“photoshop isn’t the only tool you can use to create a video mockup!”

Mock ups are such a great way to utilize gorgeous photos to display your business. Whether it’s showcasing your latest blog post, giving awareness to the latest product in your shop, or even a sneak peek in your newest ebook! That’s why in today’s blog post we will be diving into adding a video to a screen mockup!

If you don’t already know, I’ve already created an article/video on how to add screenshots to mock ups. So, today we are diving into another way you can use mockups for your business and guess what you can do it all in Canva! I’m going to share with you how I did it on desktop and on the Canva app on my phone.

But first let me drop some stats on why you should consider video!

• Social media posts with video have 48% more views. (HubSpot)

• Social video generates 1200% more shares than text and image content combined. (G2 Crowd)

• Video promotions are now equally as popular as photo promotions on Facebook. (Socialbakers)

• Social video gets shared 1200% more than text and images combined. (Wordstream)

That’s some serious stats so now let’s get into making your 1st video mockup!

STEP 1: Record 5-10 seconds of your scroll (I use quick time on Mac ) 

STEP 2: Have your mockup already placed on your design the way you like it. I suggest a computer or laptop mockup.

STEP 3: Next under uploads, you will find two options (photos or videos) 

STEP 4: Choose Video and upload your video 

STEP 5: Wait until the image is uploaded and finished processing completely (this will take a few minutes)

STEP 6: Drop your image into your mockup and adjust it to fit

STEP 7: Download as video and add to your social media or website!
