 Okay, so going back to creating Toastmaster branded content, if you go to resources, you will find brand portal and this is a go to site whenever we want to create any content. You will find all the elements that you need, the brand manual, which is your guide, download the manual and it tells us important considerations whenever we want to create content, guidelines of what kind of photos and images that we can use, what kind of logos and what kind of colors, starting with logo, how you must place the logo, how you must keep some space around the logo, we call it the breathing space, where to download the logo from. So you can see that there are different logos that we can download and use. Okay, so if I want to say, for example, color logo, so I can save this on my PC and then use it wherever you want it. Next, we talk about colors, what kind of colors we can use. They call it true maroon, loyal blue, cool gray and happy yellow. So these are the four colors that we can use in our poster in addition black and white. So in total, we can use six colors in any content that we create. And when we say maroon, it's not just any maroon, you should note down this color code small card like this. I always keep it on my desk whenever I want to refer to it. And on this card, I have all the color codes that I need. You can then create content with this three colors. And this is called the accent color. It should not be used as the main color. It should be used for accent, like highlighting something. So these are your three main colors. And this is the fourth color. And then we have black and white. In addition to that, you have fonts. There are only two fonts we can use. One is called the Gotham font. But in Kenwa, we don't have this Gotham font. So instead of Gotham, we have to use Montserrat. The second font you'll use is Myriad Pro. But again, Kenwa doesn't have Myriad Pro, but we have an alternative. And that is called Source Sans Pro. Four colors and black and white, two fonts, and then the photographs. What kind of photographs you can use? Please do not use cartoons, illustrations, clip art. We have to use photographs. It should be about people. People who look engaged, empowered, supported in a meeting, in a networking environment. So having this simple knowledge, let's go to Kenwa. If you go to kenwa.com, it's like Facebook. You go to a website and create an account. And you have a homepage like this, where you can create different kinds of posters. First of all, see all your designs that you have already created. But if I want to create something from the beginning, so I will use this option, Create a Design. We can create posters for different kinds of situations. So that's why we have what we call this dimensions, based on what you are creating. So for example, if you're creating a poster that you want to post on Instagram, we know that Instagram is square size. That's why you can see here 1080 by 1080. What I'm going to do is I'm going to create a post for Instagram. So as you can see, the shape of this design is square. First of all, we talk about the color of this poster. And I want the background of this image to be let's say one of those three colors. I wouldn't advise this color as your background because this is not a primary color. For this background, I can use the blue, the maroon, gray, and white. Even though I said black is a color, I wouldn't recommend using it as a background. How do I get these colors precisely? If I want to change the color of any object or even the background, you see here, you click on it. If you want to precisely enter the code, again, remember the code that I had given which we found in the brand manual, you can just type it here. For example, if I was to look at maroon, and I know that maroon says 772432. It shows you that this code 772432 is this color. If you want to save these colors, there is a way you can do that. And the way to do that is you go to home, you can see here something called brand kit. And you can see that you can add brand palette in your free version. If you can add up to three colors, going back to my blank form. The next thing of course you want to do is you want to place the logo. For the logo, you will find it in the Toastmaster website, resources, brand portal, and logos. You have different logos. You can choose one that you like. And when it comes to logos, my suggestion used to always use PNG files, not the JPG. We download the file. You can save it on a desktop. When I go to Canva, and I want to place the logo here, I have saved it on my desktop, right? So all I have to do is I have to go to uploads and bring that logo from the desktop to Canva. So all you have to do is click uploads, upload an image or video from the device. On my desktop here. And it will bring the logo here. Now, all I have to do is click it. So we can resize it to be the right size and a logo is done. Next, you want the name of the club. You can just type it, or you can use one of the element. Click See All to see all these kinds of shapes that you want. Choose the one that looks good and resize it. So you have your shape now. You can go to the left, choose text, and you can choose any text from here. Add heading. This is where I'll put the club name. And the first thing we need to remember is that the font that we want to type, we have Gotham, but we don't have Gotham in Canva. So we said for headings, we can use Montserrat. You have this option here, the font name. What we can do is we can click this arrow down here and type the name. And it brings me this Montserrat options. So you can choose Montserrat, semi-bold, extra-bold. Since it's a club name, I will choose Montserrat, extra-bold. And I can say, so obviously that's too big. That's very easy to change. I can either use this dropdown to choose the font size, but in Canva, it's much more easier than that. You select the object and it will automatically resize for you, like this. As you can see, if you hold this with the arrow key, if you hold it and you can move it around, and it does something very interesting, these boxes and lines start appearing. They have a meaning actually. If I put it here, and if I start moving it around, it will show me that now the box is centered around the yellow area. You can see that red line coming in there, okay? If I move it a little higher, a cross comes. That means it is centered now vertically, as well as horizontally within that area. Based on these guides, you can position your text very precisely. If you want to add more text, select any of this object. When you drop it, make sure that the font from here changes to source sans pro. These are the only two fonts that we can use in our poster. This, for example, I want to say theme. You typed it. We follow the same idea of increasing or decreasing the size by moving it and resizing it. Use the guides to move your object. One thing I want to tell you all is, whenever you all put something next to the logo, make sure that there is enough space around the logo. This would be wrong because there is no space between the logo and my shape. There needs to be some breathing space as defined in the brand manual, something like this. In this theme now, we can make it bold, talic. You can use any of these colors on a white background. Let's say the blue. My recommendation is black, blue, and maroon. But what if I have a shape that is dark in color? Triangle, like this. But I'm showing only part of the triangle and giving an interesting shape to this. And now let's say this shape, I want to make it maroon. Whenever you're putting text on the dark color and put something here, zoom ID, let's say. And again, remember, you can resize it. We can move it around and then I can make it bold. And here, what are the colors I can use when it is a dark color? My recommendation is when you are writing on the dark color, use white or gray or yellow. If it is blue, it is not contrast enough. You can't read it. Light colors on dark and dark colors on white. So we have the semblance of a brand compliant poster already. Visuals are very important. And that's the last part I want to talk about. What kind of pictures can we put? Let us look at the photos that are already in Canva. Millions of photos, by the way. You can use photos from Canva, provided they follow the branding guidelines of people. That's the first thing. This should be about people. People who are engaged in a networking environment or giving speeches, that's the type of photos. If I was to search for Canva stock photos where you are talking about meeting. A photo like this, in my opinion, is perfectly acceptable. Because here we have people who are looking engaged and networking, talking to each other. That's the kind of emotion that a Toastmaster poster should convey. Or you can go to Toastmaster website. In the resources, in the brand portal, we have professional images that you can download and use. And they're free to use. Maybe over 100 photos that you can use. Branded photos. All these photos are brand compliant. These are Toastmaster photos. You will find some branding already in the photo. The Toastmaster banner. Maybe they are wearing pins. So if I want to use any of this photo, so I go here and let's say I want this one. When you look at the photo, at the bottom you will find this button here. Small arrow and you click on it. You can download it and it will come here on my local drive. Now I have the photo on my desktop, going back to Canva. And I want to put the Toastmaster branded photo, not the one from Canva, which is already available here. So I go to uploads, like I did for the logo. Upload an image or video from the device, the photo that I just downloaded. And you can drag it and put it here. One thing I want to show you is when you put a photo, I want this other object that I had created on top of it. So if I click on this photo here and if I see this option position, if I move backwards, what happens is that the photo goes behind the other object can start putting more content and your poster is done. And the other thing about photos that I won't tell you about is when you're putting these photos, we have seen that we could take photos from Canva, but mostly bring them from Toastmasters and the third option for posters. And that's the best option in my opinion. When we used to have physical meetings, I used to take my camera for every meeting. And I used to take pictures of people giving speeches. There is always a photo at the end of the meeting. Those are the best photos to be used in your poster. So now I have time for 10 minutes question. Questions in the chat box. Is there any platform online to remove background of a picture? I'll give you a good example here itself. I try to use this photo of TM Allen Paul. You see there is a shade, which is not white. Now to change that, and if I want to remove the background from this, I will go to a site called remove.bg. It's a free website. You don't have to pay anything for it. Just upload the image. You have a photo without a background and I can download it back to Canva. So this is with the shade. I'll remove all of them. And I will upload the one which I have just created from remove.bg. As you can see, there is no background for it. If I place it here now, you can see that the shade is gone. Any other question? How can we reduce the transparency of a picture? Every object that you have in Canva, you will find an option here called transparency. So you can apply transparencies for anything, but in Terce Masters, be careful. Don't apply transparencies for objects which have specific colors. For example, if I have this color and I apply a transparency, it's no longer Maroon color. It has changed the color code to something else. So transparencies can't be applied here. Transparencies can't be applied to your text because again, the color is changing. You can apply transparencies to your photos. You can't apply transparencies to your logo. So you are limited to where you can use transparencies by the way. But in the flyer you have made for this session, there is one called from red to white going like a gradient. Yeah, ideally I should not have used it. This is the one you're talking about. There is only one gradient which I can confidently give you my go ahead. First of all, let me show you how to create the gradient objects. So if you go to elements, one more element I would like to show you is something called frames, which is quite cool. If you want to, especially for photographs, so if I have this photograph and I don't want it just like this, but I want it inside a frame. You have so many frames we can use. So simple frame is like a circle. Once you place a frame, if you place any objects inside that frame like a photo, it will stick within that circle or you can have elements, something like this and then go and upload the image and it will come within that. And once it is inside, you can use the option crop which allows you to move it around, resize it. So it will come like that. But what I was going to talk about is gradients. What is gradient? You take an object. This is what I had used. And you can see once you drop a gradient, it gives you two colors, color one, color two. Click on color one and let's say I won't make it blue and color two, then I click on color two and let's say I make it another color. So this has now is a gradient of two branded Toastmaster colors, but the object itself is not brand compliant because from here to here, all these colors are different colors, essentially. They are not one color. There is only one gradient that is acceptable is to have blue as the first color and the second is a special color and the code for that is 016094. And it creates a kind of a shade of blue. They have officially allowed us to use this gradient. Next question is dimension of the picture. How could you modify light to post in FB, Insta, so like if it's, can we modify the dimensions? That is a question. In my case, if I want to resize, I can do it. Because I have a pro account, I can use this option called resize, but allow me to resize to let's say a Facebook post. And I have two options. I just resize this, what I have created or I create a copy. So I keep my original and I say copy and resize and it'll give me another copy. Now you can see that it has resized all the elements. It has made the canvas more of a HD resolution, but then you'll have to play around and fix a few things, but you may have to do some fine tuning. When we make posters for our clubs, should we make it as an Instagram post? I advise Instagram post because once you create it as an Instagram post, it works in everywhere. Instagram, the square size works for Instagram. It works fine for Facebook. It works fine for WhatsApp. So that's why I do all my posters mostly square in size. So let's ask after I finish all the design, how I can save it? Very good question. I should have covered that. So our poster is done now. So I have here download and we can download it in different types. You can download it as a PNG, JPG. You can even download it as a PDF file if you want. PNG is the recommended because it gives you the highest quality as far as quality is concerned. Download. Now, if I'm on WhatsApp, I want to send it to Dr. Asha. I click attach. See what I meant when I said a square poster looks just right on WhatsApp. This is what I meant. So yeah, that's how you download it. Thanks for reminding me to show you how to download the poster. Just master, how can we pull in all the GMA colors? You have to go to the brand kit. So this is the brand palette. So when you come here in the brand kit and you come to the brand palette, you can click this plus sign and type the code directly. Can somebody tell me what is the color for blue? It's 004165. You'll find it in the brand manual that I have referred to, right? That's it. Then I have the maroon is 772432 done. Then I have gray, which is A9B2B1. Everybody is now clear with Gamba and poster designing. I hope you found it useful and I certainly enjoyed it. Thank you very much. It was clear and direct to the point. Thank you.
