In this video, I'm going to share 11 Canva tips and tricks that you probably don't know yet
Today I'm going to share three new apps and hidden tools that are going to help you come
up with more creative designs and animations and will save you lots of time. Make sure you
stay until the end so you don't miss any of them and if you are ready for this tutorial
let's go to my computer. Tip number one, the Speed Paint app. With this app, you can create these kind of animations
completely free. This is pretty awesome because before this app existed, we had to spend a lot
of time trying to create these animations or some other people paid for expensive softwares to be
able to recreate these kind of animations. So let me show you how to find it inside Canva and how
to find it inside Canva and how it works. Go to Canva.com and open the Apps tab and from here
search for Speed Paint. I'm going to select the first option that we see here and this is the app
that is going to help us convert any image into a speed drawing video. Click here. This is going
to open this little window that is going to give you access to the app in an existing design or
use in a new design. I'm going to use a new design and then I'm going to use Instagram post
This is going to open the editor and it's going to open the app at the same time. As you can see
I didn't have to create any new account on the Speed Paint app and I'm able to use the app
instantly and also this app is available for free. I'm using a Canva free account at the moment and
as you can see, I'm able to access the app and I will be able to create an animation. Okay, from
here, what you are going to do is to upload an image, the image that you want to animate into
a speed painting video. So you can click on this video to choose your file. For this animation
I'm going to use our logo. So this is the PNG that I'm going to use here. I'm going to click open
We can see an image previewing here and then we can select the overall smoothness of our animation
It can be either 30 frames per second, 60 or 120. You also have different options of duration. So you
can open this drop down and you can create an animation from 1 to 20 seconds. I think I'm going
to go for 5 seconds. You can also select the color fill duration. So you can select no color fill or
you can go from 3 seconds to 15. I'm going to choose the first option so you can understand
what this means. So 0 seconds. You can select a background color from here. You can add a
sketching hand effect or a fade out effect. I'm going to go for the hand effect. I really like
this animation style where we see the hand painting. So I really want this one. I'm selecting
this box and then we just need to click animate image. The app took two minutes to be able to
generate this animation. So let's take a look. To me, this animation looks pretty, pretty cute
and I can see us using this animation on our content. So let me know what do you think about
this app. Also, I'm going to leave this option right here, this video or this animation that
we just created. Remember that this one doesn't have any color because we selected no color fill
But this time let's go for 3 seconds and I'm going to generate image again. But this time I'm also
going to deselect the sketching hand so we won't see the hand painting and I'm going to add a fade
out effect. I'm going to click animate image and I'll see you once the animation is ready
We have the second animation ready. Remember that in this one we won't see the hand effect
and also we will see a fade out effect. We also inserted the color fill options
So let's see how different it is from the first one. I really like this option as well. The only thing that got me thinking is that the background is
black and I have selected white. But overall the animation looks amazing and I really like that
after a couple of seconds we start seeing the colors on the logo and we end up having the logo
exactly as the one that we uploaded to the app. I really like both of these animations but I tend
to like better the first one, the one with the sketching hand effect. Let me know in the comments
which one you like best, the one with the hand
