USING CANVA PT1

 

Welcome back, reader!

    This week in class we learned to use Canva. It was definitely an experience, there are so many different things you can use to edit, create and use. We did seven lessons in total and today I'm gonna talk about my experience with Canva. 

    The first lesson we did was fairly easy, I've used editing apps or websites before so I have some experience with using this things. We created a flyer and I tried to get creative and add different elements and pictures that fit into the narrative of Cambridge. For example, I added a build to resemble a school, also I added books and school supplies. We also learned to add videos to your page, this is a great advantage specially when it comes to making presentations for class. One of the activities included creating a collage, this is such a great thing to use, it really helps with adding multiple pictures and putting it as one. This could really help me when creating my magazine. We also learned about frames I think this is such a unique way to edit photos, it definitely makes it more appealing and interesting.

    Lesson 2, the activity required for me to take a picture of myself and then crop only my face. I felt very embarrassed to this specially in class but nevertheless I did it. I think learning to crop photos can be useful. For example, interviewing someone and need a picture of them I can then use this skill. 

    For lesson 3, it was sort of the same thing except it was a video and not a photo. Also we had to crop the video, I found this helpful, sometimes you record videos and need to edit it and on Canva its really easy to do.
