How to make a Canva newspaper. Hey guys, welcome back. In this video I'll be showing you guys how
0:06
you can make a newspaper using Canva. So let's get into it. Now, using Canva can be a great way
0:14
for you to get started with presentations, newsletters, logos, and more. However, did
0:20
you know that you can actually build your newspapers with Canva as well? And it's really
0:25
simple and really easy. So let's get into it. Now to get started, simply head on over to canva.com
0:33
and you have to register on Canva to get started. However, registration is completely free and you
0:39
can just sign up with your email address. Once you have signed up, simply go into the search bar
0:45
and you can search for newspaper. And once you search for a newspaper, you will see different
0:50
types of templates available. So you will see there are a lot of different templates available
0:55
for you to build your newspaper using Canva. Mostly I am focusing on building a digital newspaper
1:03
but you can easily print these out and make this a actual newspaper as well. So it really depends on
1:10
how you want to structure your paper. Now you guys can see that Canva has a lot of different
1:15
types of templates. They have some that are heavy on visuals, some that are heavy on text, they have
1:21
you know, a lot of different options available that you can pick out from. So what I'm going to
1:27
do is I am going to pick out a newspaper template that's, you know, that's that has more images and
1:36
has a very nice visual appeal. So I think I like this one over here. So I'm going to click on
1:42
customize this template to get started. Now, once you do that, we're going to zoom in to be able to
1:49
see this entire template. Now, one thing to keep in mind is that you can build these templates
1:54
from scratch. So if I was to show you guys how to build this from scratch, it would be pretty easy
1:59
as well. But replacing the content and these can be easier for most people. So let's say our niche
2:05
is fashion. And this is going to be a website exclusive. Durden's new drop like this. And then
2:15
let's see, this is our newspaper article that we are writing like this. And this is more so the
2:21
structure of an article. So from here, you're going to enter your content and you can delete
2:26
these images and replace them with your own. Now, what happens if you want to build a, you know
2:32
front page of your newspaper, because usually newspapers have a front page. So they have a
2:38
similar template that follows the same aesthetic. And you guys can see they have this one over here
2:45
they have quite a few different ones that you can use. But if you want something from scratch
2:50
so let's say I'll show you guys how to build it from scratch as well. So what I'm going to do is
2:55
I'm going to open up a empty page, this is an A5, A4 size. And then I'm going to search for paper
3:02
And the element section, and then just go into the paper section and select any type of paper
3:08
that you want. This is just to add a little bit of texture to our background like this. I'm just
3:14
going to expand it a little to fit our canvas like this, like so. After I have done that
3:23
what I'm going to do is I'm going to just lock this in place. Then I'm going to enter the title
3:28
of our newspaper. So we're going to go into text and then add a heading. Let's say our newspaper
3:33
is called The Times, or you know, The YouTube Times, like this. And then I'm just going to
3:42
select this and I'm going to capitalize it. And I can change the font as well. And you can even
3:49
enter your logo if you have an actual logo for that. So we're just going to be using simple
3:56
fonts. But if you do have one, just enter your logo. And that is going to be the title of your
4:02
newspaper on the top. Then you're going to go into elements and go into shapes and take a plain line
4:08
over here. Insert one of those and then just expand it. Make sure it's at a zero degree angle
4:14
You don't want this to have an angle. We're just going to expand it with a zero degree angle like
4:21
this. And then you're just going to place it right below your title. Now you can do this in
4:26
other ways as well. You can go into elements and search for the search for box and you're going to
4:33
go into graphics and it's going to show you multiple different styles of boxes and lines
4:38
So we're going to search for royal lines over here and then go into graphics over here and
4:45
it's going to show you multiple different designs you can pick out from. So let's say we have this
4:50
one over here and I'm just going to expand it a little and we're going to add this and I'll take
4:56
the, I'll actually add this to the top and I'll take all our simple little line and let's say I'll
5:03
place that beneath it and then I'll place some other more royal lines beneath it as well. So
5:13
let's say I want to use this one over here. I'll just place it over here and then expand it a
5:18
little like this. And now after that I can start structuring the rest of my newspaper. Let's say I
5:25
have a title image and then I have two columns on the bottom. So what I'm going to do is I'm going
5:32
to go into my images and then I'm just going to insert the image. So I'm just going to go into
5:38
elements and I'm going to search for buildings or New York office like this and I can insert this
5:48
image like so and I'm going to edit the photo so it matches better with our, with our newspaper
5:58
So I'm going to increase the temperature and decrease the brightness to this a little and then
6:04
I'm going to resize this over here like so. I want this to be a bit more narrow. I'm going to do this
6:12
over here like this and we can add the title of our actual first column. So I'm going to add
6:19
is New York in trouble like this and we're going to place that over here and increase the font size
6:29
a little as well. You can place this on top of the image you can also do it on you know in the form
6:36
of a overlay that depends on what your personal style is. I'm going to place it on top and then
6:44
I'm going to change the font as well like this and then I'm going to use the elements and then I'm
6:52
going to add a arrow over here where people would know that the article is going to be on the next
6:59
page and then I'm going to enter some text and add some body text on page two and I'm going to
7:07
write that right beneath this image so people know that this particular article is going to be found
7:13
on page two and then now I'm going to build two different columns so for that I'm going to go back
7:19
into royal lines and elements and we are going to go into the graphics section and in our graphics
7:29
section I want to use another you know line because I want these to be pretty divided I don't want to
7:35
you know make it look like it's mixed up. I think I'm going to go for something a bit more narrow
7:40
yeah I think this looks pretty nice so I'll just use this over here like so and I will resize this
7:49
arrow a bit so it's a bit smaller like this and I'm going to place this to the other direction
7:59
like this and now after that I can go into text and I can insert images for the rest of my column
8:07
so like this and I'm going to go into photos over here and insert a photo like this whatever photos
8:17
you have for your column and I can enter the text down below and for the other one I'm going to do
8:23
it in the opposite direction so taking this image over here resizing it placing it at the bottom
8:33
and then I would write the text on top so whatever is the article text can be inserted here as well
8:41
as here like this so just like that you can build your own newspaper using Canva. I hope you guys
