Steps to make a video edit, insert your logo, add images, and include a video link usingCanva:

1. Create a New Video Design in Canva:

  • Go to Canva.

  • Log in to your account or create a new one.

  • On the homepage, type “Video” in the search bar and select the video template you want to use (or choose "Custom Dimensions" if you want a specific size).

  • Click on the "Create a Design" button.

2. Upload Your Logo:

  • On the left sidebar, click on "Uploads".

  • Click "Upload Files" and choose your logo from your computer.

  • Once uploaded, click on the logo and it will appear in the video editor.

  • Drag and drop your logo to the desired location on the video (e.g., corner of the video for branding).

3. Add Images:

  • On the left sidebar, click on "Elements" or "Uploads" (if you’ve already uploaded images).

  • If you’re adding images from Canva's library, search for the type of image you want (e.g., "nature," "people," etc.), and click to add it.

  • To upload your own image, click "Upload Files", choose the image from your computer, and drag it to your video.

  • Resize and position the image as needed.

4. Insert a Video Link (Text with URL or Hyperlink):

  • If you want to add a clickable video link or a text-based URL, use the Text option.

  • On the left sidebar, click "Text" and choose a text style to add to your video.

  • Type the URL or link you want to share.

  • Position it on the video screen where you want it to appear.

  • (Note: Links added this way are visible in the video, but you can’t make them clickable in the video itself. To share a clickable link, provide it in the video description after uploading to platforms like YouTube or Vimeo.)

5. Edit Your Video:

  • To add or trim video clips, click "Uploads", upload your video file, and drag it to the timeline.

  • You can trim or split the video by selecting it on the timeline and clicking on the scissors icon.

  • Add transitions, effects, and animations by clicking on elements in the timeline and choosing the animation options.

6. Adjust Timing:

  • Click on the elements (images, text, or video) in the timeline.

  • Adjust their timing by dragging the edges of the element to the right or left.

  • This will make them appear longer or shorter within the video.

7. Preview and Finalize Your Video:

  • Once you've added your logo, images, text, and video link, preview the video by clicking the Play button above the timeline.

  • Make any final adjustments if needed.

8. Download or Share Your Video:

  • When you’re satisfied with the result, click on the "Download" button in the top-right corner.

  • Select the video format (MP4 is recommended) and click "Download".

  • You can now upload it to social media platforms, YouTube, or any video-sharing service.

Additional Tips:

  • Adding Transitions: Click between two elements on the timeline to add a transition between them for smooth scene changes.

  • Text Effects: You can add animations to text (e.g., fade-in, slide) by selecting the text and clicking on the animation option at the top.

With Canva’s simple interface, it’s easy to create professional-looking videos with logos, images, and video links.
