0:02
Hey guys, welcome back. In this video, I'll be showing you guys how you can get started with building posters in Canva
0:10
So let's get into it. Now, Canva is one of the most popularly used platforms out there right now
0:17
and it's popular for a reason. Canva allows you to build such amazing designs in a few different clicks
0:24
It's available for free, and they sign up is absolutely free as well
0:28
Plus, Canva has also integrated AI-based features. So with those AI-based features, you can really elevate your designs
0:35
Now, let's get started with designing on Canva. So to get started, simply head on over to Canva.com and log into your account
0:42
Once you have logged into your account, you can search for poster over here
0:46
to see any of the templates that are available for posters. Now, once you take a look at some of the basic poster templates
0:54
you can choose to filter out the ones that you like by the filters on the top
0:58
You can choose the media style, the category that you want, and the particular filters of subject as well as event
1:05
Now, let's say I'm going to go into all filters, and I want the templates to be vintage, and I'm going to click on apply over here
1:14
Now, I really like this food-based template. It's a really, like, nice template
1:18
There's this one over here as well. There's this poster. So let's say I want to build a poster for my new web series or my new social media
1:28
platform campaign. So let's say I'm campaigning for a new product and I want to use this one
1:33
So I'm going to click on use this template and you will see a pro icon. So if it has a pro
1:39
icon, it means it's only available on the paid version of Canva. However, you will see all of
1:44
these templates are available for free. So you can just search for a free template and set like
1:49
this one is available for free. So you can really find a similar appearance in the free templates
1:54
as well. Now, once you open up the poster template, you can get started with the design of your
2:00
template. So you can click on any of the text boxes to insert your own text. So let's say this is going
2:07
to be Maraki, Volume 1, let's say Rose, Prince. Now, obviously, my particular text is really long
2:16
So I have rows and then prints Now this is way longer than the text that they have used So what I will do is I will extend the widget like this And then I going to resize it so it fits again
2:30
Once I've done that, I can click on the text and just make sure it's centered. Once this has been centered, what I am going to do is I'm going to obviously click on the preexisting items
2:41
So we have the bloom over here. And we're just going to delete all of those
2:46
and what we can do, or you can just leave one out and rewrite your particular item
2:52
So we have rose prints that we might be launching in our new collection
2:56
I can just resize it to the same font. So I'm going to make both of these 84 size, 84, like this
3:04
Now, once this is 84, I can click on the second one as well and choose that to be 84 like this
3:11
And now I'm going to place it in the back and then just do command C and command
3:16
and v and just place them all together like this now you might say this is a really bad formatting
3:22
obviously this is really bad formatting we are going to fix that so we can actually hold these together
3:28
we can click on shift and then just hold these together and then what you're going to do on the right
3:33
is click on space evenly and click on tidy up this will automatically tidy up all of your elements
3:39
and now from here i can place my product obviously this is not my product so i'm going to go into elements
3:45
or going to go into uploads and upload my own product image
3:49
So let's say that this is our new product. So this is our image that we want to use like this
3:58
Now, this is not actually our image. I'm going to use a product image instead, Rose clothing
4:03
And then I'll just go into photos. Let's search for model like this or clothing like this
4:12
And I'll find a appropriate image. So let's say this is the image I want to use
4:17
Now, once I have taken my image, I want the image to be at the forefront, and I want to remove the background
4:22
So first off, I'm going to click on the image, and what you can do is you can just click on your entire frame, and then you can go into the layer section, or you can just click on the image, and then click on layer, click on bring to front, because you want this particular layer to be on the front
4:38
So click on layer you can just click on show all layers and then just bring this to the front of your canvas So I can bring it to the front like this Now I want this to actually run through some of the text and some of the text should be visible
4:56
I'm going to click on the photo. You can click on edit photo from the top left to begin editing your photo
5:01
Now I'm going to be using the background remover to remove the background from our image
5:06
Once we've done that, we are going to click on, let's say I want the rose print
5:10
to appear in front of the person over here. Or you can even do a really dynamic effect
5:16
And if you want to do that, I'll use an example. So I can delete some of these now
5:21
What I can do is I can place it right behind the head
5:25
And let's say I want to do, or instead of the text, I'll do something else
5:30
Let's say I want to use a hat like this. Or maybe, you know, a rose
5:35
I'll actually use a rose. And I'll take any illustration from here
5:39
So I'll just take this one. Now, once I have my illustration
5:43
I'm going to resize the illustration. Now, what I really want is that for this to be behind some of the, you know
5:52
person's body and ahead of the hair section. So I'm going to place this like this
5:58
So it, you know, is like a really big rose. And then I'm going to do, what I'm going to do is I'm going to click on layer
6:04
click on send backward. Now, without clicking on anything else, do command C
6:09
then command v place it right above the initial placement of your rows and don't click on any of the
6:16
circular icons click on the longitudinal icons and then you can move it a little like this and what you're
6:24
basically doing is that you are cropping the image to a certain extent like this so whatever is the
6:31
structuring that you want let's say i want this to be you know like a really creative little appearance like
6:37
this and now you have you know the person's face on one side or you can do this on the body as well
6:43
let's say I want this person to be half encapsulated in the rose so I can just increase the size of
6:49
the rose place it right behind her click on command c command v place it right over here crop it till
6:56
it's half and now we have this you know interesting image appearance now this is totally up to you
7:02
