Create a Free Premium Account on Canva to Create Videos with Canva AI
To create an account on Canva, go to canva.com and click on the Sign Up button in the upper right corner, as shown in the attached screenshot. After clicking the Sign Up button, a form will appear on your screen. You will be given five different ways to create an account on Canva, including signing up with Google, Facebook, email, or your organizational email.

From there, you have to select the ‘Sign up with your work email’ option. Canva.com will ask you to provide your work email, and if you enter your university email, it will send an OTP to that email. You must verify your email by entering the OTP in the system. This will create a free premium account for you to use on Canva.

After completing this signup process, this is the time to create an AI generated video in just a few seconds.
Steps to Create Videos with Canva AI
Please follow these steps to generate an AI Video for you:
1. Select a Video Size from Canva Dashboard
On the Canva dashboard, you will see various size options based on the category names in which your graphic design falls. You need to select ‘Video,’ and from there, choose the platform for which you are creating the video. This will open a blank white page of the same size you selected.

On the left-side menu bar, select the Magic Media option, then go to Videos, as shown in the screenshot below. Canva will ask you to provide a plot for the video. You need to describe what you want in your video. You can use Google, ChatGPT, or other content generation tools to find an idea for your video. After clicking Generate Video, a perfectly AI-generated video will be ready for you to download.
