How Do You Make an Animated Flyer in Canva?

Last updated on September 27, 2022 @ 12:23 pm

The process of creating an animated flyer in Canva is simple and straightforward. First, users must create an account and sign in. Once logged in, users can select the “Create a design” option from the homepage.

Next, users can choose to start from scratch or select a template from the library. For this tutorial, we will start from scratch. On the next screen, users can select the dimensions for their design. For a standard flyer, we recommend 8.5 inches by 11 inches. Users can also select the “Custom” option to input their own dimensions.

Once the dimensions are selected, users will be taken to the Canva editor. The editor is a blank canvas where users can begin designing their flyer.

To add text, users can click on the “Text” tab on the left-hand side of the screen and then select the “Add Heading” or “Add Subheading” options. For this flyer, we will add a heading and two subheadings.

PRO TIP: This note is to warn you about the risks of using Canva to make an animated flyer. While Canva is a great tool for creating static flyers, it is not designed for animation. This can lead to problems with your flyer, such as it not looking right when it is played back, or worse, not playing back at all. If you are set on using Canva to make an animated flyer, we recommend that you use a free trial of the software first to test it out and make sure it works for you.

After the text has been added, users can style it using the options in the toolbar that appears when the text box is clicked on. To add images, users can click on the “Uploads” tab on the left-hand side of the screen and then select the “Upload your own images” option. Once the images are uploaded, they can be dragged and dropped into place on the design.

To add animations, users can click on the “Animate” tab on the left-hand side of the screen. From here, users can select which object they would like to animate and what type of animation they would like to use. For this flyer, we will animate both images and text. Once everything is in place, users can click on the “Download” button in the top-right corner of the screen to save their design as a PNG or JPEG file.

Creating an animated flyer in Canva is simple and easy to do! Follow these steps and you’ll have your very own animated flyer in no time!
