- Welcome to the final episode
in our series on video editing for social media.
You've made a video, you've added audio,
you've popped in some animations and transitions,
so how do you know when it's ready
to share with the world?

Hi, I'm Tiana,
a Product Marketing Manager for video at Canva.
In this episode, we're gonna talk about
sharing video content on your social channels
using our content planner.
Let's get started.
So far we've covered why video content rules online,
the basics of video editing and creating with confidence,
and more advanced video editing skills
to create content to impress,
and now we are ready for our final chapter.
Now that you've made a video,
how do you know when it's ready to share with the world?
Here's Jess with tips on reviewing your design.
Quick hint, it's all about those design principles
we mentioned earlier
- Today you've made a great Instagram reel,
but I encourage you all to experiment more
with our video templates.
Before you share,
the three final questions you can ask yourself
as you review your videos are,
do the colors fit the tone of my message?
Do the colors match the color of my brand?
Does the mood or tone convey my message?
Think about the personality of your brand message,
for example, you wouldn't put a dark noir style film
to promote a children's ball pit room, would you?
Once you're happy your design meets all the criteria,
you're ready to share your video with the world.
There are a few ways to do this,
let's take a look.
First up, you can go ahead and download it,
you can do this from the share button
in the top right hand corner of the screen.
Now if you download it,
make sure you set file type to MP4,
so that it saves with the animation
rather than a static image,
this is perfect for posting to Instagram stories.
The next option is to share it as a watch link,
tap the share button again
in the top right corner of the editor,
select share link to watch,
and voila, you can copy.
Now, sharing as a link is perfect
if you don't wanna wait around for your design to download,
especially if you don't need to upload it to post.
Good examples are sending via WhatsApp,
posting on Facebook or Twitter.
When people click the link,
they'll see your design in Canva's video player,
much like playing a video on YouTube.

- [Speaker] Clementine is 100% juice,
and 0% anything else.
- [Jess] Now the final way to share your design is
by scheduling it to post.
This is a Pro feature,
and is great if you wanna post something
to social media later,
and you can simply create, set, and forget.
If you have Canva Pro or Canva for Teams,
all you need to do is scroll through the share menu,
pick a time, pick a channel,
write a caption, connect it to your account,
and it will be automatically posted
at the time and day you've selected.
- We're nearly done,
but we do have a final challenge for you,
to take everything you've learned today
and make a design in the next 24 hours.
We would love to see it.
Post it to Instagram, and tag us with #madeincanva,
or share on our Design Circle group.
If you're not already a member,
make sure you sign up to Canva Design Circle
