Video

I'm so glad! Do tell any author friends who might find it useful.

Hi, no. The blur doesn't dynamically move with the video. You'd have to chop the video up and move the blur for each clip.

Thank you! Please share with anyone who might find it useful. (PS. I love the book title too. It was my editor's suggestion!).

Hooray. I'm so glad it was useful. If you know someone else who would find it useful, please tell them about it!

If you mean text based books like novels, non fiction etc, then you can use a free converter like Draft2Digital's formatter to get the book into the format (ebook or print) that Amazon needs. If you mean print books - there are lots of different size options available. You can choose what size you want the book to be, just make sure you choose the right size from Amazon's drop down menu. I walk through the process of uploading a paperback book to KDP in a different video: czcams.com/video/OEveLVBVMzc/video.html

I'll definitely look into it. I could do with tidying up my files too!

I'm assuming you mean a video of the Speed Paint that you've done before (rather than using the app live every time you). I don't know what you'd change in the Speed Paint app (especially if you haven't ticked 'play on repeat'), but perhaps you could try a work around. See how many seconds the Speedpain bit runs for, then set the time the SLIDE is on screen to match. Then, if you need the completed image to remain on screed, add a new slide after the speedpaint slide with the completed image (static) on for however long you need. So if the speed paint takes 5seconds, you set the timing of slide 1 to 5 seconds as well. Then (if you need to) put slide 2 in with the fully painted image in for a few seconds. Does that solve the problem?

​@@jeevanicharika Thanks!!!

Glad it was useful. Do tell any author friends who would find it useful.

You're welcome. I'm glad it was useful.

That's brilliant. I'm so glad it was useful! Do tell all your author friends.

Glad you like it. Are you going to try it?

@@jeevanicharika That’s the plan.

Thank you. I saw it first on @RenoNadiandy's channel, I think. It's much easier than the old method.

Thank you!

Glad it was helpful!

Thank you!

Thank you!

Your tip was great!

Fab, thank you!

Cool, right?

You're welcome!

You are most welcome! I'm glad it was clear and easy to follow.

You only need what you need, right? I'm a massive nerd, so I like playing with the animations and things.

It was a bit weird, wasn't it. A lot of the 'new' features weren't actually new. I suspect they were aiming to wow the corporate audience, not us.

PS: If you have early access, but want to use the old interface, you can turn the glow up off and on again through a toggle switch in the Settings.

@@jeevanicharika happy using the new one

I had covered making a 3D mockup in an earlier video. czcams.com/video/wlpYLgVvXKo/video.html (Although, the trope graphic would work with a 2D image too ...)

I'm really excited about it. It makes the effect SO much quicker and easier to do.

That’s so annoying. Canva is rolling out some updates at the moment, so maybe that’s making things glitchy. Let’s hope it gets sorted out soon.

@@jeevanicharika hoping so as wellll

Especially if you’re like me and always only spot things after you’ve finished recording.

Thanks. I'm glad it's useful.

Cool, isn't it?! I'm so glad it worked for you. Please tell all your writer friends. :-)

In theory, yes. You can blur out portions of a video, but you can't do it in the same way. You'd need to use blur elements placed over parts of the video.

@@jeevanicharika YES thanks for your reply, i tried and is ok

Glad you liked it!

You're welcome

Thank you!

You're welcome! I'm so glad it's useful. Please tell all your writer friends!

You're welcome.

That's true. Thanks.

Thank you!

Glad it was useful!

It's so good!

That would take a lot more than one tutorial. We have some free resources on writing fiction at fictiontutors.co.uk/low-cost-and-free-resources/

Thank you! Please tell any writer friends who might find it useful!

It's been around for a while, but there was some doubt as to whether Google picked the sites up. It seems that it does, but I still don't know if it's any good for SEO. The sites are very pretty though. I made one for a give away - use a bitly link rather than my own website. It worked fine.

This is a way to do it using only Canva (which is the focus of this channel). If you want to do it 'properly', you could try something like Photoshop, which is the gold standard for image manipulation.

Glad to have helped.

Yup. They say it will be back, but no indication of when.

@@jeevanicharika it is unfortunate. Anyway, great video and lovely presentation. Thoroughly enjoyed it 😊

Thank you!
