My name is Audrey Dierdorff. I am a subject matter expert with OTAN, but don't let that fool you, OK? I just love technology. So some of you might be more experts than I am. So this is why we're here together, and I want to hear what you have to say. So if you have anything to add, you can put it in the chat, or you can raise your hand, and we can learn together. This is a follow-along workshop. So we did put in the description that you should bring your own device. If you didn't, then I'll give you the slides at the end of the presentation. And then you can just follow all the instructions on the slide. I have it on this view of-- All right, I need to move this down so I can see my slide. I have a preview view. So it might look a little bit different because we are going to go to Canva. We'll sign in, and I will show you each of the magic tools that it has. OK? I'm also a resource teacher at Sweetwater Union High School District. And if you notice little things down here, I am what's considered officially a certified educator of Magic School AI. You can ask me about that later. [LAUGHTER] AUDIENCE: work for me. AUDREY DIERDORFF: Hold on. As I said, I work for OTAN. we have a lot of different services, opportunities, besides just the TDLS. But teaching with technology, professional development. If you want us to come out and teach this, teach Canva at your site, you can call or email support@otan.us and get something on campus. AUDIENCE: People are asking if you have a PowerPoint deck you can share in the chat? AUDREY DIERDORFF: I will-- actually, at the end, there's a QR code, and there's a Bitly at the very end. (DESCRIPTION) Text, Who's in the room? Question 1: What is your level of expertise with Canva? First time user, beginner, intermediate, or advanced. (SPEECH) OK. So today, let's talk about who's here. So I want to know what your level of expertise is. So how many of you, whether online or here in person, is a first-time user of Canva? Raise your hand. OK. 1, 2, 3, 4. And people in the chat, do we know-- we have how many? AUDIENCE: Beginner. AUDREY DIERDORFF: Used it once before. A little first timer. OK, this is good to know. How many of you would consider yourselves a beginner? Raise your hand. OK, beginners? And then in the chat-- OK, there is a beginner. Intermediate? Oh, good. OK. Share your expertise with us. Advanced? OK. Maybe. We'll see. OK, all right. Let's go on. (DESCRIPTION) Question 2: What have you created with Canva? Flyer, social media post, presentation, hyperlinked document, whiteboard, etc. (SPEECH) OK. So what I want to know, for those of you online and in person, what have you created with Canva? So there are so many things you can create. It's ridiculous. But so in the online, please just put it in the chat here. Why don't you call up one of the things you created? AUDIENCE: Fliers. AUDREY DIERDORFF: Fliers? AUDIENCE: Presentation video for us. AUDREY DIERDORFF: Presentation video? OK. AUDIENCE: Logo and image for a T-shirt. AUDREY DIERDORFF: Image for a T-shirt, nice. AUDIENCE: Social media post. AUDREY DIERDORFF: Social media post? I use it all the time for social media post. AUDIENCE: Business cards. AUDREY DIERDORFF: Business cards. That's cool. Yeah. AUDIENCE: Zoom backgrounds and graduation videos. AUDREY DIERDORFF: Zoom backgrounds and graduation video. Very nice. AUDIENCE: Logos. AUDREY DIERDORFF: Logos? OK, awesome. AUDIENCE: Thank you cards with photo images. AUDREY DIERDORFF: Photo images. Perfect. OK. So how many of you have actually used the Magic Studio within Canva? Anybody? One, two. OK. And online, anybody use Magic Studio? (DESCRIPTION) Main Objective for today: Introduction to Canva's Magic Studio. (SPEECH) OK. Well, that is our main objective for today is we are going to do an introduction of Magic Studio, which makes it a lot more simple. And we're going to go over each individual feature. But first of all, if you're new, you need to get registered. So because I only have now 55 minutes, I'm going to go through it pretty fast because it's pretty intense. Before, when Canva was pretty new, it was easy to get a free Educator account. It was just a matter of saying, yes, I'm a teacher. And OK, there you get it. Not anymore, because they're realizing they're giving away a very good product or free to anybody, and they're expecting the people to be honest. And it's not happening. So there's going to be a little bit more stuff. (DESCRIPTION) Should Haves/Suggested: Should have: Canva Educator or Pro Account (we will review steps on how to sign up for a free Educator account.) Suggested: A device to follow along with this presentation. (SPEECH) So I should have-- you should have Canva Educator or Pro account. We are going to go through the steps on how to sign up for that. And then follow-along device. So if you're at home or online, if you have a second device, that's great. If not, if you know how to split your screen, you can do that side by side. I don't recommend it on a laptop. But if you have a giant gaming monitor, it works pretty well. (DESCRIPTION) Opening a Canva Account: To open a free account, go to https://www.canva.com/education. (SPEECH) OK. So the first step to get the free account is you can't go to canva.com. You actually have to go to canva.com-- for-- that is a forward slash, right? I always get my backward and forward-- education. OK? So you have to get to the Education account. I'm really sorry, I'm going to run through this a little bit faster because my 90 minute, as I said, went to 60 minutes. (DESCRIPTION) A screenshot from the Canva website that reads, Inspiring teachers and engage students. Across the bottom are three boxes: One says Teachers with a Get Verified button, the middle says Schools with a Contact Us button, and the third say Students with a Resources button. (SPEECH) So when you do that, you go to that site, you're going to see this beautiful photo. And on the bottom left, you say Teachers Get Verified. So you're going to select that purple button to get verified. And now we're going to get to go through the fun steps of getting a free account. (DESCRIPTION) A mobile screenshot that says Welcome to Canva for Education at the top with options below. Text, Canva will prompt you to sign-in: 1, Continue with Google, 2, Continue with Microsoft, 3, Continue with Clever, 4, Continue with email, 5, Continue another way. (SPEECH) It will ask you to sign in, either with Google, Microsoft, Clever. Have you ever heard of Clever before? I had to look it up. It was really interesting. It's an LLMs for students-- yeah. Email or another way. So I always suggest, if you have a work Google email or Google account, use it. It'll be the best way to get in. So go ahead and select with Google or if you want to do it a different way, you can. AUDIENCE: So if I logged in over on the left, it says my name, it says education, that means I must have set it up before? AUDREY DIERDORFF: Yeah. AUDIENCE: Yeah. AUDREY DIERDORFF: If yours already says education, you are good to go. (DESCRIPTION) Text, Claim Canva. Canva will prompt you to claim your free account. Select the purple Get Started button. A screenshot that says, Claim Canva for Education for free, with a Get started button at the bottom. A photo shows a tablet and a smartphone both with a Canva-designed graphic on the screen. (SPEECH) So it's going to prompt you to claim your free account. Then you're going to select the Get Started button. Now, if you're not a K through 12 teacher, which we're an adult Ed, we are not, we're going to say Get Started, right? You don't have to tell them that we're adult ed. We are teachers. We claim it. Get Started, OK? So click that purple button. (DESCRIPTION) Text, Input More information. A form that says at the top, Okay, tell us a bit more. The fields are First name, Last name, a checkbox next to, I don't teach at a school, then School name, School Address. A Continue button appears at the bottom. (SPEECH) Then it's going to prompt you to fill out some work information. So your name, your school name. Sometimes when you start typing in the school name, it will pop up. So if somebody on your campus, another teacher, another administrator, or staff have used it before, they could have inputted that school in there. So you want to go ahead and search for your school name. And after you do that, all of that information, go ahead and select the purple Continue button. (DESCRIPTION) Text, Get Verified. Canva will prompt you to upload a document/photo of your qualifications or employment status. Then, select Submit. Accepted Documents: School ID card, school employment status. You will need to upload either a JPG, PNG, or PDF. (SPEECH) And then this is the new thing. You have to take a picture of your ID, and it has to have basically your name, the year, and the school name, school ID card, or employment status. So you take a picture and you have to upload it into Canva. It says-- yeah, date with the current academic year in your school or organization name and your full name. OK? Yes. AUDIENCE: Do you know if you haven't had it for a really long time that-- are you kind of grandfathered in if you got the free version a while ago? AUDREY DIERDORFF: Not necessarily. If you've never-- if you've got an old Education account, yes. But-- AUDIENCE: She used to work, but she had-- it's just a regular free personal. Yeah. I mean it's OK. It's working. I just wanted to make sure that-- AUDREY DIERDORFF: So the reason why I want you to get the Educator account is because some of the Magic Studio features will not work with the free account. So If you can get a Pro account by doing the step that I talked about, it's going to be a lot better for you. AUDIENCE: Yeah, I've had my account for a long time, but something came up on my Canva the other day about the effect. Do we have to update periodically and send them that? If we haven't-- AUDREY DIERDORFF: Maybe. They might be rolling that out. AUDIENCE: And I'll- Let's get it out of the way. AUDREY DIERDORFF: Well, they will do it again. I promise you. So they're not going to miss it. If they're trying to make sure that everybody that signed up in the past was an educator, they're going to ask it for it again. You're welcome. So it does have to be either a JPEG, a PNG, or a PDF. Those are the type of files they accept. (DESCRIPTION) Up to 7 Days for Upgrade. Canva will let you know within 7 days whether your account has been upgraded. To exit, select the purple "Done" button. Screenshot text, Thanks, we're on it. We need some time to check all of that information. You don't have access to Canva for Education yet, but we'll let you know within 7 days whether your account has been upgraded. Below is a button that says Done. (SPEECH) Then after, it says they're going to give you seven days to be upgraded. I did this recently so I could get the little clip art thing. So the screenshot-- and it took one hour. Until I got that, hey, you now have the free account. So it's up to seven days? Not necessarily. They're pretty quick. And then you're going to go ahead and click Done. But they're not done yet, even though it says done. Then (DESCRIPTION) Text, Subjects you teach? Select the subject or subjects you teach. Then, select the purple Continue button. Screenshot text, What subjects do you teach? This will help us find templates and designs you'll love in the future. Options: Languages, English, Science, Math, Art. With a Continue button at the bottom. (SPEECH) you have to do the subject areas. And this is where it's very biased towards high school, middle school, elementary school. Nothing here about adult ed or continuing education. So I just picked English because ESL is my background. (DESCRIPTION) Text, Grade you teach? Not Adult Ed friendly, but choose the grade or grades you teach. Then, select the purple Submit button. Note: You will still have access to all templates no matter what grade you select. (SPEECH) And then what grades do you teach? They only show primary, middle, and high. So I went with the level that my students are at. So are they at a sixth-grade reading level? Seventh-grade reading level? Second grade reading level. So you want to do it that way. No matter what grades you actually choose, you're going to have access to all the templates. So I don't find this helpful. It's never stopped me from getting all the primary templates. So I'm not sure why they asked this, but it is something that they're asking you to do. And then you click the Submit or select the Submit purple button. I'm hoping I'm not going too fast, but it will be this step by step when you get the slides. (DESCRIPTION) Your Turn. We will pause here for you to complete creating a Canva account and ask questions. You can still use Canva without being verified. But, you might have limited access to AI features. (SPEECH) OK. I'm going to pause here for questions. If you're trying to do it right now-- I know it's hard because you have to upload your ID and all that, but is there any questions in the chat? AUDIENCE: Not that I haven't answered. AUDREY DIERDORFF: OK. AUDIENCE: So you just need to know for that session leaving early, and they miss the URL. So I put it in the chat form. AUDIENCE: Thank you. AUDIENCE: Thank you. You're so sweet. AUDREY DIERDORFF: OK, are we good here in the room? AUDIENCE: Yes. AUDREY DIERDORFF: All right. OK, let's get to the magic, people. (DESCRIPTION) Magic Studio News. Newest feature in Canva. Released October 4, 2023. A screenshot says, Meet Magic Studio: All the power of AI, all in one place. Magic Studio brings together the best AI-powered tools for you and your team, right inside Canva. A graphic shows a collecting of cascading screens with different images, including people and sound waves, with a play button in the center. (SPEECH) Whoo, meet Magic Studio! I wish I had the music going. OK. So it's the newest feature in Canva. I decided to present in Canva, I think, at the last TDLS. And so I wanted to do it. And then they changed everything as of October 4. And I had to redo all my slides because they put it all in one, which is better. I like it. It's all in one area. So it's going to make you have fun using it because you're just going to go to that one tab and just have at it. So a lot of features. I'm just going to name them real quick, and then we're going to go into every one. (DESCRIPTION) Text, Features of Magic Studio. Magic Design: General: for use with social media posts, flyers, etc. Presentations: use a prompt to create a presentation. Video: select images; describe the intent of the video. (SPEECH) So we have Magic Design for three different things. General, which is like flyers, presentations, and videos. (DESCRIPTION) Magic Write (W-R-I-T-E): Prompt to first draft (Pro/EDU feature). (SPEECH) We're going to go over Magic Write, which is similar to what you do with ChatGPT or with Gemini. (DESCRIPTION) Magic Switch: Change size and format of your design (Pro/EDU feature). (SPEECH) You have Magic Switch, which I love, and we'll talk about that. (DESCRIPTION) Magic Animate: add motion to your design (Pro/EDU feature). (SPEECH) We'll talk about Magic Animate. Basically, it's putting the transitions between your slides or on your slide. (DESCRIPTION) Magic Morph: Transform words and shapes with a prompt (Pro/EDU feature). (SPEECH) Magic Morph. This is my least favorite, where you can take the letters and actually blow them up like a balloon or something like that, but it doesn't really work very well. And they're very good at saying, if you don't like it, send us feedback. So they are constantly trying to update their AI. (DESCRIPTION) Magic Media: Turn text into a video or image. (SPEECH) You have Magic Media. This is my favorite. You can turn text into either a video or image. So not just an image, but you actually can create a video with your prompt. (DESCRIPTION) Magic Edit: Add, replace, or edit with a written prompt. (SPEECH) Magic Edit. So you can-- say, somebody has a hat on. You don't like that hat. So you can actually erase the hat and ask them with a prompt. Ask them with a prompt to put in something else, maybe like a chicken or something. (DESCRIPTION) Magic Grab: Pull an image from a background (Pro/EDU feature). (SPEECH) Magic Grab, where you pull the image out. We'll talk about that. And (DESCRIPTION) Magic Extend: Extend any scenery (Pro/EDU feature). (SPEECH) Magic Extend. Sorry, I am going fast, people online. I apologize. I have 45 minutes. AUDIENCE: On Media Grab, it says Pro. Does that mean that I wouldn't be able to do it? AUDREY DIERDORFF: So yes, everything on the slides that say PRO/EDU, that means that if you have that Educator account, you can do all of this stuff. All the ones. So Magic Media seems to not have it. So it's not a PRO/EDU. What else? And then the Magic Design is not. So (DESCRIPTION) Magic Design: General. Describe what you want to design and have social media posts, presentations or even videos created customized to your description. Type your idea or vision in a few words or upload your own media. Magic Design will generate a collection of custom templates just for you. Live demonstration and practice. (SPEECH) let's talk about Magic Design, General. So all you're going to do is you're going to describe what you want, either social media post or presentation. And then you're going to type your idea into the little box. You can even upload your own media if you want. It's going to generate a custom template just for you. OK, let's do the live demonstration. AUDIENCE: We do have one question in the chat. Where in Canada do I access Magic Studio? AUDREY DIERDORFF: Perfect question. We're going to go there right now. (DESCRIPTION) She opens a Google page and goes to canva.com. (SPEECH) I like it. I love it when you just help me with my segues. Wait, no. That one's called? No. AUDIENCE: Yeah. AUDREY DIERDORFF: I always think of the thing that you write as a segway. Right? Oh my goodness. All right. So here I am in my Canva account. And right here to the-- we're under Home on the left column. You're going to select Magic Studio. And (DESCRIPTION) She clicks Magic Studio from the left menu and the Magic Studio home page appears. (SPEECH) ta-da, when I select it, all of it is there. All I have to do is scroll. (DESCRIPTION) She scrolls down to show Magic Design, Magic Design for Presentations, and Magic Design for video options. (SPEECH) So I'm going to scroll up, and here is Magic Design. So the first three cards that are side by side are all the Magic Design. So I'm going to click my Magic Design, the very first card. And it's going to say, try Magic Design. (DESCRIPTION) She clicks the Magic Design Card. A popup appears with a text description and animated demo. (SPEECH) And so a lot of the things I put in my slides is what you see here. So you're going to see it twice. And I'm just going to select the purple Try Magic Design button. (DESCRIPTION) She clicks the Try Magic Design button on the popup. (SPEECH) OK, this is where I'm probably going to have to put down the microphone. And I need to write where it says, use 5-plus words to describe. This is where I put my prompt. This is not like ChatGPT, right? This is simple-- just kind of try it. You don't have to add all the context, unless you really want to. So I do recommend that if you are looking for a certain type of, quote unquote, "person," that you have to be specific to the demographics of the student that go to your school. Unfortunately, that's the way AI is. It's biased. So I work around the bias by saying, I work by the border of Mexico and San Diego. So I say, a middle-aged Mexican man wearing, you know. So I have to do that if I want the image to look like my demographic so that the students can connect with the image, OK? So hopefully, one day we won't have to, but I don't think so. I mean, it's just something that's happening, unfortunately. So really simple. I'm going to do how to create a cheese pizza. (DESCRIPTION) She types into the prompt box. (SPEECH) OK? So I'm going to go ahead, and I will then select Templates. Oh, and Enter. Sorry. It's already showing. So I'm just going to select Enter after I have put it in the chat. (DESCRIPTION) A screen loads titled, How to Create a Cheese Pizza templates. (SPEECH) And you can see that Magic Design. Notice that it says beta. So they're still testing it out. They're still making it better. And there is my Magic Design. So (DESCRIPTION) It shows three different-sized examples, labeled your story, Facebook cover, and YouTube thumbnail. The first shows an aerial view of a pizza with the text, How to make a delicious cheese pizza, a step by step guide for beginners. The Facebook cover says, Cheesy Bites: How to create a delicious cheese pizza at home, step by step guide to making the perfect cheese pizza, with a photo of a spatula taking out a slice of cheese pizza from the pan. The YouTube thumbnail says, Pizza Heaven, How to Make the Perfect Cheese Pizza Home, in black and tan with a pizza photo. (SPEECH) it gave me a story that I could put in Instagram. It gave me a Facebook cover. It gave me a YouTube thumbnail. (DESCRIPTION) She clicks the right arrow button to show another YouTube thumbnail with a different pizza photo that says, How to make the perfect cheese pizza. (SPEECH) It gave me a Facebook cover. Where (DESCRIPTION) She clicks the right arrow again to show more Facebook cover options. (SPEECH) are my slides? No slides. Instagram (DESCRIPTION) The last one is captioned, Instagram Post. It shows a single slice of cheese pizza and the text, Let's make pizza! How to create a delicious cheese pizza in 5 steps. From making the dough to adding the toppings, learn how to create a classic cheese pizza with this step-by-step guide. (SPEECH) posts. So let's see what this says. Look at my Instagram post. (DESCRIPTION) She clicks the Instagram post image and it opens in a window with the text next to it, A new template crafted for you, and a button that says, Customize this template. Text, Included with Canva Pro. 100% fully customizable, edit and download on the go, share and publish anywhere. (SPEECH) I'm going to continue with this template. So all I did was select-- sorry, I'm going fast. All I did was select the template I wanted, OK? So once you select it and you then select the purple Customize This Template, you can now edit anything on here. You (DESCRIPTION) She clicks the Customize this template button. The Instagram post photo appears in a photo editor with editing options to the left. (SPEECH) don't like cheese pizza? You could add pepperoni, right? You could through Magic-- what is it? Magic Edit, OK? So let me increase the-- whoa, delicious. Come on. It didn't work with me. (DESCRIPTION) She clicks the arrow on the editing menu to hide it and enlarges the photo. (SPEECH) OK. So that's how to create a delicious cheese. So if I had-- so we do have a culinary class. So if I wanted to do a social media post about, hey, come learn how to do cheese pizza, there I have it. All I'd have to do is maybe put in my logo. Maybe I'd have to add maybe the time and date of the course. So it's just that easy. It's like a snap of the button. Any questions with this Magic Design? You guys have used it before. maybe? OK, let's go on to the next one. Anything in the chat? No? OK. (DESCRIPTION) She goes back to the slide show. Text, Magic Design for presentations. Get a head start on your slides and let Magic Presentation create a professional presentation, tailored to your content. (SPEECH) So this is for presentation. Now, I will say I've used this several times, and it seems to like the same templates over and over. All it does is change the content. So I just wanted to give you an FYI on that. It's not as fancy as some of the other features, but you would-- again, you start describing your presentation. Again, the five or more words. And then it lays out the slides based on what you described. Usually, it's about seven slides, which is it seems to be their norm. So let's go ahead and look at what that looks like. So I'm going to go back to my Magic Studio button. So (DESCRIPTION) She goes back to Magic Design in Canva. She clicks the Back to Home button in the left menu. (SPEECH) go back Home, and I go to my Magic Studio. (DESCRIPTION) She clicks Magic Studio under the Home menu on the left. (SPEECH) Scroll down to the second card for Magic Design. It says Magic Design for presentations. (DESCRIPTION) She clicks the Try Magic Design button on the popup. (SPEECH) And then try Magic Design. (DESCRIPTION) It opens a slide editor with instructions on the first slide and a search button on the left. Text, Try Magic Design for Presentations. 1, Click the search bar on the left toolbar. 2, Write a pitch for meeting free lunches at work and press enter. 3, Click on the first presentation under Magic Design and apply to all pages. (SPEECH) And here, it's now a presentation. So these are slides. So I'm going to go ahead and say, How to make a cheese pizza? It kept what I wrote. (DESCRIPTION) She types in the search bar. In the editor menu under the search bar are slide thumbnails. She clicks on the first thumbnail and the slides change with each click as it goes through the presentation. Slide 1 of 7, 2 of 7, etc. (SPEECH) And now at the very top, on the left-hand side, is where the slides will come. All the rest below it are already created templates. So it gives you templates that they've saved over the years. And then the ones created by AI are at the top. So I will go ahead and say, See All. (DESCRIPTION) She clicks the See All button above the thumbnails, and below appear all six slide presentation thumbnails. (SPEECH) OK, I don't know if you can see that very well, but I'll just go ahead and choose one of the templates that catches my eye. (DESCRIPTION) She clicks on one thumbnail and it shows all seven slides. The button at the top says, Apply all seven pages. (SPEECH) And then once I select the one I wanted, I'm going to say, Apply All Seven Changes or All Seven Pages. And this is what it looks like. So (DESCRIPTION) The slide presentation moves to the center, showing the first slide enlarged in the center and the other slide thumbnails in a row below. The first slide says, Cheese Pizza, a step-by-step guide, with a photo of ingredients to the right. (SPEECH) I'm not going to change anything in it. And I'm just going to present so (DESCRIPTION) She clicks the Present button in the upper right corner of the screen. (SPEECH) if you didn't know, you can actually present your slides within Canva, which is pretty cool. So you're going to notice that it has transition that I didn't have to put in. All of your Google slides, you have to do transitions or PowerPoint. I don't have to do that in Canva. So I'm going to select it. Let's see how they think we should make a cheese pizza. (DESCRIPTION) In the dropdown menu, Present full screen is selected, and she clicks the Present button at the bottom. The first slide is shown full screen. (SPEECH) So it's a correct picture, right? AUDIENCE: Oh, can you-- AUDREY DIERDORFF: Yeah, sorry. Thank you, sir. OK, so step-by-step guide. So I did say how to make it. (DESCRIPTION) The slide changes and she reads the text. (SPEECH) Oh, look at that. Welcome to cheese pizza making class. [LAUGHS] (DESCRIPTION) The next slide says, Mastering the Cheese Pizza, Crafting a delicious cheese pizza, with a photo of a spatula lifting out a cheesy slice of pizza. (SPEECH) I don't want to have pizza tonight. [LAUGHTER] Mastering the cheese pizza. That looks good. (DESCRIPTION) The next slide is text only. Text, Making a Delicious Cheese Pizza: To make a mouth-watering cheese pizza, start by preparing the dough and spreading a generous amount of tomato sauce. Sprinkle a blend of mozzarella, cheddar, and parmesan cheese over the sauce. Add your favorite toppings like pepperoni or vegetables. Bake in a preheated oven until the cheese is bubbly and the crust is golden brown. Enjoy your homemade cheesy masterpiece! (SPEECH) Making a delicious cheese pizza. So then it gives you a little bit of how to make it. Sprinkle this, bake in a preheated oven. But it's not very specific. Now, I could have made my prompt a little bit more specific, and it would have done something better. OK? So (DESCRIPTION) The next slide shows a photo of an adult's and a toddler's hands topping pizzas. Text, Creating a delicious cheese pizza. Learn how to make a mouth-watering cheese pizza at home with simple ingredients and step-by-step instructions. (SPEECH) but all of these things are editable. So you can go ahead and put in the steps yourself, like I was showing our culinary teacher how to do it. (DESCRIPTION) The next slide shows a photo of a pizza with ingredients surrounding it. Text, Cheese Pizza Recipe: Start by stretching pizza dough. add tomato sauce, sprinkle cheese, bake until golden. A cheese pizza is incomplete without the gooey melted cheese on top. Enjoy! (SPEECH) And then the recipe. Oh, it wants you to make your own dough, by the way. Stretching pizza dough, OK? (DESCRIPTION) The next slide shows a photo of two hands grating parmesan on top of a pizza. Text, Savor the cheesy goodness now! (SPEECH) And then some cheese. And that was it. OK. So what did you think? (DESCRIPTION) She exits presentation mode and goes back to the editor. (SPEECH) Would you be able to use something as your foundation? AUDIENCE: Yeah. AUDREY DIERDORFF: Pretty, pretty cool. AUDIENCE: Pictures are good. AUDREY DIERDORFF: Pictures are good. Sometimes if they're not, you just have to replace them, or you can actually erase different things. OK, what's next? (DESCRIPTION) She goes back to her slide presentation. Text, Magic Design for Video: Transform your content into short, shareable videos with built-in music. (SPEECH) All right. So this is Magic Design for Video. So you're going to transform your content into short, shareable videos with built-in music. Pretty cool. So I could use the microphone to let you hear. The music will come up again. OK. So (DESCRIPTION) Start by uploading images, videos, or both. Select your clips and enter a short description about your video. Magic Design for Video will generate the rest and sync a music track to it. (SPEECH) you have to upload different images, three or more, from your device. You're going to select your clips and then enter a short description of the video. So depending on what kind of video you're looking for, and it's going to generate the rest. And it will pick the music for you. You don't get to pick the music. And then it will sink in. So let's try it. (DESCRIPTION) She goes back to the Magic Studio page on Canva and clicks on, Magic Design for Video. (SPEECH) So I'm going to go back to the third. This is the last card on this Magic Design row. Select that and try Magic Design. (DESCRIPTION) She clicks the, Try Magic Design, button on the popup. A popup opens tiled with photos. Across the top it reads, Select at least three files to add to your video. The first tile is an upload icon. (SPEECH) So I want you to-- when it popped up, it looks like an Instagram story. It doesn't do the landscape. It only does portrait. And it only does the side for TikTok and for Instagram, because I think they think that's where only where you post, right? So that's what it's doing. So now you can select different photos. So (DESCRIPTION) She clicks three photos and a checkmark appears in the corner of each. A text box opens at the bottom after the third is clicked. It says at the top, Describe the kind of video you want. We'll use this to generate a design. E.g. video to promote Kneed Gluten-Free Bakery. (SPEECH) I'm going to select that one, that one, that one. And then you can select up to ten, I believe. (DESCRIPTION) She scrolls down and clicks on a few more photos. (SPEECH) Let me select that one. (DESCRIPTION) One of the photos is a close-up of Steve Carell as Michael Scott from the TV show "The Office." (SPEECH) And I don't know why I have Michael Scott there. I'm so sorry. OK, I'll just do-- OK, I'll just do this. So then I'm going to go ahead and write-- so I'm going to put my microphone down-- what I want. Ah, don't roll. OK. (DESCRIPTION) She types in the text box. (SPEECH) Sweetwater Adult Education Promotional Video. OK? And now, all I'm going to do is click the purple generator button at the bottom right. (DESCRIPTION) She clicks the Generate button. (SPEECH) And here we go. It's generating the video. I'm going to take a minute, 30 seconds to a minute. And there it is. So let's play it. (DESCRIPTION) A video player appears with the first photo selected of a woman wearing a hard hat. The text on top says, Are you looking to learn a new skill? The other photos appear in a row across the bottom. Below that is the runtime meter. A play button appears to its left. (SPEECH) Hopefully, you'll be able to hear the music. Did I share the sound? Hopefully, I-- if you guys cannot hear the sound when I play the video, let me know or let Holly know. [LAUGHS] (DESCRIPTION) She clicks the image of the woman in the hardhat and the video plays. The image switches to a man working at a desk in a classroom, with the text, Sweetwater Adult Education can help! (SPEECH) What happened to my sound? (DESCRIPTION) The next image is another man working at a desk. Text, We offer a variety of classes to fit your needs. (SPEECH) Oh, man. (DESCRIPTION) A woman smiles at a desk with an open book in front of her. Text, So what are you waiting for? Enroll today. (SPEECH) OK, so that was really quick. I don't know what happened to my sound. Let me-- OK. Well, it says Join Audio, but I don't want to do that. It started to go and then it stopped, huh? Well, let me-- let me stop sharing real quick, and I'm going to go ahead and share again. And I'll do the screen share. Sound is on. OK, let me try it one more time. (DESCRIPTION) She plays the video again. (SPEECH) No. That's weird. OK. Well, but you can see what it's doing, right? It actually gave titles for the video. And so you can then go in and-- (DESCRIPTION) She zooms in on the first photo of the video. (SPEECH) why is this in front of her face? I (DESCRIPTION) She clicks and moves the text box. (SPEECH) have no idea why it's in front of her face. So if you don't want to do that, you just will go down, and you just pull it down. So everything is editable, right? Not edible, but editable. The cheese pizza one was edit-- I cannot say. Never mind. AUDIENCE: Edible. AUDREY DIERDORFF: Edible. OK. So pretty cool? You guys like that? AUDIENCE: Yeah. AUDREY DIERDORFF: Like a snap of a finger and there you have a promotional video. And so, by the way, all these people were generated by Canva, the AI. So we're going to talk about that. All right. Sorry about the sound. Us, too, no sound. OK, let's talk about Magic Write. So this is, again, similar to ChatGPT. It's AI-powered teaching assistant is what they call it. So you type a prompt, you watch Magic Write generate a first draft just like ChatGPT, and then you can immediately take that and turn it into a presentation. You can change content and design it with the Magic Write tool. So let me show you a little bit from this video that we just tried to do. So say, I didn't like-- I'm going to just enlarge this. (DESCRIPTION) She zooms in on the woman in the hard hat with the text. (SPEECH) So it says, are you looking for a new-- are you looking to learn a new skill? I don't like that wording. So notice that when I select the writing, there is a Magic Write button right on top. (DESCRIPTION) A box outlines the text, and a strip appears above the box that has four buttons: Magic Write, a plus sign, a trash can, and three-dots. (SPEECH) So I will select that. (DESCRIPTION) She Clicks Magic Write and a menu appears with the options: apply brand voice, continue writing, summarize, rewrite, more fun, more format, sprinkle fairy dust, and fix spelling. (SPEECH) And then I can either rewrite it, make it more fun, more formal. Or who would like to sprinkle some fairy dust? Do you sprinkle some fairy dust? Let's see what it said. (DESCRIPTION) She clicks sprinkle fairy dust. (SPEECH) AUDIENCE: Let's do it. AUDIENCE: [LAUGHTER] AUDREY DIERDORFF: Somebody wants to read it for me in your best sprinkly voice? [INTERPOSING VOICES] (DESCRIPTION) The text changes to: Seeking to embark on a voyage of acquiring a fresh mastery? (SPEECH) AUDIENCE: I don't even know what it says. [LAUGHTER] AUDREY DIERDORFF: Seeking to embark on a voyage of acquiring a fresh mastery? AUDIENCE: [LAUGHS] AUDREY DIERDORFF: OK, wow. OK. So I was like, OK, I want to change that. So if I select it again, I can do Magic Write over again. And I'm going to make it more fun. (DESCRIPTION) She clicks More fun. (SPEECH) Ready to dive into a new skill set adventure? OK, that's pretty good. So it can do any writing on any of your presentations, your social media posts, or whatever. You can use this Magic Write on anything that's written, OK? Or you can use it like ChatGPT, where if you go to the Magic Studio, try Magic Write, try Magic Write. (DESCRIPTION) She goes back to the Magic Studio homepage and clicks the Try Magic Write button, then clicks the Try Magic Write button on the popup. It opens a word processor with the text on top: One day or day one. You decide. Below is a box that says, Brand Kit. Use 5 or more words to describe what you want to write. It has a Try an example button, and it has a Generate button at the bottom. (SPEECH) Here, you're going to type in what you want to write. So let me put this down. I'm going to keep a pizza, by the way. So write about-- write a recipe on-- I spelled it wrong. How do you spell recipe? AUDIENCE: R-E-C-I-P-E. AUDREY DIERDORFF: Thank you. AUDIENCE: Want to correct you. AUDREY DIERDORFF: Uh-oh. AUDIENCE: It's squiggled. AUDREY DIERDORFF: Yeah, it's squiggled. I'd have to-- yeah. But you guys know how to write. You guys know. (DESCRIPTION) She types into the box. (SPEECH) I got-- let's write a recipe on how to create a simple cheese pizza with instructions. OK? So then I just select Generate. And there it is. (DESCRIPTION) Three paragraphs of text appears. (SPEECH) To embark on the journey of crafting a mouthwatering cheese pizza-- AUDIENCE: Is this sprinkled with-- AUDREY DIERDORFF: I don't know. It sure sounds like it, doesn't it? So there you have it. Notice it's not bulleted like you can at ChatGPT or Gemini, right? So it is actually writing. So this would be a great platform for students, if they wanted to practice their writing, or for you, right? If you needed to write a letter of recommendation or something like that, you can put in the information. So from here, if I went to-- (DESCRIPTION) She reads the fine print below the paragraphs. (SPEECH) Generated with AI. Technology is new and improving. So please check it. All right, I will. So (DESCRIPTION) She clicks the plus sign in the left margin and a menu of actions pops up with a search bar on top. (SPEECH) see how I click this plus button to the left of the last paragraph? I'm (DESCRIPTION) She scrolls through the menu. (SPEECH) going to select the paragraph, and I can actually then go ahead and put in bulleted list, numbered list, check, divider. So there are formatting that you can put into this, if you would like. It doesn't magically do it for you, but you just have to go an extra step of selecting. OK? All right. Moving on. We have a lot of time. And then if there's any questions, please make sure to raise your hand or yell it out. (DESCRIPTION) She goes back to her slide presentation. (SPEECH) Magic Switch. It's going to change the size and format of your design. So for those of you that use it for social media posts and then you're like, you know what, I want to make a flyer. It's a click of a button to make it into a flyer, the same social media post of that size. So we're going to show you how to do that one. You can also take a flyer or something and actually change it into a presentation as well. (DESCRIPTION) Text, Transform your presentation into a document. Resize your design into another format. Translate your design into another language. (SPEECH) So let's look-- oh, the Translate. So I've been using lately. All of my social media posts, I translate into Spanish because that's our population of where we live. And it's a pretty good translator. So you guys, if you speak Spanish, we can try it. Or if you speak another language, maybe we should try that because I think in California, Spanish seems to be the second language. AUDIENCE: Yeah. AUDREY DIERDORFF: So maybe we can try a language that it's not too familiar with and see how well it works. So let's take a look at it. AUDIENCE: Try Hawaiian, they say. AUDREY DIERDORFF: Try Hawaiian? (DESCRIPTION) She goes back to the Magic Studio home page and clicks on, Resize and Magic Switch. (SPEECH) OK. All right. So here we go. Here's the resize Magic Switch. I am going to-- so you can be doing what I'm doing. So you go to the Magic Studio and you can play with each one of these by selecting it. (DESCRIPTION) She clicks the Try Magic Switch button on the popup. It opens an editor similar to the slide presentation editor. The first slide reads, Try Magic Switch: 1, Select Transform into Doc, then click Continue. 2, Select Blog post, then click Transform into Doc. 3, Open your new design. (SPEECH) OK. So this is the format that it has. Try Magic Switch. So what I would do is I would go to this resize and Magic Switch at the top, on the blue button, or the blue banner. This tab. (DESCRIPTION) She clicks the Resize and Magic Switch button from the top toolbar, which opens a menu with three tabs across the top: Resize, Transform, and Translate. (SPEECH) And then I can transform, resize-- transform or translate. This is new and updated. They didn't have the three tabs before. This is new to me. I just used it, too. So I'm going to go ahead and translate. (DESCRIPTION) She clicks the Translate tab. It says Translate to, select language, and apply to page. A checkbox appears next to, Translate existing design without creating a copy. The button at the bottom says, Translate. (SPEECH) Let's see what they can translate it into. (DESCRIPTION) She clicks the down arrow inside the Select language box to open the dropdown menu of languages. (SPEECH) I don't see the wine. What is that? Dogri? Interesting. Finish, French, Frisian? AUDIENCE: Korean. Korean. Try Korean. AUDREY DIERDORFF: OK. All right. I know my Korean sister over there. (DESCRIPTION) She clicks Korean. (SPEECH) All right. [KOREAN] AUDIENCE: You missed it. They do have Hawaiian. AUDREY DIERDORFF: They did? Sorry. AUDIENCE: You just type H. It'll go to the first. AUDREY DIERDORFF: OK, I'll go back. So you can translate it to this existing copy, or you make a new copy. So let me go ahead and just translate it, and it will actually go to a different copy. (DESCRIPTION) She clicks the Translate button. (SPEECH) I missed it. And then I opened the presentation. (DESCRIPTION) She clicks, Open Presentation. (SPEECH) Whoa! (DESCRIPTION) The slide presentation now appears in Korean characters. (SPEECH) Does it read right? AUDIENCE: Yeah, it is. Yeah. AUDREY DIERDORFF: Yeah? Is it correct? AUDIENCE: It's correct. Amazing. But (DESCRIPTION) Step 1 and 2 are written with the numerals 1 and 2, but step 3 is written with Korean characters. (SPEECH) I would look at this one, two-- one, two, and three. Instead of three, they put it in Korean language. AUDREY DIERDORFF: And that's the written three? AUDIENCE: Sam, yeah. AUDREY DIERDORFF: Sam. AUDIENCE: Sam. Sam is a-- AUDREY DIERDORFF: Il, i-- AUDIENCE: Il, i, sam. AUDREY DIERDORFF: OK. That's pretty cool, huh? AUDIENCE: Pretty cool, yeah. I like it. AUDREY DIERDORFF: All right. So (DESCRIPTION) She clicks the Resize and Magic Switch button again and clicks the Translate tab, then scrolls through the languages. (SPEECH) somebody-- OK, I'm going to-- I'm going to look for a wine because I don't want to-- I don't want to miss a wine. I want to see what that is. For some reason, I just thought Hawaiians spoke English, I'm sorry. [INTERPOSING VOICES] AUDREY DIERDORFF: I did. Oh, I see. OK. There it is. OK. AUDIENCE: (DESCRIPTION) She clicks Hawaiian, then Translate. (SPEECH) I'm so curious. AUDREY DIERDORFF: All right. And Translate. Open. (DESCRIPTION) The presentation now appears in Hawaiian. (SPEECH) Ooh. AUDIENCE: [MUFFLED] AUDREY DIERDORFF: OK. So-- AUDIENCE: Actually, it has the [NON-ENGLISH] on it, too. It's pretty good. AUDREY DIERDORFF: Yeah? That's amazing. It always amazes me when the translate actually is good. AUDIENCE: Yeah. AUDREY DIERDORFF: So for me, ChatGPT-- I do all my translating on ChatGPT or my district translators. So I have two options. If they're too booked, I use ChatGPT. OK. So there's that part of Magic Switch. (DESCRIPTION) She clicks the Resize and Magic Switch button again and stays on the Resize tab. Checkboxes appear next to the three suggested sizes: 1080 by 1080 px, video (1920 x 1080 px), and Instagram story ad, 1080 by 1920 px). Under the heading, Browse by category, are the options: custom size, social media, and print products. (SPEECH) But say, I wanted to then go ahead and actually make it a video, make it a flyer. I can make it a social media post, right? So (DESCRIPTION) She clicks social media and a new menu opens with size options for Instagram, TikTok, and Facebook. (SPEECH) say, I want an Instagram post in square, and I can click Continue. And it can copy and redesign. (DESCRIPTION) It opens a preview of the resized square slides of the Hawaiian presentation. (SPEECH) Copy and resize. (DESCRIPTION) She clicks the Copy and Resize button at the bottom. Then she clicks, Open Instagram post, and the slides are resized into squares. (SPEECH) So then it makes it into-- so you don't have to worry about the inches, the centimeters, and all of that. And there is your square Instagram post, if you wanted to post it onto social media. And you can do that. I've created logos and I've made them into big posters that we then printed and put it on the walls of the school. So there are those options. OK. Now, there was another thing on there that said-- [MUFFLED VOICES]. Back. Magic Switch, Transform. (DESCRIPTION) She clicks the Resize and Magic Switch button again and clicks the Transform tab. It says, Select text format, with the options: Summary, blog post, poem, all text, email, song lyrics, with a button at the bottom that says, Transform into Doc. (SPEECH) OK? So now anything, any content, that is actually on the slide, you can transform. Format email, song, lyrics. You want to try song lyrics? AUDIENCE: Yes. AUDREY DIERDORFF: Or a poem? No, I like song lyrics. I like to sing. As you can see, I have the carry on. [LAUGHTER] OK. So then I'm going to say Transform. AUDIENCE: Now you got to sing that. You got to. AUDREY DIERDORFF: OK, I'll come up with a song. (DESCRIPTION) She clicks Song Lyrics, then, Transform into doc. (SPEECH) AUDIENCE: No, it'll translate that into a song. AUDREY DIERDORFF: Yeah. OK. So transform into doc. So it's going into a document. Large designs may take a little longer, OK. Trying to make excuses of why it takes time. Open doc. Here we go. Here is the song. (DESCRIPTION) The word processor opens a new page that says at the top, Rock 'n' Roll: The Magic Switch Song. Below are the song lyrics, arranged into verses and chorus. (SPEECH) Rock and roll. The Magic Switch song. I don't want to sing, sorry. [LAUGHTER] I gave it a try, flip the Magic Switch, oh my. The transformation, it's a doc, and that's no lie. It sounds like a rap to me. [LAUGHS] I clicked Continue, didn't even break a sweat. It's like a blog post, the best one you can get. Pretty cool, huh? So it transforms just whatever you want it to go-- summary, presentation. OK. We still got 20 minutes. (DESCRIPTION) She goes back to her slide presentation. (SPEECH) All right. So the next one, Magic Anime. So this is basically the animation or transitions. It's going to add motion to your design. (DESCRIPTION) Text, Magic Animate. Add motion to your design. AI suggests a motion style based on your content. Choose your own motion style available in Canva. (SPEECH) And then it actually looks at the content. So this is the AI. It reads the content of your document and then tries to come up with the best motion for your content. AUDIENCE: Question. AUDREY DIERDORFF: Yes? AUDIENCE: Catherine has asked, when you use this, do you cite Canvas since it's AI generated? AUDREY DIERDORFF: No, I do not. But that's also with ChatGPT. You can't claim it as your own, but you don't have to sign it. It is open, but you can't claim it as your own like, I created this. But at the same time, you don't have to cite ChatGPT, or you don't have to cite Canva. But you can't-- it's not yours. It doesn't belong-- It belongs to the World Wide Web or whatever AI, wonderland, or whatever it's called. And that's my next presentation at CCI in state. AUDIENCE: The ones that say the Pro, we can't try with our own content unless we-- AUDREY DIERDORFF: Unless you have the Pro account, yes. And it says there, I think, on the actual Magic Studio tab or page what is free and what is Pro. AUDIENCE: Catherine said they cite ChatGPT. AUDREY DIERDORFF: Oh. OK, Catherine. Good. It's really up to each person whether they would like to or not. AUDIENCE: She says it's a business ethics issue. AUDREY DIERDORFF: OK. Thank you. It's good to know. OK. So let's do the live demonstration. Oops, go back. All right. So I'm going to go back to our Magic Studio, and I'm going to go to this Magic-- yeah, see, it says Pro right here at the top. So it's under Magic Write. So we did the resize Magic Switch. Now we'll go to Pro-- or Magic Animate. I'm going to select that card. Try Magic Animate. OK? So (DESCRIPTION) Magic Animate opens with slides as shown in Magic Switch. Along the bottom it says, Notes, Duration, Timer. The first slide reads, text, Try Magic Animate. 1, Select the recommended style from the left toolbar. 2, Youve animated the entire presentation! 3, Go to the next page to see for yourself. The left menu has Digital as the recommended style. The alternative style options are, bold, elegant, energetic, professional, playful, handmade, grunge, and minimal. (SPEECH) now it's looking at the content of this already created template, and it's recommended. So if you want, this is the recommended style at the top left here. And if I select it and then present it, you're going to see the movement of it. (DESCRIPTION) She clicks Digital, then the Present button. The presentation becomes full screen and the text is animated. It appears one word at time. Each slide, featuring simple space illustrations, is animated in the same way as the presentation runs, with the drawings and text appearing quickly but one at a time. (SPEECH) OK? So it's a little bit spacey, right? Because it's space, so it's a little spacey. Digital is what they call it. So notice that it has the fly-ins from different areas and also the actual page changes. OK? So that's kind of what-- Then you can go back and decide to change it to something else. You don't like it. So there's playful. So let's see what playful looks like. I'm presenting it within Canva. Oops, sorry. Go back. OK. So that's playful. It's a little bit different. Right, different font. And also the-- it's not as jumpy, right? It's not as jumpy as the other ones. So you can play around with that. And that's all it does, actually. So you can also do transitions between slides. So all you have to do at the bottom here is if I go between the slides and I can click and add transition, it's (DESCRIPTION) She clicks between two slide thumbnails. A plus sign and a small icon appear between the slides. The plus sign says Add page when you hover over it, and the other icon says Add transition. (SPEECH) below the plus button and I select that, I can also add transitions, if I wanted to from slide to slide, if you don't like what they already created for you. (DESCRIPTION) A menu of transition options appears in the left menu: none, dissolve, slide, circle wipe, color wipe, line wipe, match and move, flow, stack, chop. (SPEECH) AUDIENCE: I have a quick question. When it had Pro at the top, is that-- Pro and Education-- AUDREY DIERDORFF: Same. AUDIENCE: Same? OK. So if we have an Education, we can click on Pro? AUDREY DIERDORFF: Yes. AUDIENCE: OK. AUDREY DIERDORFF: So I have the Education account. So I was able to-- AUDIENCE: --access Pro. OK. AUDREY DIERDORFF: Yeah, access Pro. It seems to be Pro and Education account are one and the same. AUDIENCE: OK, See, I didn't - I didn't see that. I couldn't-- I couldn't bring in my own-- I have an Education account. I couldn't bring in my own content. I could only-- it seems like with what they offered, which was the one you have. AUDREY DIERDORFF: Oh, the transitions, you mean? AUDIENCE: Yeah. For Magic Animate and the resize, I could only use their presentations. I couldn't bring in my own thing. AUDREY DIERDORFF: That'll do it. OK. Yeah. I think this-- I think that's right that if you bring in your own, you can do the transitions at the bottom. You should be able to also-- let's play around with that maybe, and let's look at that a little bit deeper once we are ended, if you can stay. I'm just-- for the sake of time-- I'm so sorry. All right. Magic Morph. This is the one I said-- ah, it's OK. (DESCRIPTION) Text, Magic Morph: Transform words and shapes with a written prompt. Add your own style to any element, text, or shape. Describe how you want your text or element to look. (SPEECH) You can transform words and shapes into different things, add your own style, and describe how you want it to look. So let's look at it real quick. (DESCRIPTION) She goes back to Magic Studio and clicks Magic Morph, then Try Magic Morph. (SPEECH) I'm going to use what they do because they seem to-- their-- what do you call it? Their Example is a lot better than whatever. I could actually use it and create it. (DESCRIPTION) The editor opens with an illustration in the center and an editing menu on the left. The illustration says, Try Magic Morph. It says the word wow with two bubble letter W's and a white flat star in between them. Text, 1, Select the white star. 2, Write Milky lime matte balloon in the box on the left toolbar. 3, Click Magic Morph. The menu says, 1, Select an element in your design, with a box below that says, Please select an element. Above three icons it reads, Or add an example element. Below it says, 2, Describe the look. The text box below says, Include colors, objects, locations, surroundings, people, dot dot dot. Below it says, Try an example, with three differently rendered letter M's labeled, balloons, pumpkin, and wood. (SPEECH) So here they have Magic Morph, and you can see it's supposed to be Wow but without an O but with a star. So you're going to select the actual image you want to morph. So I have to select the star. (DESCRIPTION) She clicks the star between the W's and a box appears around it. The star appears in the box under number in the left menu. (SPEECH) Then I have to describe the look. (DESCRIPTION) She types in the text box under number 2 in the left menu. (SPEECH) So if I wanted it to look like a green balloon-- green balloons. So I'm just doing green balloons. And (DESCRIPTION) She clicks the Magic Morph button at the bottom of the menu. (SPEECH) I Magic Morph at the bottom, the purple button. It will then give me four different designs. It likes the number 7 for presentation. It likes the number 4 for any type of image. And Magic Morph, it likes four. AUDIENCE: If you're not happy with the four, can you try it again? AUDREY DIERDORFF: You can try it again. Definitely, you just probably want to change. So (DESCRIPTION) The menu now shows four different green balloon stars, each with the same shape but with different shading and highlights. Below is a button that says, Create again. (SPEECH) it has the Create Again button. So you could do that. So all I would do is I would select it whichever one I liked, and then I would put it in here. And (DESCRIPTION) She clicks on the balloon star with the most contrast to copy it, and drags it over the star in the word wow. (SPEECH) I can-- there's a little white round circle, where if I click and drag-- Get it right. And then I can move it. And (DESCRIPTION) She clicks the small circle below the balloon star with two arrows that point around in a circle. She tilts the star so it fits perfectly inside the white star. (SPEECH) of course, I can drag it so that it's bigger, so that it fits and covers the white, if you wanted to. Or if you get rid of the white, just put it in there. OK? So that's basically what it does. It also does it with images like this, and it does it with letters. AUDIENCE: 10 minutes. AUDREY DIERDORFF: 10 minutes. Thank you. OK, we gotta get going because the best ones are to come. All right. Magic Media is my favorite. It's probably what I use most. And that is to the two tools. Text to video. You describe a scene, and it will generate a few seconds of video. You have to include colors and movements and things. So let's take a look at that real quick. I'm going to scroll down at the Magic Studio web page. Text to video. (DESCRIPTION) She clicks, Try Magic Media. (SPEECH) Try Magic Media. (DESCRIPTION) It opens the Magic Media editor, which also has slides and an edit menu on the left. The first slide has a video player in the middle with a rocky dusty alien landscape scene. Text, Try Magic Media. 1, Click the video tab on the left toolbar. 2, Write Alien planet concept art in the box. 3, Click generate video. The left menu has two tabs, images and videos. The videos tab is open. It has a text box that says, Describe what you'd like to see. Enter 5 plus words to describe. (SPEECH) OK. Here, describe what you want. Does anybody want to describe to me a video they want to see? AUDIENCE: Let's see if we can do Voltron. Five lion robots becoming one human robot. [LAUGHTER] AUDREY DIERDORFF: OK. I'm a good typer, but do it again. AUDIENCE: Five lion robots-- AUDREY DIERDORFF: Five lion robots? AUDIENCE: --becoming one human robot. AUDREY DIERDORFF: Becoming one human robot. (DESCRIPTION) She types in the text box. (SPEECH) OK. AUDIENCE: [MUFFLED VOICES] AUDREY DIERDORFF: All right, let's see if it takes his suggestion. Generate Video. (DESCRIPTION) She clicks the Generate Video button at the bottom of the menu. (SPEECH) Look, it has that-- it's experimental. So generate the video. AUDIENCE: Grab your-- AUDREY DIERDORFF: Grab your popcorn, yeah. A brand new video inspired by your scene is being generated. One to two minutes. AUDIENCE: Question. AUDREY DIERDORFF: Yes? AUDIENCE: Can you tell them how long you want the video? Like, if you wanted a 15-second video? AUDREY DIERDORFF: For this? No. You cannot. It is limited on video. I'm sure it's going to get better, but you cannot do that now. You could create your own video by bringing in pictures and actually adding your own music. I've done that for graduation. My cousin graduated from high school, and I did her graduation-- like her baby pictures and all that with songs that she liked. And I did that all in Canva. It's still-- AUDIENCE: Any other questions? AUDIENCE: In this Magic Media, is that where you did it? On Canva? AUDREY DIERDORFF: No, I didn't. I did it by hand. I did the whole downloading or uploading all the photos and all of that into Canva. Yeah, the Magic Media videos are short. It's like three seconds. It's almost like a GIF, where it's just moving and that's it. And also, the other video is very short because you only have 10-- the max of 10 photos that you can install into that Magic Design for videos. So come on, we don't have that much time. AUDIENCE: [LAUGHTER]. It's always the last line. AUDREY DIERDORFF: I know, yeah. Everybody get off the TDLS 24. I need the bandwidth. (DESCRIPTION) A video player appears in the left menu showing a realistic rendered photo of realistic robot lions with metal joints all lined up in a big warehouse. (SPEECH) There it is. Ooh. OK. So I am going to pull it in. So I'm going to delete this. OK. (DESCRIPTION) She clicks the video player and it appears on the first slide. (SPEECH) There it is. Now, for some reason, it didn't do it the size it should have. So I am going to go ahead, and I'm going to do Magic Switch. (DESCRIPTION) She clicks the Resize and Magic Switch button on the top toolbar. She types landscape in the search bar of the Resize tab. She selects Flyer (landscape 11 by 8.5 inch), then clicks Continue. (SPEECH) And I am going to make it a landscape-- a landscape flyer. I'm going to resize this design. (DESCRIPTION) She clicks Copy and resize on the preview menu. The slides now change to landscape instead of portrait to fit the landscape video player. (SPEECH) OK? So see how easy it was for me to switch the parameters? It's pretty cool. And (DESCRIPTION) She enlarges the video player by dragging a corner. (SPEECH) then here's your video. (DESCRIPTION) She presses play and the lions move slightly for about 2 seconds. (SPEECH) [LAUGHS] And isn't that great? AUDIENCE: If we do it again, [MUFFLED LAUGHTER]. [LAUGHTER] AUDREY DIERDORFF: Sorry. Yes. So it's not the best. It's experimental still, but there you go. Here you have a little GIF of-- maybe your school are the lions. There you go. Here's your little logo. OK? So (DESCRIPTION) She goes back to the Magic Studio home page and under Magic Media she clicks on, Text to image. (SPEECH) let's go back and try-- this text-to-image is what I use the most because we have a big CTE program, and I'm trying to find students-- that pictures, images, that look like my students actually doing the work. And it's so hard to find on Unsplash or the free photos. So I always use this. (DESCRIPTION) She clicks Try it Out on the popup. A new Magic Media editor opens with a blank page and an Images and a Videos tab on the left menu. The Images tab is open. A text box says, Describe what you'd like to see. Enter 5 plus words you'd like to create. Below are style options each illustrated by a rubber ducky illustration in each style: none, filmic, watercolor, photo, dreamy, anime. (SPEECH) OK. So somebody with-- I mean, you all have great imaginations. I'm not going to say. But somebody, off the top of your head, give me an image you want to see. Or somebody from the chat even or online. Somebody online want to unmute and tell me what you're thinking? We got six minutes. [LAUGHTER] AUDIENCE: A Golden Retriever puppy running on the grass. AUDREY DIERDORFF: OK. (DESCRIPTION) She types in the text box. (SPEECH) Golden Retriever puppy running on the grass. OK, I'm going to go ahead and select at the bottom, Generate Image. You can tell that I was looking for rubber ducks. Don't ask me why. OK. So again, here's your four images. AUDIENCE: Remember, text is just the default. AUDREY DIERDORFF: [LAUGHS] AUDIENCE: The item there with rubber duck. AUDREY DIERDORFF: Oh, was it rubber duck? OK. (DESCRIPTION) Four slightly different images of golden retriever puppies running toward us in the grass appear. (SPEECH) Oh, look at that. Pretty good. AUDIENCE: [MUFFLED VOICES] AUDREY DIERDORFF: OK. So you can bring in the puppies that you want. (DESCRIPTION) She clicks on one of the puppies and it appears on the blank page. She drags a corner to make it larger. (SPEECH) You can size them. That's a pretty good photo of a puppy, huh? AUDIENCE: Really good. AUDREY DIERDORFF: So-- AUDIENCE: She's smiling. AUDREY DIERDORFF: Now, it does do some crazy stuff. (DESCRIPTION) She types in the text box below the four image choices. (SPEECH) So if I wanted to do something else-- so Golden Retriever puppy with a top hat and a black tuxedo running on water. OK? So I'm going to Generate Again. (DESCRIPTION) She clicks the Generate again button below. (SPEECH) Now that photo will end up in your uploads. So when you go to your Upload button on the far-left column, AUDIENCE: That image will be there. AUDREY DIERDORFF: Oh, look at that. (DESCRIPTION) Four new images appear of golden retriever puppies running toward us, wearing black top hats and bowties, some with a full tuxedo vest. (SPEECH) So I'm going to delete this one. I'm going to pull in this one. And it did really well, right? Pretty good? AUDIENCE: Hm-mm. Yeah. AUDIENCE: Can we put our phone image in and say, put a top hat and a tuxedo on my puppy? AUDREY DIERDORFF: No, no. Oh. So if I wanted to change something with the puppy, I could then use-- so if I click on the photo and edit photo-- OK? I could grab that puppy with Magic Grab. So (DESCRIPTION) She clicks the edit photo button from the top toolbar and a Magic Studio menu opens on the left with options such as BG Remover, Magic Eraser, Magic Expand, Magic Edit, Magic Grab, Grab Text. It has Filters options and Effects options below. (SPEECH) this is-- because we only have three minutes. Magic Grab. And it will take the puppy actually out of the water. (DESCRIPTION) She clicks Magic Grab. (SPEECH) And now you just have the puppy. (DESCRIPTION) She clicks the puppy and drags him independently all over the water background. (SPEECH) You see? So I'm going to get rid of the background. Assh! No, don't do that. (DESCRIPTION) She clicks the background and it disappears to show the white blank page. (SPEECH) Get rid of the background. Notice you just have the puppy. So that's Magic Grab, where you grab something out of the photo. And then you have this Magic Eraser. So you can erase things that you don't like. So (DESCRIPTION) She clicks magic eraser and the background behind the puppy turns to a checkerboard. (SPEECH) you increase the brush size. And I don't want him to have a tail. So I'm going to brush it out. (DESCRIPTION) She drags a purple circle to color over the dog's tail. (SPEECH) OK? And it will automatically delete it. (DESCRIPTION) The tail disappears. (SPEECH) So it's like your phone, how some of the phones have that AI stuff on it. And then there is-- delete photo. Magic Edit. So this thing, where I can actually take the brush. I'm just doing this real quick for everybody. And I'm going to brush off the hat. (DESCRIPTION) She uses a purple circle to color in the top hat. (SPEECH) And I can change it into something else. So I'm going to select Continue, describe what I want to put on his head. (DESCRIPTION) In the text box, she types, a rubber chicken. (SPEECH) I had put in a rubber chicken. And then I'm going to select Generate, and it should put a rubber chicken on top of his head because that's just the place I wanted it. And it's again with the four. [CHUCKLING] (DESCRIPTION) Four images of the dog's head appear in the left menu, each with very strange looking different rubber-chicken-like items. (SPEECH) AUDIENCE: Well, there you go. AUDREY DIERDORFF: That's interesting. AUDIENCE: Is that your choice? AUDREY DIERDORFF: I don't know. Yeah, this is interesting. So it's not the best, but you can do stuff like that. And then the last thing for editing photos-- one more minute-- is this Magic Expand. So if I want to expand the whole page, I can expand it. (DESCRIPTION) She clicks Whole Page. (SPEECH) And it will put in images or content that it thinks goes with the picture. (DESCRIPTION) The background remains white. (SPEECH) Oh, because I took the background. Well, anyways, you guys can play with it at home. We are-- yeah, we are down to the last 30 seconds. (DESCRIPTION) Text, Thank you! QR Code for slide presentation. https://bit.ly/49xjlQM. A cartoon avatar of Audrey holds a microphone and waves to us. A speech bubble above her reads, Signing Off. (SPEECH) Here it is. There's your Bitly. If you want to write down your Bitly for the presentation or scan the QR code, this is the presentation slide. And again, you can contact OTAN if you wanted more in depth about Canva. There are a couple of us that can come and present at your school site or do it online with your staff, if this is something that your staff wants to learn. There is a student type of interface. I wouldn't really use it because it takes a while to share things, but I've had people get on. And at the same time, we're editing the photos. We're editing everything together. So that's it.
