Canva's free drag-and-drop design tools make it easy to create any design, fast! Start editing videos that look awesome and professional on any platform — whether it’s on a widescreen, tablet, or mobile device.

Here's what you can do!


Video timeline editing

Upload your own videos or use stock content. Easily drag and drop into a timeline view with proportional scenes that you can preview right in the editor.


Pre-licensed audio tracks

Upload your own audio or choose from over 25k licensed tracks and 89k sound effects. Add multiple tracks to your video timeline to set the mood or narrate your story.

Thousands of free templates and millions of video clips

Never run out of ideas with fully customizable templates, plus a library of free images, stock footage, icons, and graphics.


In-app recording

Record yourself and your screen directly in Canva and edit on the spot.


Text, overlays, and transitions

Easily add text, overlays, and titles, with cinematic transitions to move from one scene to another for a seamless, professional flow.


Page and element animations

Animate any element or even the whole frame with just a few clicks, with smart recommendations to pair the right animations together.


Split and splice

Split your video into multiple sections to quickly remove unnecessary footage or reorder your story.


Crop, resize, and flip

Seamlessly crop, resize (Canva Pro), or horizontally or vertically flip your video to suit your desired screen size or display output.
