Hi Sara! Can I use this program to add a countdown timer to a workout video. I've been searching everywhere! Thank you for the video.

This was great! I created a fully branded countdown timer with music and it works perfectly! I used two timers - 5 mins which I trimmed to 4:30 and a different 30-second one. Thank you for this tutorial.

Thank you so much for this video! It was such a huge help. I've seen other tutorials that use programs I don't own. So glad to see one done in Canva.

Much easier than another Canva countdown video I just saw. I knew it could be simpler! Thank you

This was exactly what I needed, thank you for this video! :-)

Great, easy to follow and execute tutorial. Thank you Sara! I too was totally unaware that Canva had so much more functionality and tools that I hadn't been using.

Firstly, thanks for the informative video content! Would anyone know how one can enable an automatic video clip to play in a pdf leaflet created in Canva? Meaning when I send out the leaflet to prospective clients I'd like the video clip to automatically count down as soon as they open the pdf (to give the sense of urgency "Sale Counter"). Thanks in advance. Cheers!

Hi Sara, thanks for the tutorial. Would it be possible to use for a specific date instead of minutes or seconds? Say a holiday timer?

Hi. thank u for this video. quick q for clarification: if we are monetising on KZread, will we get copyright claims if we use the music from streamyard? is there a way around that? and did we understand correctly, everytime we use the coutndown we need to make a new download for each episode?

Hey, Sarah. Thanks for this tutorial. It's really helpful. I have been using canva for a while and haven't caught on to this. I would love to ask if the background from the countdown video could be removed?

You can't remove the background of the video timer itself...but you can select your own background (from an image or photo, or video) and put the countdown timer video over that...

Thank you for this great tutorial! I'm starting my first stream tomorrow and this will be so useful! Sadly your hack doesn't seem to work for me 😣 The 10 minute timer doesn't show up for me for some reason

It would depend on the software they are using. They've most likely created an hour video that plays picture in picture if they are livestreaming. Or added it as an overlay if the video is recorded.

Having a good microphone makes a big difference. I'm a big fan of both Rode and Deity who I've used. Also with a guest..having headphones is essential.

I have tried this four times with no luck. When you shorten the timer to your desired timeframe, is that when you download it and then add it to other aspects of your project? I shortened it and then added it but it still shows 10 minutes. Help and thanks Sara.

Hello, is it possible to make a circle count down timer with canva? And you create these timers with Canva Pro, right?

This is my first time using canva and was SUPER helpful. I was hoping to add audio but only at the very end of my countdown, not throughout. Is that possible?

@SaraNguyen

3 жыл бұрын

Yes you can do this. You can add another video and then move the audio track to just cover the end of it.

Great tutorial ... but I seem to be having an issue. I'm trying to add a video behind the timer (like you did with galaxy), but it's only a 20 second video and I can't figure out how to make the video loop for the full 5 minutes.

How do I delay it so the timer pops up and countsdown after say 5secs of the video starting?

Most of these built-in timers are for short periods of time. I'm having a sale and I want the sale to run for 4 days. It seems a lot more difficult to make over a few hours. Thoughts?
