hello hello hello and welcome everybody it is another what's new Wednesday here at canva for anyone that's new my name is Katie and I'm a design educator coming to you from the Austin Texas office where it is really starting to heat up so let me know in the chat if this is your first time to one of these events if if you are returning or if you want to let me know where you're from and what you've been using canva for lately I'll go first my name is Katie I'm from Austin Texas and I've been
using canva lately a lot to make training decks for our customers and our team at canva to show them all the really cool features that we've dropped over the last couple of months I can't wait to read all the creative ways y'all are using canva later you are such a creative bunch I know I'm just going to be so impressed when I go through those comments later on but for now let's talk about some of these features okay again if you are brand new the most popular question I get at these events is will this
be recorded and the answer is yes we will be replaying this on our YouTube channel within the next coming week so keep your eyes peeled for that if I go too fast or if you need to revisit one of these demos cool that will be up on the YouTube so check that out also we have prepared a handy guide for you so go ahead and grab the handbook um if you are watching live our moderators will drop that in the chat and if you are watching on the YouTube at a later date it is in
the description the handbook is packed full of links and tutorial and howto videos and just a lot of great stuff to make sure you know how to recreate everything I'm going to show you in this event so make sure you are grabbing that now that we are all set are you ready to discover some really awesome new features let's dive in but first let's chat a little bit about what might look a little different hot off the Trails of our grand canva create event in May we've given canva a fresh new face we're calling this
our glow up so you might have been one of the lucky few to get a sneak peek of our new look or you still might be waiting for your own glow up but either way don't fret in the handbook we kind of walk through what looks different so make sure to grab that but if your interface looks a little bit different than what I show in My Demo today don't worry all of the features are still accessible to you you just maybe haven't gotten your glow up yet but eventually all of the interfaces will look
like what I'm going to show you today all right so that being said let's get into one of my very favorite features in canva bulk create I feel like not a lot of people know about bulk create and all of the really really awesome ways that you can be streamlining your work and working smarter not harder letting bolt create do the work for you this is an app in the Cana app store that has been there for a while but over the last few months it has gotten a bit of a glow up of its
own it's really so cool I can't wait to show you more imagine having the power to design hundreds of personalized graphics and just a few clicks that's what canvas bulk create app has to offer this intuitive tool is designed to empower users to streamline their design process making it easier than ever to produce multiple versions of a single template efficiently whether you're creating social media post um something to send to print like invitations marketing materials whatever bul create allows you to maintain consistency across all your visuals saving you valuable time and effort heads up that
while this app is available on all types of plans for free users you get 30 days to use it but if you're a paid pro teams education or nonprofit user you will have this feature unlimited so if you are looking to boost your productivity while maintaining a high standard of design canvas bolt create app is your goto solution all right let's take a peek at bolt create its thing okay so here we are in My Demo space and as you can see I have designed some business cards for my team for my pretend brand nourish
and so now I'm going to use bult create to make one for everyone on the team this saves me having to make a copy of this over and over and over updating the information so the first thing I'm going to do is go to apps and search bolt create and there it is so you can either upload data from a CSV or another file type or you can enter data manually and that's what I'm going to do so I'm going to go ahead and toggle over here here is a spreadsheet that I already have prepared
you can also connect your Google drive to canva I believe believe I have a link in the handout with a tutorial for that if that's going to make it easier for you but for me I am just going to highlight what I want copy and paste it into this Doc and then you can see now I also have a space for image well in my business card there was a space where I want to put the head shot of the people in my team so I'm going to go and add this here and so I've
already saved everyone's head shot into my canvas space so see James is the first one I'm going to talk type in James and there's James's head shot right there I'm going to do the same thing for Sarah Danny Frank and Kelly and hit done so now that spreadsheet had different fields so now we want to connect them with the correlating fields on my business card that I want it to populate so name connect data we'll connect it to the name graphic designer not everybody's a graphic designer so connect data connected to job title email address
and now connect data to the image so now we're ready to go hit continue generate these designs and here we are how awesome do those look and how quick was that how much time did it save us and now we can print out our cards or do whatever you want to with them so that is Bolt create and I am confident that you all are going to love this tool and I can't wait to see what y'all start designing next up we have a refreshing update to our AI powered photo editing tools I really think
this update is going to make it so much easier for you to get there and start editing your photos and just making changes and designing a little bit more in so let's learn more over the last year canvas's magic Studio has been helping you elevate your designs and easily edit photos photo editing features in Magic Studio include impressive features like magic eraser magic grab and so on previously with these features you either had to manually brush over what you were wanting to edit but now with the new AI Improvement you can just click what you
want to edit and grab it in just one click making it so much easier and Cleaner Magic studio is a paid feature so this one will be for our Pro and teams users so let's see what it can do okay here we are back in the editor and here I have a photo of two people partying with balloons they look really they look like they're having a lot of fun but let's say we want to make a couple of changes to this image so I'm going to click on the image and go to edit and
right here you can see all the magic Studio options so background remover Magic Eraser magic grab and today the ones we're going to be focusing on with the new click base magic editing is grab and eraser so let me start with eraser now previously if you've ever attended one of these events before or if you've played around with this feature before you know that previously when you wanted to erase something you could use this brush to erase whatever you want to so let me show you what I mean let say we want this balloon gone
and just like that now it's gone so that brush is really great for things that you know you don't need to be so precise with but we've definitely heard people say maybe it's hard to get exactly what you want erased exactly where you want it erased and that's where the click option comes in so let's go back to Magic Eraser and go from brush to click see how the AI the magic studio is doing is Magic and it scans everything that it thinks you might want to remove from the image so now I can just
click that balloon and there you go and now while that balloon that was up in the air wasn't quite so hard since it didn't have anything around it the brush is going to be fine The Click makes it easier but let me show you one that is a little bit more difficult and where the click would really come into place so you see this pink balloon right here if I was brushing over it that's going to be a lot harder to be precise but now we just click erase and now look at that with just
one click that balloon is out of the picture and it looks so clean and crisp like it was never there this C click based editing is really great for eraser and Magic grab so I can't wait to see what you guys design and how this will make your lives a lot easier when getting exactly what you want in your photo now like I said make sure you grab that handbook CU we've got a lot of fun learn and plays baked in so that you can practice these skills on your own again if you're just joining
you can get a link to that in the chat from our moderators or if you're watching later on YouTube you can get a link to the handbook in the description of this video and last but certainly not least we have a brand new feature that I am so so excited about enhanced audio have you ever shot a video and then noticed the glaring distraction that is the background noise perhaps it's the hum of passing traffic or if you're living in a really hot climate in the summer like myself maybe it's a The Buzz of a
really noisy air conditioning drown drowning out your words or the words of the person that has sent you over the video It's Time to Say Goodbye to intrusive background sounds and welcome the clarity of your voice with enhanced voice feature you can create engaging highquality videos with Crystal Clear audio effortlessly whether you're crafting a vlog an Instagram reel recording a meeting ensure your sound is Flawless to keep your audience enthralled this feature is now live and exclusively available to our paid users also I'd like to note for now this feature is for videos of 10
minutes length or less so ideal for shorter video content right now hey why don't we see it in action okay so here we are back in the editor and once again I'm in the demo space for my pretend company and we are running a campaign where we are sharing video testimonials that our customers have sent in telling the world how much they love our products so we have a video from a customer here that they sent in and it's really great content but let's take a listen to what the video sounds like what the user
is saying to receiving my nourish Meal box every week their meals are always delicious and I can only tell that their chefs pay attention and listen to what their customers want I would recommend nourish to any of my friends or family that were looking to invest in a nutritious Meal box that they get every week you will not regret this investment okay lots of background noise in there like I was saying I recorded that in my office where I have a very noisy window unit which in August in Texas I cannot turn off so we
are now going to take that video and fix up the audio let me show you how it is so so easy so I'm just going to click on that video and click on audio and hit enhance voice so let's see what that sounds like I look for Ward to receiving my nourish Meal box every week that is so much cleaner and crisper and easy to hear so I'm going to skip ahead to where I've now taken this video put it into my post that I'm making about the customer testimonial and let's see how that turned
