where I'm going to share my screen and
show you how to make PNG files and logos
right in canva for free ok so I'm
sharing my screen now so I can show you
how you can get the PNG logos or text or
type of symbols that you want to use in
your videos or any type of picture so
I'm going to explain this real quick and
show you some things I do get questions
sometimes for an example if you watch
this video in this part you see how my
name comes up right right there with the
Instagram logo next to me and there's no
background on it so it's nice that's
called a PNG file and I created that and
don't worry you don't need Photoshop I
do show sometimes Photoshop videos
because I have Photoshop but I'm going
to show you a hack that I have if you
don't have Photoshop not to worry about
it so let's jump into this I'm gonna
show you how to make these so what you
want to do is go over to Google and look
for canva and when you find canva you're
gonna click on it and I'm just going to
open up my canva he has canva and what
you want to do is scroll through the
designs after you sign
for canva it's free scroll through their
free designs and go over to logo and you
want to click on this this is really
easy to use I'm going to use this free
one right here then what I'm gonna do is
I'm going to click just click in here
and I'm gonna just put my name let's say
let's say I want my name James Cook and
then what I'll do is right here you see
this arrows when I hover over here I
just gonna pull it pull it until my name
is full and then what I'll do is I'm
gonna move actually this up because I'm
gonna get rid of this yellow click on
and then hit delete now I bring this
back down to the center I also don't
want this let me get rid of that and
then what I'm gonna do is what many of
you don't realize is you could go over
to Google and find certain things so for
an example when I have that Instagram
logo I'll just go Instagram logo and I
make sure I put PNG we want it to be a
PNG file so let's go look at images I'll
click on this one now you'll notice that
checkered background that's because it's
PNG so you could see through it so I
want this so now you could do this with
anything if you want the YouTube PNG
logo next to your name keep that in mind
if you want a picture of like flowers or
anything you could find that there's a
life you google it there's a lot of
different types of things that you could
find that are already PNG and now I'm
gonna right click on this and click save
image as and what I'm looking for you
see this format make sure that says
portable network graphics image this is
PNG so now I know that it's a PNG I'm
gonna click save it download it to my
desktop so I know it's there and then
what I'm gonna do is go back into canva
I'm going to move this over to the right
because what I'm gonna try to do is get
it into here now I know I already have
it in here what you would do is you're
just going to upload and you see I
already have a PNG file of it in here
already so what I'm gonna show you what
you would do it just click upload image
there it is click on it click open right
and then it's going to load and you'll
see this blue as it's loading so what it
does once it loads what you would simply
do is just drag it over just like that
and then go to the corner
and you want to just size it how big you
want it so I think about that should be
good then I'll drag it next to it I
don't like this font so I'm gonna
highlight this and up here is where the
fonts are and there's a lot of fonts
once you find one that you like I'm just
gonna pick the next one I pick I'm just
going to use so that we don't waste any
time here we go so what I'll do is I'll
just pull this over again that's how you
drag it and make it wider and I'll make
it a little smaller and I'll go down a
little bit all right I lined it up where
I want it let's say I want it there
perfect okay so there it is now this is
my little logo I have now what we need
to do is convert this into a PNG file
because we don't want the white
background and I'm gonna show you why
let me go back to my video let me see if
I dragged it in here yet no so I'm
actually gonna drag what it should not
look like and I'm gonna show you why and
now I'm using this in my videos like
this but you could also use this on your
images like you Tinley if you're
creating an image in candle you could
you know use this as as well you could
put this type of file over any type of
background that you want so keep that in
mind as well but I want to show you what
it shouldn't look like okay so you see
this file here it says PNG but let me
show you why it's not and I'm gonna come
in here and just go picture-in-picture
you notice look the whites there we
don't want that white there even if I
make it bigger see the white background
we don't want that and I'm going to show
you how to fix that so right now that's
what we would have right now my name the
logo I want but I want to don't want it
to be a clear background now went in
canva how they get you is now once
you're ready you download this but how
they get you is see how it says PNG if
you click transparent background they
want you to buy you know put your credit
card in blah blah so I'm just gonna
click maybe later
right right so we can't pick transparent
backgrounds so what we're going to do is
we're going to leave it on P and PNG
high-quality image right but since we
can't do transparent background we're
going to download it you just click
download once it downloads to your
desktop this is what you're going to do
you're going to go over to
other site called Luna pick LUN apic is
another free site what you're gonna do
is come over here and click upload we're
going to choose a file we're gonna
choose this file with the white
background so when you get it into when
you upload it into Luna pic right it's
gonna look like this what you want to do
is go over to edit transparent
background managing an image background
transparent click on the color to make
transparent I want to make all the white
transparent so I click on the white and
look at that you see now it's becoming a
PNG file this is all done for free I'm
gonna click apply
okay so now it's ready to go what I want
to do next is now that I have it with
the transparent background on you can
see it go over to file and save image
save as PNG and it's downloaded to my
desktop let me open this image now as
you can see this is what it should look
like now if I drag that image into my
imovie it's not gonna look like this
it's going to be this see that's how you
get rid of it that's how you do it for
free that's using canva and Luna pick
get your canva get you free get your
free account with canva now remember
you're not gonna be able to do it in
canva unless you sign up for their
30-day trial put your credit card
whatever but you don't have to pay for
it I'm showing you a hack you don't have
to pay for it
just download the file after you make it
however you want you can put whatever
you want in here just make sure that
you're using any logo make sure that
you're using a PNG file of it could get
that through Google like I got this
Instagram one right on Google if you
wanted flowers go over to Google get
flowers let's let me just show you this
so you really understand
let's see flower logo page so if I
wanted something like this so just right
click save image as make sure note the
format this is not a good format it
looks like it would be sometimes you're
gonna see this and this is not going to
work
JPEG image no cancel that and I'm glad
that happens I could show you let's see
the
this one's nope.jpg it needs to say the
PNG let's look at another one save image
as yes
portable Network graphics this would
work I download this save I'd go into
canva I'd click upload upload image open
the flowers it's going to load in here
drag those flowers over here and what I
could do here too is if I want the
flowers to be behind I can actually make
them go behind so position backwards see
now my name and logo are over those
flowers what would I do all I have to do
is come here download PNG yep click on
that remember when I click on
transparent background here because
they're gonna try to charge us and we
just click download preparing your
design and see what its gonna do okay so
once you download it right what do we
have to do we have to bring it into Luna
pic so I'm gonna put upload I'm in Luna
pic choose a file there it is
open come back over to edit transparent
background click the white boom you
notice that there's still white in here
you can actually touch it up with the
eraser tool and I'll show you what I
mean so I just clicked on the eraser
tool and I want to get something really
small and you see how I'm doing that you
could touch it up with the eraser tool
to get rid of this white cuz this white
shouldn't really be here and again you
could zoom in I'm just doing this really
quick so you get the point right you see
how I'm touching that up also in here
and there if you want again I could be
here forever doing this but if I really
wanted to get it everything perfect I
could just go through here right you get
the point
touching it up with the eraser tool but
that's how you're gonna make the
background transparent then
go to file save image save as PNG it's
downloading I'm gonna go over to my
iMovie I'm gonna open up iMovie let's
say I wanted that right here what I'll
do is open up my finder this should be
the one actually yep and that's how you
know when you pull it in here if it
turns black like that that's how you
kind of can tell that it's the PNG file
and again then I would make it bigger
you see I mean that looks hideous but I
just wanted to show you how you could
just add different artworks again we're
using the Luna pic after we use canva
that's the freeway hope that helps you
so I hope that step-by-step tutorial
really helped you out and now you can go
and make your own type of PNG files
logos your names any type of text you
want to make you can make right in there
in canva that little trick in hack I
showed you at Luna pic will actually
work hand-in-hand together to make those
PNG files so that they're transparent
remember you want them to be real PNG
files even if you're getting logos from
Google I hope this tutorial helps you
