hi in this video I'm going to show you
0:03
on how you can turn a simple photo into
0:06
a video using cona so uh I have two
0:10
methods you can try uh the first method
0:11
is going to be simple and the second
0:13
method is going to be taking a bit more
0:16
time but the result is going to be
0:18
prettier so before we start I highly
0:20
recommend to enable the thumbnail view
0:22
right here and also enable the duration
0:25
view so we can see the track or the
0:27
duration of the video later and after
0:29
that you can insert the photo into the
0:31
canvas in this example I'm going to
0:33
insert this photo and I'm going to set
0:35
it as a background and I'm going to
0:37
double click and make sure that she is
0:39
100% visible on the frame click done and
0:43
you can add some animation to this
0:45
picture so it's not going to be a simple
0:47
static image that look boring click on
0:50
the background or click in the image and
0:52
click animate and you can apply whatever
0:55
styles that you want to apply to this
0:56
photo there is a drift animation there
0:59
is also a photo flow photo rise the one
1:02
that I think is the most popular is
1:04
photo Zoom it's kind of zooming in or
1:06
zooming out the photo and you can uh you
1:09
can apply the animation on enter exit or
1:13
or both enter and exit you can play
1:15
around with scale the in and out Etc so
1:18
I'm not going to change anything here I
1:20
just want to show you uh what animation
1:21
you can apply and when you are done you
1:24
can click share and you can click
1:25
download make sure to select the file TP
1:28
as MP4 and and you can adjust the
1:30
resolution if you want and then click
1:32
download but if you see this message
1:35
which uh I think if you are downloading
1:37
a premium footage and you don't have uh
1:41
anything else Cana is not going to allow
1:44
you because they don't want to use they
1:46
don't want you to use canva as a stock
1:48
image website so if you see this message
1:51
I do recommend adding some element it
1:53
could be a simple shape like this and
1:55
then you can reduce the transparency to
1:57
zero so it's not visible and try
2:00
downloading this video
2:02
again okay and it should be working
2:06
now oh by the way I forgot to mention
2:08
something about this track so this is
2:10
the duration of this photo you as you
2:12
can see it is 5 Second and of course you
2:14
can reduce it you can increase it it's
2:17
totally up to you but in this case I'm
2:19
I'm just sticking with the 5sec duration
2:22
and yeah the photo is now being
2:24
downloaded and I'm going to show you
2:26
later and we are going to compare that
2:28
with the uh with the second method
2:30
later all right the video has been
2:33
downloaded and this is the result it's
2:36
simple it's really good it's attractive
2:39
it's uh simple and this is the kind of
2:42
Animation that you probably have seen a
2:44
lot of times on YouTube videos so that
2:47
was the first method let's move on to
2:49
the second method I'm going to remove
2:51
the background I'm going to remove
2:53
everything just start with something
2:55
empty and I'm going to insert this
2:57
picture again but this time around I'm
3:00
going to prize the photo I want to make
3:03
it slightly bigger uh slightly bigger
3:05
than the original frame size and after
3:08
that I want to make sure I don't have
3:10
any animation here so I want to remove
3:12
all the animation from this from this
3:15
scene and after that I'm going to click
3:18
edit click magic grap I'm going to
3:21
select this one to be separated from the
3:23
background it will make it easy to
3:24
create the kind of Animation that you we
3:27
want to apply to this photo so uh this
3:30
animation is called Parallax effect and
3:33
it's kind of giving a 3D look to the
3:35
picture even though this is a 2D image
3:38
but parallx effect gives you that unique
3:41
3D look or I think we often call it
3:44
2.5d so as you can see the uh woman is
3:47
now separated from the background which
3:49
is exactly the something that we want
3:52
and now click on the picture on the
3:54
subject the photo click animation and I
3:57
don't want to apply this we want to
3:59
create our own animation so click create
4:01
an
4:02
animation and I'm going to press and
4:04
hold the shift key on the keyboard I'm
4:06
going to click this woman and I'm going
4:08
to drag her to the
4:11
right like that the animation is not
4:14
smooth but that's okay because we can
4:16
change the movement styles to steady and
4:19
I'm going to reduce the speed to zero
4:21
not actually not zero but very very
4:23
close to zero and after that I'm going
4:26
to do the same for the background I'm
4:28
going to click sorry press and hold the
4:30
shift key click and then drag it to the
4:33
left so the woman was dragging to the
4:35
right and the background is to the left
4:38
remember it has to be the
4:40
opposite
4:42
okay something like that and I'm going
4:45
to reduce the speed to near zero and
4:48
keep it steady click done and this is
4:52
the
4:55
result as you can see there's kind of a
4:57
movement there's a subtle movement of
5:00
the picture and I think it looks really
5:02
good so I'm going to download this
5:04
picture or this video in this case and
5:08
we're going to compare it with the first
5:14
method and okay we got this file and
5:17
this is the result so this is the second
5:19
method now as you can see it is simple
5:21
but it is more dynamic because there are
5:24
multiple elements moving there is this
5:27
woman and also there is the background
5:29
while the first method is a lot simpler
5:31
it's just the whole thing is moving
5:34
together so what do you think what do
5:36
you think is uh the best style in your
5:38
opinion so anyway that's uh how you can
5:41
turn a simple photo into a moving video
5:45
