Woohoo!! (I wish I could respond with a gif here) 🎉🎉

[@juanarteaga9293]

YES

[@Da617H]

Louise Henry yes 🙌🏾

[@brendanlo249]

Yes, is there a way to change the amount of time the animation runs in the current version?

[@JermaineGordon]

Had to come by and give you some love - Simple and effective ❤️💕

[@diazem99]

Hi! Great Video, thank you! If Giphy, the Gif/Sticker needs to have a transparent background.. is there a way to do that when you save your gif in canva? Thanks so much!

[@hcc7691]

Thank you! I was wondering how to save gifs with a transparent background. I’d liketo use dome stickers in canva. Thanks!

[@zomerzoen7325]

Hi, great video. I don't have the option Animated GIF/Movie. Where can I find it?

[@JujuGurgel]

When downloaded as a gif will the background be transparent ?

[@Jessesgirl0307]

Hey Louise, is there to make one on your phone? I know with technology since you made this, there may be some advances. Thanks for you help. Trying to make one asap.

[@louisehenry]

Hey there! Canva actually has an app - so you should be able to accomplish this on your phone using the app 🙌

[@joannes.4845]

Thank you! So easy!!!

[@louisehenry]

Woohoo! I'm so glad to hear it!!

[@ernaehrungmagischeinfach]

Thanks a lot for the Video! How did you create the picture in which you are in the tv? And how did you cut yourself out for it?

[@Remmorii]

Hey! How do you create that Instagram plugin at the beginning of your videos?

[@ThisPixieCreates]

Thank you so much Louise! Your tutorial was really helpful. :)

[@louisehenry]

Yay!! I'm so glad it was helpful 💕

[@LiZrd.03]

I wish I had your wall pattern, wallpaper, whatever it is! I LOVE it! Could you give me info on it? Please😁

[@louisehenry]

Isn't it the cutest?! Unfortunately I don't have the information on what it is or where it's from 🥺 It was at an old co-working space I used to have meetings at! So sorry!

[@Kelsea_Donna]

What can you recommend though for doing those slow motion GIFS that are realistic?

[@louisehenry]

Hey Kelsea! Hmm, I'm not sure what you mean here - can you clarify for me what you mean? 🙂

[@Kelsea_Donna]

@@louisehenry I mean the ones that are a bit like a real video, but more slow motion 🙂

[@tarunnanwani]

Your videos are wonderful. Keep up 👍 the wonderful work.

[@louisehenry]

Woohoo! I'm so glad to hear you enjoyed them 🙌

[@ნინოკაპანაძე-ს6ჯ]

This is really helpful thanks

[@louisehenry]

You're welcome! 😊

[@jeremivanov3134]

Has this feature been removed from Canva? Then, how to use it in the current edition of Canva? Thanks before

[@louisehenry]

Hey! It hasn't been removed 🙌 Now you will animate each element instead (you can click on an element, or text, to have this option) and then download as a movie! This will create a GIF For you 🙂

[@ClosetDelights]

WOOWEE! Thanks for another great video Louise! I would love to create some Gifs.

[@louisehenry]

❤️❤️ thank you for all your support!! You definitely should 😀

[@lodelhq7529]

I have a question...this video is really helpful but when i download the movie it's a 14 second movie and the slides dont start for the first 6-7 seconds even though i set each slide to 1 second...any suggestions?

[@jamilgotcher5456]

Have you ever seen those grids of stills (photos) that are animated with a photo that changes into another photo, not to make an animation of the same photo but a completely different photo, and there's not transparency as it changes, it's not a morphing effect, it just changes, no fancy transitioning effects. I'm trying to figure out how to make that with Adobe Creative Cloud CC because I don't want to pay for another subscription for something. Zara had this grid of images on their website one time and it looked so cool.

[@sandisyd]

You are my angel. Glad I came across your channel. I like your website layout!! I am making my own now and would love to have some input from you or if you can recommend someone to put some life to my web design.

[@andreayearsley570]

I did this but it said the file size was too large for facebook (even though I used the facebook template) I posted it to see what would happen and it only showed the background - not the photo and text.......advice please!

[@bettyescookingchannel]

Thank you for sharing how to create a Gif Canva.

[@greetjehendriks1748]

Hi there, can i make a gif in Canva of 48 oracle cards and stop them anytime when someone feels to? Thank you.💫💃💫

[@louisehenry]

Hey there! Absolutely you should be able to do this 🙂Simply select "GIF" when downloading!

[@greetjehendriks1748]

@@louisehenry Thank you! Going to try.😊

[@greetjehendriks1748]

Hi Louise, i upgraded to Canva pro but i do not get the job done.😔 Can you tell me how i can my pictures from my galery of 44 Oracle cards put in a gif on Canva? And is it possible to stop it at any time while watching it. I'm pretty desparate😯😯😯

[@JodiKnepper]

Do you know how to work with the new giphy plug-in? I can't get it to download a usable finished product! Resolution seems too low. Wondering if there's a secret...

[@chidieberelevi3344]

nice video, learnt a lot for a short one. one quick question, can i add sound to the animation?

[@farahinramran167]

transparent background is there or not?

[@louisehenry]

You can do this with Canva Pro 🙂

[@jewelthompson4210]

So canva doesn’t already have gifs? Trying to find some gifs that I seen someone use on canva

[@louisehenry]

Hi Alexis! They do! They're called "stickers" and you can find them under "elements" 🙂 This is just how to create one if you don't see one you like!

HI..! is it possible to use this kind of gif to send them in whatsapp? thanks!

[@thenutriship]

Hey I wanna make a gif of my own pic... How to do that??

[@louisehenry]

Hey there! You would need to take a video of yourself (something like a boomerang video), upload it to Canva and then follow these steps in the video! 🙂

[@thenutriship]

Thanks for ur reply but in my phone canva shows save as MP4 video only. What to do? Also I wanna use GIF on insta story.....is it possible for u to upload a video for the same, like we use GIF of any film star...

Once again, thanks for a great tutorial! Quick question: why download as a movie vs. GIF when using for social media?

[@louisehenry]

Hey Noelle! You're welcome :) From what I know, a GIF file will not work. A movie file will though!

[@candicegibb82]

can you please show how to actually load it Facebook? It saves then seems 'useless'? THANKS!

[@PAZHORDY]

HI, thanks for the tutorial. Could you tell me if this service its for free? thanks

[@louisehenry]

Hi Pedro, you need Canva Pro (their paid subscription plan). However, you can try it out first with a free 30 day trial and then it's quite affordable after that - $12.95/month.

[@JulieB713]

Great video! Wondering if an individual piece of a GIF can be made stationary so only the rest of the pieces animate.

[@nick0703]

Doesn’t seem to do any animations anymore unfortunately

[@louisehenry]

Nick Alexander it does! You just need to be on the Canva for work plan. You can try it out with a free 30 day trial (just click the upgrade button you see when logged in)

[@nick0703]

@@louisehenry thanks for the reply, but I just signed up, but couldn't get any gif or moving animation at all. Not sure if I'm just doing it wrong, or if they have changed it... cheers

[@louisehenry]

Nick Alexander all good! They have recently made a lot of changes. So when you go into a design, click the small arrow top right and you should see an option to download as a animation 😊

[@nick0703]

@@louisehenry Thanks for your help! I had to sign out and sign back in for it to recognise my work plan. All working now cheers x

Wonderful!!

That was great! Can you do them on FB: do you save as an MP4?

[@louisehenry]

Mary Brooks yes!! That’s exactly how I’d do it 😊🙌

[@MohammadUmairAnsari]

Tried this with an existing template. Edited the text and added an image. The issue is that these GIFs are heavy files (mine was 141 MB) to download. How to reduce GIF size?
