Course Description

Canva Video Editing for Beginners: Zero to Hero is a free online course in Design and Creative Arts that helps you go from opening the Canva video editor to exporting polished videos ready for social media, presentations, and marketing.

You will get comfortable with the interface and workflow, then learn how to bring in footage and assets, organize them cleanly, and make precise edits like trimming, splitting, cropping, resizing, rotating, repositioning, and flipping clips. You will also explore creative look and feel controls such as black and white, filters, adjustments, transparency, and canvas color so your videos match your brand or style.

Audio is covered from the basics to practical finishing touches, including adding background music, adjusting volume, muting, separating audio from video, and creating smooth fade ins and fade outs. To elevate pacing and storytelling, you will work with speed changes for fast forward and slow motion, and build engaging sequences using a range of transitions and fade effects.

Text and motion are a major focus, showing you how to add and customize text and create attention grabbing animations and openers that feel modern and professional. You will also learn layout skills that improve visual consistency, using tools for precise alignment, layer arrangement, rulers, and style reuse, plus productivity features like find and replace text and performance tips to keep editing smooth.

Finally, you will export confidently, including options like exporting as a GIF, so you can publish in the right format for your platform. By the end, you will be able to assemble clean edits, add polish, and deliver a finished Canva video that looks intentional and well designed.
