Transcripts

1. Welcome & Introduction: Hi there. I want to start by welcoming you to this course. My name is eric Umer and I'm going to be your coach throughout this course. This course is designed for complete beginners to graphic design. I'm going to show you how to use Camber to create social media graphics, and this course is perfect for you if you are a social media manager or if you want to start social media management, or if you want to start virtual assistant and you want to offer social media graphic design to client. By the end of this course, you are going to know all the basics of how to use Camber and also you are going to know how to use all the advanced features of Camber so that you will be able to in perfect and good looking graphics for your client's social media account. So if you are ready to get started as a social media graphic designer, jump right into the next lesson. And one thing I'm going to advise you to do is make sure you plow along step by step. Don't just watch the lessons and practice after you finish all the lessons. Try as much as possible to pal along to practice anything that I showed you so that you will not forget anything that you learn because you will learn better when you practice as you go. So thank you again for joining me in this course, and I will see you in the first lesson. 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.
