Adding music to your Canva video can enhance the viewing experience for your audience, making your content more engaging and enjoyable. Thankfully, Canva makes this process quite straightforward and stress-free. Let’s dive into the steps you need to follow to add music to your Canva videos.
Step 1: Open Your Canva Video
Start by signing in to your Canva account. Navigate to the “All your designs” section, locate the video you want to edit, and click on it. If you haven’t created a video yet, you can do so easily by clicking on “Create a design” and selecting “Video”.
Step 2: Select the Music Tab
On the left-hand side of the editor, you’ll see a variety of tabs like Templates, Elements, Text, Music, and more. Click on the “Music” tab.
Step 3: Browse or Search for Music
Canva provides a library of free-to-use music. You can browse through the available tracks, or if you have something specific in mind, use the search bar to look for a particular type of music.
Step 4: Add Music to Your Video
Once you’ve selected a track you like, click on it. The music will be automatically added to your video. You will see it appear in the timeline at the bottom of your video.
Step 5: Editing the Music
After adding music to your Canva video, you may want to adjust its duration or volume:
- Adjusting Duration: Click on the music in the timeline. You’ll see blue handles at the start and end of the music bar. Drag these handles to adjust the duration.
- Adjusting Volume: Click on the music in the timeline. An option to adjust the volume will appear on the top menu. Move the slider to increase or decrease the volume.
Step 6: Save and Download Your Video
Once you’re satisfied with the inclusion and placement of the music, click on the “Download” button at the top right corner of the Canva workspace. Select the preferred video format, and click on “Download” again to save your video with the added music.
With these simple steps, you can significantly improve the quality of your Canva videos by adding music. Remember, the right track sets the perfect mood for your video, helping you connect better with your audience!
