Canva rolls out new AI video clip feature powered by Google's Veo 3 model
Canva is bringing Google's latest and most advanced AI video generation model to its platform.
The design software company announced on Thursday, June 19, that users will be able to tap into Veo 3 through a newly launched Canva AI feature called 'Create a Video Clip' in order to generate an eight second-long video clip with sound.
With this feature powered by Veo 3, users will be able to easily turn their pitch deck opener or social media post into an AI-generated video teaser. The Create a Video Clip feature is accessible from the Canva homepage. It is available to Canva Pro, Teams, and Enterprise subscribers as well as Canva Nonprofit users.
However, users will be restricted to five AI-generated videos every month for the time being.
'We're one of the first platforms to integrate Google's Veo 3 video generation model, just weeks after its debut. Create a Video Clip makes this advanced technology accessible to millions on Canva, empowering anyone to produce dynamic, polished videos with high-quality visuals, realistic motion, and synchronized audio,' Danny Wu, the head of AI products at Canva, said in a blog post.
The 'Create a Video Clip' feature is also available for paid users of Leonardo AI, the generative AI content and research platform acquired by Canva last year.
Follow these steps to create an AI-generated video using the Create a Video Clip feature that is powered by Google's Veo 3 model:
– Go to Canva AI from the homepage or sidebar
– Select Create a Video Clip
– Enter a prompt based on the video you want to generate
– The video will open in Video Editor where you can fine-tune it using Canva tools such as Brand Kit to add text, music, etc.
'From there, it can also be copied into other design formats – whether it's a social post presentation, or campaign asset,' Canva said.
In order to prevent the generation of harmful content, Canva said that its new feature is protected by Canva Shield, which is designed to moderate the inputs and outputs from these tools.
Canva on Wednesday also revealed plans to acquire an AI-powered creative intelligence platform called MagicBrief as the company looks to broaden the scope of its AI tech stack.
Earlier this year, Canva introduced its all-new Visual Suite 2.0, which includes an AI coding tool, a voice-enabled AI feature, and an AI-powered spreadsheet generator. Magic Studio and Canva AI have been used over 18 billion times so far, the company revealed.
