Editing videos in Canva is an easy task. The free platform offers editable art templates with videos for sharing on social networks and messengers. The productions have varied styles, like overlapping phrases and other elements. The suggested excerpts can be modified by scenes offered by Canva or by videos stored on the user's computer and the finished file can be shared via a link, or downloaded to the PC and later sent to friends on Facebook, Twitter, WhatsApp and other services.
