free using Kinva. So the first thing that you need to do is you're going to go to Kenva.com
0:35
If you're not familiar with it, it's a software that allows us to edit videos, photos
0:40
we can create logos and much more. And unlike other softwaes, it's actually really easy to use
0:46
and is beginner's friendly. You can get started for free with Kinva.com. All you need to do is just

sign up with your Google account or you can use your email address. So after the initial sign up
0:58
or sign into your Canva, this is where you will land. Now you can see we have a bunch of other options on Kenva to go for it
1:05
But what we're going to do is we're going to actually just go in the search bar here and we can search for reels
1:12
There you go. We have Instagram Reels. So it's going to be 180 by 1920 or you can actually go with a mobile video that will also work as a reel
1:22
So it will take us to Instagram Reels video templates that are available on Kenva
1:28
All right. So you can see we have a bunch of different templates available. And you can see these are all very cool templates
1:35
We have the text. And then we have different types. We have like this type or video
1:40
Now it totally depends on what kind of real you wanted to create
1:45
So you can see we have this one, which is like to show the outfit. This one actually looks pretty cool
1:50
And then we have, you know, other templates. We have this one here to show the outfits
1:55
If you want to even create real ads, you can do that. Keep in mind, reel is going to be a very short video, a maximum 60 seconds
2:03
Okay, so we have this one as well that you can film something
2:07
And then we have this one. Okay, so we just need to select any reel from here
2:11
What I will do is I'm actually going to go with this style here, which looks super cool
2:16
And it's going to be like a really, you know, good way to spice up your reels
2:22
So we have others as well for instance this one which is like get dressed with me and it has like this template or all these types of thing And then we have this one here So we go with this one that features five videos in one
2:36
Click on customize this template. So here we have our video. I'll actually zoom in a little bit like this
2:43
So here we have our video, which is the template and it's a 14.6 second video
2:49
At this side of the screen, you'll be able to find basic options on Kenva. We have design elements
2:53
upload text and more. At the top, we have animate, we have background color position, and, you know, other options
3:01
So let's customize it. The first thing that we need to do is we're going to change the background
3:06
So in case of this template that we got, we have a video in the background
3:11
And then we have four other videos that are added here. And at the bottom, they have also added our, you know, Instagram handle, which is actually
3:18
a pretty good thing. So for that, you will actually have to go to the upload section
3:22
go to the upload and upload your videos or images that you want to add to your reel
3:29
So this is where I'll upload a few of the videos. We can also use different, you know, copyright-free videos and footage from Kenba
3:37
You can go to the elements and search in the search bar here. So what I'll do is I'll upload five of the videos
3:43
We need five for this. So I'll upload five videos here. So once you have selected any of the video or uploaded, it's a simple drag and drop
3:51
So you'll drag and drop. So you'll drag a video and then you can drop it in any of the layouts that are given
3:56
For instance, this one and it will be added in that layout. We can even add a video in the background this way
4:02
So this is how it works and we have to add like four videos in this template and you can see this way it looks like
4:08
If you want to change it a little bit, you can. For instance, there are like four videos
4:12
If I wanted to add just one, then I can do that too
4:16
We can get rid of the frame as well that is given here and these different things
4:20
Let's actually go with one. So what you will do is you'll get rid of the other elements that we have
4:26
It's very easy to customize a template. And there you go. Now we have this cool way of adding a video on a video background like so
4:35
You can see. And I can add it here or I can place it here like this
4:40
Then at the bottom we have a text and we can of course customize the text as well
4:45
You can backspace and then we're going to add at and add your Instagram handle
4:50
So this is actually one of the ways to customize a reel on Kenba You can customize any template you want to Let actually create another one from the scratch and that is going to be a text reel For instance these cool types of reels that are trending
5:06
nowadays with the text. So we can even create that with Kenva. Even if here in this reel, I wanted to
5:12
add the text. So what you will do is let me actually, you know, create one single video here. Like so
5:19
Now we have this five second video. We can even, you know, manage the time frame
5:24
from here. So we have this video and then I'm going to add another one in the timeline here
5:29
which is as a second scene and we'll actually trim it down to a few seconds like so
5:35
And now you can see we have these two videos and these will be added. We need to add a transition
5:42
in between. So what we'll do is we'll click on add transition. So there are different types of
5:46
transitions that you will be able to add. So we have like this dissolve, slide, circle, color wipe
5:52
line wipe, move. Okay. So this one actually looks really good. And then we also have the flow one, stack and chop
6:01
Okay, so let's go with this one and it will be added. We can even select the duration of our transition that we will be adding
6:09
So you can see we added this very cool transition here, which is this one, which is match and move, which looks really good
6:17
So the transition has been added. The footage is added. You can add multiple footage in one
6:22
Then what we can do is we can go to the elements and we can actually work with a bunch of different elements to add to our reels
6:30
For instance, I can go to the stickers section and within our stickers. You can see we have these arrows, we have these different elements, we have these food stickers, shape stickers, emojis, then we have like confetti
6:43
We have these social media stickers for like and follow. Then we got these basic ones
6:48
So what I will do is I'll simply now go to the table
6:52
text. Go to the text here and you can see we have added title, different types of text. I'll go with
6:58
the subheading and let's say that I wanted to add a word here. Okay. So I just want to go with the word
7:05
OTD and we'll make it bold and we'll actually make it bigger. Okay. So you can see this is the text
7:12
and I'll place it at the top. Let's customize it and for that we're going to go to the font section
7:18
So within our phones we have a bunch of cool fonts to go for So I going to play around a little bit for our video Okay this one actually looks really good And we can even change the color of the text And I going to go with the yellow text actually
7:34
We can even add a background color to a text if we want to
7:39
Okay, let's go with the yellow one. Perfect. So I can animate my text a little bit
7:44
If I want to, I can even, you know, change the position, add effects to it
7:48
We can add a background. We can make it transparent. However we like
7:53
So what I'll do is I'll actually click on the text, click on these three dots, and I'll copy this one
8:00
And we're going to paste it to, you know, the same position in our scene
8:04
And what we'll do is we'll click on paste and it will be added here
8:08
So this is the same position that we had on our first scene. Now, let's actually play our reel and see what it looks like
8:15
And there you go. The transition is so smooth, you guys, you can see
8:20
And we have text. So this is how it works. We can even add a lot of text if we want to
8:25
So the next step is going to be adding our audio. So for that, we're going to go to the audio section here and choose an audio from here
8:33
Or we can upload the video and audio. You can even download this like this way without the audio and then add the audio from your Instagram
8:41
That's how it works, right? And we can download these reels in, you know, high quality
8:47
You can see if I play the reel for you guys. Again, this is our first footage. I can add multiple footage this way and the transitions are smooth on Kenba
8:58
And we can actually do a lot with it. Even if I take you to the element section here, you'll be able to add a bunch of different elements
9:06
Let's say I wanted to add this, you know, Butterfly. So I can like this. And even add different animation stickers
9:14
For instance, this one. There you go. And it will be added. So this is how it works. Once your reel is
9:19
done what you will do is you'll click on the share option at the top and click on download and
9:25
before video download and the video will be downloaded now you can add the sound on kenva if you want
9:31
or you'll just add the sound from instagram and your reel is ready which looks really cool
9:37
is high quality and you're using a free tool to edit with a lot of different options available
9:44
