All right, today I'm going to show you the five quick ways to get started within video. So as you can see on the screen here, as you log in, you have three options when you want to start using a video. The first one is to convert an article to video. The second one is using a premade template, or the third one is right here. If you're an advanced video editor, then you could start from scratch. But for the purpose of this demo, let's go ahead and start with the one that most people will use which is the pre made templates.
So for the second step, I want you to just have a look on the left hand side of the screen which is the sidebar. This is where you can choose the type of video that you want to create. And as you can see, as you click through it will show you the types of videos in that category. So you have so many here you can scroll down. And I can tell you ever since I've joined in video a few months ago, this catalogue of this library has grown a huge and then they've just added more and more things every single day, there's more categories every single day. So you're bound to find something that would fit your needs.
So let's just go ahead and go to the third step of getting started with imagery, which is selecting the type of video of message that will suit your brand. So I'm going to choose one of the basic templates here, which is the brand essentials. And you have here a brand intro intro reveal where you could put in your logo, and you know all sorts of other fit templates I'm going to choose for this demo this specific template. So when you select it, you could see a preview of the whole thing you can listen to the audio and you could also So see the different formats there has. So let's say we're choosing a square format. So you can see how that changes to adapt to that size.
And say if you weren't ready to use it right now, you could just click the favorite button and it's gonna be kind of like a little bookmark. So you could go back to it in your favorites menu and and come to it again. But well for this demo, let's just get started. So for the fourth step is for you to choose the elements that would suit your brand. So let's say that your brand colors aren't quite the same as this one. And you want to change it around.
So let's say your brand color is, I don't know maybe this green here. So you just change the you select Custom and the change project colors here. And then you change the color in here. So say yellow is the other color, so you're not going to change that. But say for instance, you see that from these three scenes here, the color hasn't changed to that green, that means that it's selecting that color. So instead, let's move that selection to this custom color to see now that's changed.
And you could change this one to the yellow. So as you can see here, now it's more looks like more of your brand. So say if you're not your service isn't quite the same as this template and you're say, a personal trainer, then that means you're gonna have to change some of the elements in this video, say for instance, this video clip. So if you just look in the media here, if you click here, you can either upload your own video by clicking uploads, and then upload videos. Before this demo, we're going to select a video from Thought library and there's loads of little clips in this thought library that you could choose from. And you don't have to just choose video, you could even choose images.
Then in this demo, we're going to choose a video. So let's say, let's find a clip of a personal trainer. So here you see a few clip that's relevant to personal training. I think I'm gonna choose this one, what I'll do is just select it and then I'll drop it right here. And then it's gonna ask me whether I want to replace or add behind or add its layer, so I'm just gonna replace it. Once you kind of drop it in, you have to then choose how long you want the clip to play.
I'm gonna choose four seconds. Once you've done that, you just click Done. And then you can preview it and see how this resolves. So it looks okay but it doesn't look so good in terms of where the subject position so to move her in a more appropriate position, we could just click video edit when you're selecting this video, and then click crop frame. So here you can see you could move this slightly and I was also want to squeeze it slightly so it's a bit smaller and then more focused on the subject. I think that looks okay, then click Done.
And then now it's repositioned itself. And I think that's all right, I might want to bring her sort of around up here to match where the text starts, I'm going to move again and make it even a little bit more smaller. So she's roughly at the same height as the text. Okay, so now you see there's, it looks more balanced, doesn't it? So let's click Preview again. All right, that looks better.
So now you want to change the text. Obviously, we're not a barber anymore, we're a personal trainer. So let's say try our personal training today. So you just go here in the text area, and they could you type Personal Training, personal training today. So just so you know, in order to get that kind of green text, what you do is you just highlight it and then click highlight and then that text will change to the green. If you don't want to use just highlight it again here and then unclick highlight and it'll go back.
And then once you're done, you click Save. Also, you could change the font that is being used here. I'm just gonna leave it for now. You can also change the colors and to change the colors you could also change the animation, the in and out animation. You could also change the textbook Animation also the same in and out, but for now we're just gonna leave it as is. We can also change the transitions here by clicking here from transition is what happens between between two sweet scenes.
So you can either choose any of these, let's say you can see a preview of it as well. So I'm gonna choose stack zoom. And for this one I'm gonna choose Yeah, choose that one. Okay, now let's preview again. Alright, so it looks good. So let's export the video.
So now we just wait for it to be processed. In the meantime, we could name the project. ABC fitness. Run promo code can also duplicate it if you want if you want to change it. So as you can see here, we've just finished processing the video and then you can download it here by clicking this button. Or you could share it straight to your social media platforms.
So let's just open it and see how it looks like
