here and
I can detach this image, and I can drag and
replace it here. Right now, you see
this prime is like a fixture that is ton afart and we have one picture to this side and one picture to another side, and I can doubly click on each image to adjust
its position. Let me delete the
others or let me just detach this and
if I hover over this, prime now have this image. If I want to adjust
its position, I can double click on it and I can change its
position like this. I can drag this
to make it bigger and adjust to make
it fit. I can click. Now this is our prime. This is how you can work with layers and primes in camber. Next thing you should
do is spend some time, go through the primes and find multiple different styles of premes and add images
to them so that you understand more how
primes work and you get a better idea of what kind of primes are even
available in cam. In the next lesson, we
are going to go a little deeper into removing
backgrounds in camber. I'm going to see you
in the next one.
16. Removing Backgrounds: In this lesson, we are
going to go a little deeper into background
removal in Camber. I'm going to share my screen
so we can get started. So one thing initially remember
is removing background in camber is only available
in the pro version. Let me come to upload and
let me add my picture. Let's say I added this picture and I want to use
it in a design, but I want to have the
picture without background. The easiest way to do it if you have the pro
version of camber is simply select the image
and click this BG remover. When I click on it,
the background is going to be removed. Oh, great. Now you see the background
had been removed. The background had been
removed only behind me. And this is to do with the background removal of
Camber it's not very efficient. So in some cases, you
are going to have to use a different tool
to remove background. But in many cases, if you are just removing
background from people, it's going to be easy. And I remove the background, but I'm not totally
happy with it. I want to remove even the decks, and I want to look close
at it if I zoom like this. There might be some places that I might want to
make some change. And in this case, there is nothing to remove
pipectaly except the decks. All I need to do is I can select the graphic, I
will come to edit. And when I come to edit, there are two ways to do this. You see Big remover, I can click this icon in the middle and
settings will often. I can easily restore or
remove another part of it. Let's say I want to restore some part of the graphic,
so I will select this. And when I hole over
it, you see this cycle. This is the size of my brush. I can drag this to
increase the size. And when I do this,
I'm restoring the part that I go that I click
and drag my brush on. I can click Control
Z, of course. Or I can do race. And when I do eras
and I drag my mouse, then I'm going to
delete anything that I go over with my mouse. And this is going to be
a little bit tricky. You are going to have
to zoom in very much. If you want to
really be accurate, you have to zoom very much. And when you zoom, you can
reduce the size of your brush, and you can start
going through and manually adjusting any place
that you want to remove. And here, this is not going
to be fast definitely, but this is the easier
way that I have in Camber to remove an extra stuff
and to be more precise. When I do this, now I
can simply just go ahead and delete the list of
the items on the page. So this is that this
is a first thing. This is the first way
to remove background in Camber if we come back, there is another way
to remove items in Camber and I will add another
page at the same picture, and instead of
clicking Biji remover, I'm going to come to Edit. Instead of BgiRmoer, I'm
going to choose magic eraser. And if I hover over it, I can just click and use
a brush to select things. I don't want to do that,
so I'm going to do X, and I'm going to come back
and magic eraser again. Instead of brush,
I want to click. And when I do
click, I can simply click to choose anything
that I want to erase. Or I can come down here
and choose this one. When I choose this one,
it is going to select the things that I can
delete in the picture. I don't want to do that,
so I will do D select. Instead, I'm going
to go with the click and I can click on this
deck to select it, click on this computer, click on this little side also, and I will do ers. It might take a minute. You see the deck
have been arrest, but not in an efficient way. This is not very efficient
and this is only really helpful if you want to
delete something specific. For example, if I have
I consume this picture, maybe I want to
this might not be the best picture to
do an example with. But let's say I want to
delete this plant and I can choose click
and I can select the plant and I will do
race is going to remove the plant and blend it with the background so that you will not notice
something was there. So you see the plant
had been removed. And even if you zoom, you see it was as
nothing was ever here. So this picture,
this magic eraser was not meant to
remove backgrounds. It was meant to remove
items on a page. If I select this book, I click eras, it is going to remove it
from the background. So it removed the picture, but not very efficient, but it did remove the picture. So this is another way
that you can remove items from your camber from
grapes in camber. And in most cases, if you have a gripe
that is not a person, is not, maybe you have two houses and you want
to remove one house, it is going to be
very challenging. So you might have
to use other tools. But as far as
removing background with people, if it is people, amber is very easy for Camber to detect the people and
detect the background. So that is how it works. And in the next lesson, I'm going to show you how to start using polders in order to
stay organized in Camber. So I'm going to see you there.
17. Working with Canva Folders to Stay Organized: In this lesson, I'm going
to show you how to use ambo folders in order
to stay organized. This is very helpful if you are working for
multiple vehicle. If you are working
for multiple client, then you have designs
for multiple client. So it's very helpful
to organize designs in separate folders
so that when you want to access the
designs of this client, you just need to go to
this folder instead of scrolling through hundreds of designs trying to
paint something. I'm going to share my schedule
so we can get started. So in order to access folders, when we are on the homepage, you just need to come
to this left side bar and click on Project. And under all, this
is where you are going to see all the designs
and polders that you have. Right now, we have some designs. These are some designs that
we previously work with. And these are some
images that I uploaded. So you are going to find
all your items here. And on top of that, you are also going
to pint this polde. When we click on it or even
before we click on it, if you scroll down here, if we have multiple polders, you are going to see them here. But since we don't
have any polder, this is going to be empty. And we are going to
come to the poldes tab, and we are going
to take a look on Adnew and we are going
to choose polder. And I'm going to choose
a name for a powder. Let's say ****'s bond. And we can share it with other people or simply
click on Continue. And right now we have
the folder right here. If I come back to Home tov and we have some
designs here, right? Let's say I want to
move this design, I created it for
specific that client, I can select it and I can
choose this folder icon. I can click on it, and I'm going to
choose the folder. If I have multiple folders, I'm going to see them here. If I come to, I'm going to see all the folders that
I currently have. I can go to my project, and this is a folder
that I created, so I'm going to select it. And I will click on move. And now the design is going
to be moved into that polder. So when I come to project, I'm looking for all the designs that I make for sadic mer, I'm going to find
them in this polder. Right, if I'm in designs, I'm going to see all the
designs that I ever make in camber for everyone,
for any purpose. If I come to images, I will see all the images I uploaded. And if I come to polders, I'm going to see all the
folders that I created. So if I have multiple client, going to have designs
for multiple client or if I'm working
with even one client, but I'm working with the
Pinterest, Instagram, YouTube, I can create multiple
folders for each platform so that I can add each design
in the specific folder. If I hover over it,
even before I open it, you see I have one item, meaning I have one design
inside this folder. If I click on it, I'm going to see all the designs
that I added. For now, this is only design
that I added in this folder. I can click on it, open
it in another Tav, make all the changes
that I want, and it is still going to
be in the next lesson, we are going to look
at the best practices of sending designs to client. So I'm going to see
you in the next one.
18. Best Practices for Sending Designs to Clients: In this lesson, we
are going to go over the best practices of
sending design to client. When you are working
for a client, it's important to
keep this in mind. The client only care
about the final delivery, what you provide
to the client at the last time at the
final version of it. When you are making graphics, it's very hard to create one
graphic at once and you add. You are going to have
to create one design, you don't like it very much, you duplicate, you
make some changes. Let me share my screed so we can have better
understanding. If you are designing this
for client, in most cases, you are not going to only create one page and make everything. You will create one page and
will create another page to test some things and add another page,
test somethings. So maybe this is a final version of the graphic that you
want to send to client, but you have other versions that the client doesn't
need to even see. So the first thing that
you shall determine is the client interested
in only the image? If you are only working
for the client and you are creating graphics for them
on a continuous basis, then they are only going to
be interested in the graphic, the P and G version that
they are going to use. But if you are working for
someone and you are creating template for them and you are
sending them the template, then they are going
to be interested in having an edit
access to this design. And if you are
working in a team, are working in a team account, maybe your client will want to be in the design
together with you. Let's take the first example. If you are creating templates
and sending to client, you remember I previously
showed you this. You can simply go to Share and get a template link
and send it to them. Whatever changes
they made is not going to affect your on design. But if you are working, most of the times you are going
to work for people who will hire you to create the graphics and send
them the graphic. And when you finish
creating the graphic, you can simply go to the
share at the top right here, and instead of generating Link or anything like
that, you can download it. But before you download
and send it to them, if you want their approval, there is another way to do it. You can either get
a public BU Link. If you do this, you click on it. If you click Create Bulink and you can copy this
link and you can send it to the client
and the client will be able to look at it and
give you any feedback. But note that if you
send this Blink, they are going to see all
the pages in this design. Let me go to Incognito window and show you what they will see. When you send that
link to the client, this is what they
are going to see. If they click, they can see all the other designs
that you have. If you have some rough designs, some designs that you
don't want them to see, before you send them a link, make sure you delete them. And they can go ahead and take a look and give
you any feedback. But the better way to do
this is really just send them the actual version
of the graphic. You can download it
and send it to them. You can go to share again
and go to Download, and you can choose a Pile Pmat. This is very important. If you create a graphic,
when you click on it. Most cases, PNG is the best
version to send it to client. So you choose PNG version. If you create PDF, then you can see it here. If you crect a video,
you can choose MPP. But you can choose PNG if
it is a normal graphic, and this is important. I find that if you are creating Instagram
for whatever basion, if you choose the correct size, then you don't want
to worry about this. You can simply leave it as one. You are going to
get a good quality. If you increase it, the size of the graphic is going
to be a lot larger. Maybe if you download it as one, it is going to be
one MB 1 megabyte. But if you increase it, it can reach maybe of the
pipe megabyte. So in most cases, you don't
need to worry about this. And simply you can even
limit the pile size, but this is not
recommended also. It's better to just leave it except if there is a
special reason to do that. If you want to send them
without a background, we can choose
transparent background, which I do not recommend also. And this is very
important to make sure you select the page that
you want to download. Right now, we have
up to three pages, and we only want this one, which is a completed version. So we'll select the dropdown and we will choose
current page page one. We click Done, and I
will click Download. And now the PNG pile is going
to download in my computer. Okay, now it penish I can
often and see how it looks, and this is my graphic. I can simply go ahead and send it to the
client to review it, give me any paidback. If they don't have any
pidback, then we are good. In the next lesson, we are
going to look at how to get client Pidbck and how to
make changes as a light way. I'm going to see you
in the next one.
19. Getting Client Feedback & Making Revisions: In this lesson, we are going
to look at the best practice of getting client pitback
and making revisions. A lot of the times, it's very
hard to create a graphic. The first bison, send it to
client and get an approval. The client is going to say, change this, change that. They are going to give you pitback and you are
going to have to come back and make those
changes that they want. The first thing that you
should keep in mind is sometimes clients are not
sure about what they need. So if you pinish a design, you download it and you send it to client and
the client said, change this text to that, replace this picture
with that picture. They give you all of that
pidback, take their PID backck. But when you go to camber, don't edit the many
design that you have. Instead, duplicate the design. If you have it in page one, you can duplicate it and
take it down to page two. You can make all the changes
that they ask in page two. When you finish, we download the page two and you
send it to them. If they review it
because sometimes a client will give you feedback and rebons when you finish, they will look at it
and they will say, actually, the previous
version is better. Can you send it to me again? So if you edit the original
one that you have, you are going to have to
make more changes except if you already have the image
saved in your computer. So that is why it's
very important. You client when you send
a graphic to client, make sure if they
give you paid back, you do not edit your man design. And one thing also
to keep in mind is this might be relevant
for some people. If you are working for a client and the client didn't pay you, if you have an agreement
with the client, they are only going to
pay you after you finish, or if you are creating sample
for them that if they like, they are going to pay you
to do the work for them, don't finish creating
the design and send them a template link or
send them just the grape. If you are sending
them the graphic, make sure you add
your watermark to it. Let me show you what
watermark means. If this design I create
it for the client, but the client is
not going to pay me until I finish and they like it, this is the agreement
I have with them. I will not send them
a template link because then they
already have access to it and I'm not
going to send them the graphic because they
already have access to it. Will send them the graphic, but I will add a tarmac. And what I'm simply going to
do is I will come to text. I will add a text, and I'm going to make it big
and I will write my name. My name or any name
that I normally use. If I have a logo,
I'm going to add it. Then I'm going to do this. I'm going to make
it big like this so that it is on the graphic
totally on the graphic. I will make it like this white, or I can come right here
and add an outline or maybe lift 100 and I will do this. So if I do this, I can download this graphic
and send it to them. They can clearly see the image. They can clearly see the fiture. I can even change
it to maybe hollow, something like this,
or maybe outline. You can just go ahead
and play around with it and find something
that works. And if you do this,
something like this, you see they can clearly see the graphic. They can see it. They can see everything
in the graphic, but they cannot use it because
obviously they cannot use a graphic in their business with a big name with
a big name on it. So this is a watermark, and this is going to help
you protect your work. If you are working for someone
and they didn't pay you, they will pay you
after you finish. Make sure you add your watermark before you send
them the graphic. These are some best
practices that you can follow in order to
create graphics, get biions, make
changes for client, and send design to client. The next lesson, we are
going to start creating some real world examples
so that you will have a better understanding of the type of
graphics that you can create and as your work sample when you start
looking for a client. So I'm going to see
you in the next one.
20. Instagram Quote Post Design: In this lesson,
I'm going to share my screen and show
you how to design an Instagram post from scratch without even
using a template. This is something I used
to do for a client. Weekly, I designed some
Instagram post I use a OT, something that you say in
a video or in an article, and I create this
kind of Code and I post in their social
media profiles. So you can create something
like this and you can include it in your work
sample and your portfolio. I'm going to share my screen
so we can get started. So since we are creating
an Instagram post, we are going to come to create and we are going to
search for Instagram. I am going to use
the square 11080 by 1080 pixel because you can use that one both on Facebook
and on Instagram. I'm going to start by renaming my design to Instagram code. And the next thing
I'm going to do is I'm going to add a solid colo or maybe I'm going to add a gradient colo I'm
selecting the background. I'm going to come
to Bagraund colo and I'm going to scroll down. And in this gradient colo
I'm going to select one. Let's see if I choose
maybe something like this. Okay. If you want to change
if you want to make a change, let me just open
the template side. If you want to change
a gradient color, you can simply hobble over it and you see
this setting icon. When you click on it, the
setting is going to open, and these are the two colors. You can click on each
one and change it or you can change the direction
of how the color is. But I'm just going to use this one and I'm
going to click here. And the next thing
I will do is I'm going to add a quotation mark. D that element, I'm going to
search for a coat code MAC. And under graphics,
I'm going to see all, and I like this one. So I'm going to add
it to the page. I'm going to drag
it up like this, and then I'm going
to add a text. I come to the text side, I will add a headline, make it big, and now I'm
going to write a coat. I'm going to write a
code that I just like. Okay, so this is a
coat that I like. I am going to pick some
grammar arrow here. Okay. But you see it
is just way too big. So I'm going to
reduce it in size. I will drag it like this. Adjust a position. But what I'm going to do is
I'm going to come to effect, and I'm going to
add a background. I will scroll down and choose background and I will change about ground
colour to white. Or, if this look good,
no white is better. So I choose white or maybe I'm going to
change ground to gray. Let me just add a
gray color here. And I'm going to change
the text to white. And I will change the punt. Let me just use Anton. It might be better
for this design. And I will change it to cafetalize everything
to make it off case. Okay, this looks better. I will reduce the
size like this, then increase it like this. Or maybe I'm going
to change the coat. It is a little too short, so it might not look
exactly like I want, so I'm going to change it
to something like this. And I'm going to just adjust
it so that it looks good. I like this style, and I'm going to adjust this. Maybe I will change the
color of this to the gray, or I'm going to do this again. I will select them both and
move them up a little bit, and then I'm going to come
back to element and search for flames element not text. I will add the cycle
prime and I will drag it down and then I'm going
to come to upload. I'm going to add my fiture. I will drag it and
replace the graphic. The prime I mean I will
center it like this. Okay, this looks better. I will drag it down a little
and I will come to text. I will add my name. Maybe I will just
choose from a template. I will add this, drag it down, and I will write my name here. Okay, I can select the text and my fixture and maybe put
them down like this. Yeah, maybe this looks better. And one thing I'm
going to try is I will duplicate the fig
and I'm going to come to brand and let me shuffle my brand colour
and see how it will be. Okay? So if I want to have
it in my brand identity, it is going to look like this. Okay. This looks a
little bit better, but this one I'm going to
change the color of the text. And the other one
also maybe gray. Okay. This looks better. I might need to add
something in the corner. This corner look a
little too empty, so I'm going to come to element and search for rift paper. And maybe this will do. I'm going to add this one, turn it on like this
and add it to the side. Yeah, this looks better. And one more thing I might
add is a light bulb. I forgot to add L, so I can just scroll down a
little to find a light bulve. Maybe this one will do. Maybe this one will do Okay, let's drag it here and
adjust it this position. Yep. So this looks better. Okay, so this looks better. I can delete this one because
I don't really like it. So this is how you can create
an Instagram post design. The next thing you can
do is spend some time, try multiple items, try element, colors, text, and
try multiple things, and create different
versions of this one also. And the next thing I'm
going to show you is how to create a YouTube tuminal
in the next lesson. So I'm going to see you there.
21. YouTube Thumbnail: This lesson, I'm going
to show you step by step how to create
a YouTube Tumbnel. I'm going to share my screen
so we can get started. The first thing we are
going to do is, of course, we are going to go to create and we are going to search for YouTube Tombel we are going
to choose the first one. And this is the correct
dimension for YouTube tubinel. So I'm going to
change the name of the design to YouTube tubinel and I'm going to get started. I'm going to assume
I am creating this tubinel tutorial on how
to create a YouTube channel. And to get started, I'm going to have I'm going
to need a background. I'm going to need
a screenshot of a YouTube channel and a YouTube
logo and my own fixture. I'm going to start by coming to the element stove and find a background that
is going to work. I'm going to see maybe
or video recording. I'm just going to search for video recording under Photos. I'm going to see
what I can find. So I'm going to
just add this one, and I'm going to write click
and set it as background, and I'm going to come
back to all remove this. I will pin a shep. I will
add this sheaf and I will drag it like this and
cover the entire image. Then I'm going to change
it to color to this one, and I'm going to come to
transparency right here, and I will reduce
its transparency like this to 70 will do. The next thing I'm going to do is I am going to
get a YouTube logo. I'm just going to search
for YouTube logo. On the images, I'm going to
find a nice YouTube logo. Let's see, this one, if it has transparent background so
we don't have to remove. Yes, this one will do, so I'm going to save it. The next thing I'm
going to do is I'm going to get a screenshot
of my channel, so I'm going to just
go to YouTube Okay, I'm going to take a screenshot
of my Channel homepage. Okay, and I'm going to
go back to my design, and I'm going to upload
all my items right here. I'll come to upload
piles, come to downloads. I'm going to upload
all these three items, including my fixture. So I'm going to start by
adding my fixture and I will bring it down and make it big, reduce this size,
and make it big. And of course, I'm going
to remove the background, so I'm going to click here. Okay, background is removed. I'm going to make it a
little bit bigger and make it center, reduce this size. So I'm going to add
the YouTube logo now. Adjust it is
positioned like this, reduce its size and send it to back so that it is in my back, and then I'm going to
add my screenshot. I will drag it like this, reduce its size, make it big, and add a corner
around right here. That ten is good. I'm
going to do this. So I'm going to come to text. I will add a headline,
make it big, and I will write,
create new channel, change the text to white. And I'm going to reduce
its size so that it is on one line and drag it down like this and add a
lift of 100 intensity, and I'm going to come back to element and search
for black pad. And I'm going to find
a nice black pad. Maybe this will do. Let's see. Yes, this is going to work, and I can make it bigger. Looks okay, but I don't really like this
tube logo very much. So let me see if I can
find a better one. Okay, this looks better, so I'm going to download it. Come back to my design, come back to upload and upload my new YouTube
logo right here. I will duplicate this one and replace the one with
the new version. I will make this one a
little bigger like this. And this one also make
it a little bigger and turn it a little like
this and send it to work. Okay. Our tubneel
is looking fine. So if you look at
the first version and the second
version, we can agree. I think the second
version looks better. So this is how you can start creating YouTube tuberals
for your client. You can create, you
can spend time, create multiple YouTube tuberals and add them in your portfolio. In the next lesson, I'm
going to show you how to design a carousel post. So I'm going to see
you in the next one.
22. Instagram Carousel Post: So in this lesson, I'm
going to show you how to design an Instagram
carousel post. Well, carousel works
in multiple platforms, even YouTube and LinkedIn. So if we create
this carousel post, we can resize it and use it in multiple social
media platforms. I'm going to share my skill
so we can get started. So right now we are in the
homepage, and of course, we are going to go to create and we are going to
search for Instagram. And I'm going to create the 1080 by 1080, which is a square. I'm going to start by renaming my design to carousel post. And we are going to start
by adding a background. And for this one, I'm just
going to add a gradient color, and maybe I will just add this one and then
I'm going to turn it into gradient. Okay. This looks better. So I'm going to search
for under element. I'm going to search
for if fifer. This is going to be the
cover for the carousel post. I'm going to use
the same if fier that I previously used.
I think this is one. I will turn it like this, come down here, make it bigger. Like this, and I'm going
to come to upload. I'm going to add my fixture, reduce its size,
then make it bigger, and then remove background. Okay, I'm going to drag
it to the side like this. Okay, I will maybe bring
this to the pront. And under element again, I'm going to maybe just remove the search and I will
come down to shapes. I will add a line. I will
make it sight 90 degree, then up like this, and I will make it maybe white. Then I will come to text and
add a headline and drag it, make it left a line, and the title of
my post may be how to become a graphic designer. And I'm going to
change it to white. Add a lift, 100 and make
it big, like very big. Or maybe it's a little too much, so I'm going to change it
to I'm going to remove this and maybe just let
it become a designer. I might change the point also. The point might be better
if I use Montreal maybe. Yeah, this might be better, but I'm going to use bolt. Or, I'll just change it
to how to design better. Or how to design Gipe. Okay, I am going to
make it big like this, make it up like this. Maybe the background
is a little too light. So I'm going to duplicate this. I will select the
background again, come to the bagraun
colo, select it, and I will add a third colo. And the third colo I'm
going to add 718355 again. Yeah, this might be better, or maybe I will flip it. Let's see if I
flip the gradient. Yep, this looks better. I'm going to make it a
little bigger the text. And this line might be better if I choose a totally
different color, something like an orange. Yes, it looks better, and I'm going to add something down here so that it
is not too empty. I'm going to come to
element and search for pen. And under graphics, I'm going to look for something
that represent design. Maybe something
like this will do. I will make it orange. This is yellow, I think.
So something like this. Yes, orange is better, so I'm going to change
the line also to orange. And I'm going to add my name. Okay. And my last name, I'm going to add it as Scrift. I'm going to come to punt and
I will search for Scrift. Something like this will do. Or maybe this. Yep,
this looks better. So I'm going to add it like
this and I will change it color to this or this,
this looks better. I will grove them together so that I can move them around. And this is good, so I can delete the
one at the top, and this is going to
be my cover fetch. I'm going to add my first page and I can come to gradient. I might change it, or
I might just reduce the second color
and this is better. I'm going to add maybe step one. Bring it up like this, and I'm going to
search P Pen element. Maybe I will use the same one. Yeah, maybe I will use the
same one I use at the top, and I will just make it smaller. Okay, I'm going to make the
text a little bit bigger. I will group them
together and then I'm going to add maybe a border. Let's see what I will find
I search for a border. I can add this one and I can turn it around
like this 180 degree. Yeah, I can do it like this. I will add a text. Left aligned like
this, make it smaller. For t will be better. I'm
going to search for Domi text. I'm just going to
use this as hops. I didn't copy it correctly. I'm going to copy
this one at the top. And I'm going to
make some changes, make the text white, and maybe the fin shall be orange and the
border shall also be orange the text might be maybe it will
be good as it is, and I'm just going to add an
arrow to point to next page. I can add this one. I will drag it down. Put it here and maybe I
shall leave it as black. And at the top right here, I can add this ripped
favor, coffee, and fist maybe I can
leave it just like this, it might be a good idea
to add a background. Maybe I will remove arrow so that I can just
add a chef like this. I will do this, change it
colour to the light version of my brand colour
and send it to back. And increase its size. So this looks better, and all I'm going
to need to do is duplicate it and change this
step one into step two. And I can change it to
step two and change the text and duplicate it again, do step three, and I can create all the pages
that I want to create. So this is how you
can also design carousel post in camber. What you just need
to do right now, we come to the end
of this course. All you just need
to do is spend all the time you need
depending on your on learning capability and keep practicing until you are very confident about
your own skills. Another way that
you can practice your skills is whenever you see a graphic that you
like anywhere if you are scrolling on
YouTube on Instagram, on Facebook, just
save the graphic in your phone and when
you have some time, go into Camber and try
to cofus a graphic. This is going to help you share your skills and create as
many samples as you can. So that it is your
portfolio is going to be impressive to
potential client. So thank you for joining
me in this course, and wishing you all
the best bye for now.
