How Do I Add a Recorded Video to Canva?

Do you want to add a recorded video to your Canva design? It's easier than you think! With just a few simple steps, you can incorporate your own video clips into your Canva creations. Let's dive in and learn how to do it.

Step 1: Log in to Canva

If you haven't already, go to the Canva website and log in to your account. Once you're logged in, you'll have access to all of Canva's amazing design features.

Step 2: Create or Open Your Design

Next, either create a new design from scratch or open an existing design that you want to add the video to. Canva offers a wide range of templates and sizes for various design purposes, so choose the one that best suits your needs.

Step 3: Access the Video Upload Feature

To add your recorded video, look for the "Uploads" tab on the left-hand side of the Canva interface. Click on it, and then click on the "Upload media" button. This will open a file browser window on your computer.

Step 4: Select Your Video File

In the file browser window, navigate to where your recorded video is saved on your computer. Select it and click "Open." Canva will then upload your video file onto their platform.

Step 5: Add Your Video to Your Design

Once the upload is complete, you'll see a thumbnail of your video under the "Uploads" tab. Simply click on it, drag it onto your canvas, and drop it where you want it placed within your design.

Tips:

  • You can resize and reposition your video by clicking on it and using the resizing handles.
  • If you want to adjust the duration of your video, you can do so by clicking on it, selecting the "Duration" option in the toolbar that appears above, and adjusting the start and end points.
  • To mute or unmute your video, click on it and select the "Volume" option in the toolbar. From there, you can toggle the sound on or off.

Step 6: Preview and Export Your Design

Once you're satisfied with how your design looks with the added video, click on the "Preview" button in the top-right corner to see a full preview of your design. Take this opportunity to make any final adjustments.

When you're ready to export your design, click on the "Download" button in the top-right corner. Canva offers various file formats for download, including PNG, JPG, PDF, and more. Choose the format that works best for you and save it to your computer.

Congratulations! You've successfully added a recorded video to your Canva design. Now you can share it with others or use it for any purpose you desire. Happy designing!
