[Auto-generated transcript. Edits may have been applied for clarity.]
Okay, well, we are at 3:00, so we will go ahead and get started.

2
00:00:03,802 --> 00:00:07,802
Thank you all so much for being here today. Um, I'm Dr. Chelsy Hooper.

3
00:00:07,822 --> 00:00:11,782
I'm an instructional technology coordinator here in the main library.

4
00:00:11,992 --> 00:00:17,061
My main area of work is in the Adobe Creative Space, which is on the first floor of the library.

5
00:00:17,062 --> 00:00:26,332
So downstairs, uh, and by the glass, um, elevator area and the stairs go down one floor and you'll be there in the Adobe creative space.

6
00:00:26,632 --> 00:00:34,192
Um, so it's our mission to help students, faculty, and staff learn how to use the Adobe Creative Cloud applications.

7
00:00:34,552 --> 00:00:42,042
Um, today we will be getting started in Adobe Express, which is web based, but you also get access to a whole lot of other apps.

8
00:00:42,052 --> 00:00:51,441
So today is really about getting you acclimated to all of the things that you have access to through Adobe Creative Cloud and also getting,

9
00:00:51,442 --> 00:00:58,222
uh, doing some beginning projects in Adobe Express, which is web based drag and drop interface.

10
00:00:58,222 --> 00:01:05,212
If you've used something like Canva before. This is very similar, but it's better because it's within the Adobe ecosystem.

11
00:01:05,542 --> 00:01:09,351
Um, and you have premium access, uh, through the university.

12
00:01:09,352 --> 00:01:14,992
So you get like all of the stock images, photos, uh, videos, all of that.

13
00:01:15,922 --> 00:01:19,492
If you're attending online, feel free to post in chat if you have a question.

14
00:01:19,492 --> 00:01:23,691
I'll be happy to also watch the chat. Um, and you all attending in person.

15
00:01:23,692 --> 00:01:29,242
If you guys have a question, feel free to just stop and ask. We're small group today, so that'll be totally easy to do.

16
00:01:29,722 --> 00:01:34,522
Um, I am recording today's session, but if there's any questions you ask, I'll just edit those out.

17
00:01:34,612 --> 00:01:39,441
Um. No problem. And then that way you'll also get a recording, uh, from today.

18
00:01:39,442 --> 00:01:43,042
So if you want to review or share it with somebody, you're welcome to do that as well.

19
00:01:43,852 --> 00:01:49,342
Yeah. So, um, if you'd like to follow along with my presentation today,

20
00:01:49,672 --> 00:02:02,452
you can go ahead and open up a browser window and go to this short URL that's listed here, a sub I e slash I rc Adobe CC.

21
00:02:11,045 --> 00:02:15,395
And surprise when you arrive at this page, you're already using Adobe Express.

22
00:02:15,425 --> 00:02:23,975
This is actually an Adobe Express web page. Um, I use it for a sort of a replacement for PowerPoint and for a lot of things.

23
00:02:24,155 --> 00:02:30,625
It does create a permalink. Um, you don't have to know any code or use any code to create the site.

24
00:02:30,635 --> 00:02:40,055
It's a drag and drop interface. We've had students use it for, um, study abroad, um, to showcase their experience, kind of like in a blog style.

25
00:02:40,235 --> 00:02:43,595
Also, students have used it as sort of a ePortfolio.

26
00:02:43,595 --> 00:02:48,415
Um, a good basic one to get started with, um, presentation pages.

27
00:02:48,425 --> 00:02:54,695
I've had students use it to document progress of an entire project over a semester, and they just kept adding to it.

28
00:02:54,695 --> 00:02:59,465
And then but at the end of the semester, they already had this great resource that explained their project.

29
00:03:00,095 --> 00:03:06,515
Um, so, um, this Adobe Express web page is going to be a great resource for you to come back to.

30
00:03:06,665 --> 00:03:11,645
It's got some great links that we'll be visiting today. Feel free to click, click around and explore.

31
00:03:11,855 --> 00:03:17,765
Kind of while I'm going through the presentation. But most of today we will be hands on inside of Adobe Express.

32
00:03:18,455 --> 00:03:26,585
But just to kind of, uh, give you a brief overview before we hop into that, um, Adobe, uh, Auburn is an Adobe Creative campus.

33
00:03:26,915 --> 00:03:32,495
Um, so just a brief explanation of, um, sort of our licensing and how that works.

34
00:03:32,945 --> 00:03:37,744
So all students get access to Adobe Express automatically.

35
00:03:37,745 --> 00:03:44,045
So you can just sign into Adobe Express there if you want the full Adobe Creative Cloud.

36
00:03:44,375 --> 00:03:47,645
Um, then you do need to put in a request for that.

37
00:03:47,645 --> 00:03:53,655
It's free. Um, if you were a student here last year and you already did put in a request, then you're good to go.

38
00:03:53,675 --> 00:03:59,945
You already have it. If you're new this year, or if you did not put in a request before, then you.

39
00:03:59,945 --> 00:04:06,455
It's a good idea to visit the adobe.auburn.edu site, which is listed right here on this resource page.

40
00:04:07,145 --> 00:04:12,335
And then notice, um, there's a prompt here for you to go ahead and log in to Adobe Express.

41
00:04:12,365 --> 00:04:15,334
We'll come back to that and we'll use Adobe Express.

42
00:04:15,335 --> 00:04:22,894
But I did want to show you if you would like the full Adobe Creative Cloud, which would include things like Photoshop, illustrator,

43
00:04:22,895 --> 00:04:31,474
InDesign, anything that requires a download, um, you know, uh, Premiere Pro, any of that, then you do need to put in a request.

44
00:04:31,475 --> 00:04:37,475
And the way you do that is you go to the sign up feature and feel free to do it now with me if you would like to.

45
00:04:37,505 --> 00:04:40,595
So you just kind of get this checked off of your list and done.

46
00:04:40,895 --> 00:04:46,235
It literally just takes, you know, less than a minute. Um, what you do is you go to sign up.

47
00:04:46,655 --> 00:04:54,725
They do have you agree and understand that when you graduate, you do lose access to the Adobe Creative Cloud account that you have.

48
00:04:54,995 --> 00:05:01,835
So what we recommend is that as you create these files like Photoshop files or video files or anything,

49
00:05:02,165 --> 00:05:07,115
save those master files to your own personal storage as you go.

50
00:05:07,295 --> 00:05:11,825
And then that way when you graduate, you've already got all of those files that you can take with you.

51
00:05:12,455 --> 00:05:18,815
It's always a good idea to do that anyway. No matter what software you have access to while you're here at university.

52
00:05:19,175 --> 00:05:27,064
Um, because even if you get access, uh, you know, wherever your place of work is going to be in the future, it's going to be a different instance.

53
00:05:27,065 --> 00:05:30,545
It'll be a different account. So save those master files as you go.

54
00:05:30,905 --> 00:05:38,435
Once you do, uh, check mark that and understand that you understand that that will happen and they send information to you.

55
00:05:38,435 --> 00:05:41,584
There's a big graduation email that goes out that lets you know,

56
00:05:41,585 --> 00:05:46,355
like all the stuff that you lose access to and how to save your files and all of that.

57
00:05:46,715 --> 00:05:53,195
Then you can hit request a license, and once you hit request a license, you'll just put in your Auburn username and password,

58
00:05:53,885 --> 00:06:00,695
and then you'll get a confirmation email in a couple of hours that says that you now have access to the Creative Cloud.

59
00:06:00,995 --> 00:06:03,715
And then there's instructions in that email.

60
00:06:03,725 --> 00:06:12,304
But also I wanted to show you on this website under learn is the information about how to get started with your license.

61
00:06:12,305 --> 00:06:18,935
So this, uh, goes over again how to get your account, how to install Adobe Creative Cloud on your computer.

62
00:06:18,935 --> 00:06:23,584
Because you're going to want to put this, um, Creative Cloud desktop app on your computer.

63
00:06:23,585 --> 00:06:29,845
That and sign in to your Auburn account. Um, that way you can choose which apps you want to install.

64
00:06:29,855 --> 00:06:33,005
It keeps you signed into the correct account the whole time.

65
00:06:33,245 --> 00:06:37,145
You can manage the updates that the apps need and so on.

66
00:06:37,535 --> 00:06:40,174
Um, and then you can just choose which ones you want to download.

67
00:06:40,175 --> 00:06:46,355
So if you want to explore Photoshop or InDesign or illustrator, you can get those downloaded and then start exploring those.

68
00:06:46,655 --> 00:06:48,874
Uh, we also offer workshops on those as well.

69
00:06:48,875 --> 00:06:55,175
And I have lots of learning resources, uh, to share with you today if you want to go ahead and get started with that.

70
00:06:55,655 --> 00:07:00,425
Um, also on this page, there's some other just getting started ideas.

71
00:07:00,435 --> 00:07:05,765
Um, Adobe gives us a lot of help documentation away for free.

72
00:07:06,395 --> 00:07:09,935
Um, they're creative cloud tutorials for students are really good.

73
00:07:10,315 --> 00:07:16,945
Um, and they kind of help you get into the apps. Also, when you start just opening up the apps on your computer.

74
00:07:17,275 --> 00:07:23,004
A learn tab will pop up and you can kind of walk through a tutorial right there within the app.

75
00:07:23,005 --> 00:07:29,875
So that'll be really handy as well. Um, if you're a faculty member, we have resources for for faculty as well.

76
00:07:30,655 --> 00:07:34,195
And then also there's some other great resources here.

77
00:07:34,495 --> 00:07:38,905
As an Auburn student, you can also earn badges for free from Adobe.

78
00:07:39,235 --> 00:07:42,235
Um, and so it's this badging program here.

79
00:07:42,505 --> 00:07:48,145
These take maybe an hour and a half to two hours to complete, and you do get a badge at the end.

80
00:07:48,445 --> 00:07:52,704
And probably something that even we create today would even qualify for.

81
00:07:52,705 --> 00:07:56,205
Maybe this first one, the generative AI, because we'll explore that today.

82
00:07:56,215 --> 00:07:59,515
How to use the text to image feature in express.

83
00:07:59,845 --> 00:08:03,805
But there are some, uh, great ones. Sports marketing, storytelling with video.

84
00:08:03,985 --> 00:08:09,225
So what you do is you go through these modules that Adobe has developed and the modules are really good.

85
00:08:09,265 --> 00:08:16,525
They actually teach you as you go, um, and you create a project and then you turn that project into Adobe,

86
00:08:16,525 --> 00:08:20,124
they actually review it and then they will issue you a badge.

87
00:08:20,125 --> 00:08:25,615
And then you can add that to it's a badge. You can add that to your resume, add it to LinkedIn.

88
00:08:26,095 --> 00:08:31,795
And then you've got that Adobe brand name recognition on on your resume, which is really, really nice.

89
00:08:32,845 --> 00:08:37,045
There's also another opportunity if you'd like to be an Adobe student ambassador.

90
00:08:37,315 --> 00:08:45,175
Um, you just agree this is a program that Adobe offers, and you agree to just share information about Adobe on your campus here.

91
00:08:45,175 --> 00:08:48,715
And, um, you can earn like some free swag and things like that.

92
00:08:49,165 --> 00:08:54,145
There is also now an official, um, Auburn Adobe Creative Club.

93
00:08:54,235 --> 00:08:57,235
So that's available and a you involved if you're interested.

94
00:08:57,475 --> 00:09:00,925
They just started last year. They already have like over 50 members.

95
00:09:01,195 --> 00:09:09,075
Um, and they do a lot of fun activities. They're doing like a free button making event next week here in the library in the Tiger Den,

96
00:09:09,085 --> 00:09:13,705
you know, over kind of across from the, um, main help desk on the second floor.

97
00:09:14,005 --> 00:09:19,735
Um, that'll be like next Thursday the fourth. And then Adobe's coming to campus on September 17th.

98
00:09:20,125 --> 00:09:27,445
Um, and they're going to do a fun, like, giveaway on the campus green and have some great swag and teach people about express and things like that.

99
00:09:27,445 --> 00:09:30,594
So we get a lot of, like, benefits, um,

100
00:09:30,595 --> 00:09:37,525
from being part of an Adobe Creative campus that you can take advantage of as well, which is which is really cool.

101
00:09:37,735 --> 00:09:43,315
Um, all of those events, by the way, or in AEW, involve. So you can just check that for anything in the future.

102
00:09:43,525 --> 00:09:51,295
All of our workshops are also listed in AEW involved too, so you can always check back for for more, um, fun information like that.

103
00:09:51,745 --> 00:09:56,095
All right. So that's kind of getting started, uh, with the license.

104
00:09:56,485 --> 00:10:07,015
Um, there is also this great app sheet here that explains, um, like all of the apps that you get access to and what you can use them for.

105
00:10:07,225 --> 00:10:13,645
So like, if you're not sure, okay, if I need to edit an image, like which apps are going to be good express would probably help.

106
00:10:13,885 --> 00:10:21,915
And then Photoshop of course would help you go further with it. But also Lightroom, um, which is a mobile app you can get for your phone.

107
00:10:21,925 --> 00:10:25,075
So there's tons of mobile apps that you can get to as well.

108
00:10:25,705 --> 00:10:32,245
You just download them in the App Store and then sign into your same Auburn Adobe account, and you can access them on your phone.

109
00:10:32,605 --> 00:10:38,125
Um, Adobe Express is also a mobile app, which is super handy because you can create on the go,

110
00:10:38,425 --> 00:10:42,355
um, you know, which is, uh, because your content's probably on your phone anyway.

111
00:10:42,355 --> 00:10:49,845
You're probably taking pictures and video on your phone anyway. So, uh, we will hop into Adobe Express and get going with that.

112
00:10:55,839 --> 00:10:59,619
So if you just did it, it should come within the next two hours.

113
00:10:59,949 --> 00:11:03,239
It might be within one hour, but two hours is the max.

114
00:11:03,249 --> 00:11:08,079
What it does is it checks against the system to make sure you are enrolled as a student.

115
00:11:08,349 --> 00:11:13,829
And then it sends the confirmation after that and it's set to check every two hours.

116
00:11:13,869 --> 00:11:23,729
So yeah great question. If you have any trouble with your license to by the way, the OET helpdesk is the best place to check.

117
00:11:23,739 --> 00:11:26,619
We can help you kind of get started with the troubleshooting.

118
00:11:26,859 --> 00:11:33,099
Um, but if it's really not working for you, then the OET helpdesk, which is on the third floor of the library, can help you with that.

119
00:11:33,309 --> 00:11:37,569
But, um, I haven't heard of anybody having problems getting the license, so it should be good.

120
00:11:37,839 --> 00:11:37,869
Yeah. Good question. Awesome. Well, we will go ahead and hop into Adobe Express.

121
00:11:41,904 --> 00:11:46,013
So you as a student automatically have access to Adobe Express.

122
00:11:46,014 --> 00:11:53,544
When you request an account, you're requesting access to everything else like Photoshop, InDesign, illustrator, Premiere Pro, all of that.

123
00:11:53,814 --> 00:11:58,854
Before we hop in, let's check out this quick little video just so you can get an idea of kind of what it's like,

124
00:11:59,214 --> 00:12:01,284
and I'm just going to mute it so I can talk over it.

125
00:12:01,824 --> 00:12:09,474
Um, but Adobe Express web based app, we're going to be exploring the desktop app today because you get more features with that.

126
00:12:09,804 --> 00:12:16,374
Um, but there's also a mobile app that you can download, and that is really handy because you can create on the go.

127
00:12:16,644 --> 00:12:19,934
There's lots of AI features like these text effects.

128
00:12:19,944 --> 00:12:23,904
You can literally just type in. What do you want the text to look like?

129
00:12:23,904 --> 00:12:27,864
Like purple flowers or balloons or bubbles or whatever.

130
00:12:28,374 --> 00:12:33,804
Um, it's great at helping you make, um, of course, uh, social media, um, content.

131
00:12:34,014 --> 00:12:39,594
If you have, um, a lot of clubs use, uh, express to help them manage their content.

132
00:12:39,924 --> 00:12:46,694
Um, for example, um, all of the wiggle deejays use express to, um, create their, like,

133
00:12:46,704 --> 00:12:52,224
podcast and show covers and then also manage their and create their own social media content.

134
00:12:52,584 --> 00:12:56,904
Um, so we've done that before, worked with different student clubs to kind of help them learn about it.

135
00:12:57,354 --> 00:13:04,073
There's also this generative AI, which is Adobe Firefly, which is Adobe's AI art model,

136
00:13:04,074 --> 00:13:12,654
which is built into Adobe Express as well as Photoshop, InDesign, illustrator, um, Premiere Pro, and so on.

137
00:13:12,924 --> 00:13:17,784
Um, and it helps you create AI art, but really responsibly.

138
00:13:18,174 --> 00:13:23,094
It's only sourced from Adobe Stock Images and public domain images.

139
00:13:23,154 --> 00:13:26,934
So Adobe's always about like giving credit to the artist.

140
00:13:27,264 --> 00:13:31,604
Um, making sure that, um, you know, they're not interfering with creativity.

141
00:13:31,614 --> 00:13:35,424
They want to empower people to be creators and everyone can be an artist.

142
00:13:35,784 --> 00:13:42,384
Uh, with the AI art. Um, and, uh, so that's a little intro and we will hop into expressing.

143
00:13:42,384 --> 00:13:46,894
Get going. Um, faculty and staff, by the way, do have automatic access.

144
00:13:46,894 --> 00:13:50,304
So anyone who's faculty or staff you can sign into express.

145
00:13:50,514 --> 00:13:53,694
You can also go ahead and start using Adobe Creative Cloud.

146
00:13:54,204 --> 00:14:00,194
Um, if you have a, um, university owned machine that you'll be using it on,

147
00:14:00,234 --> 00:14:08,213
you may need to contact your distributed IT person to request the Adobe Creative Cloud desktop app to get installed to your computer,

148
00:14:08,214 --> 00:14:11,674
because your computer's likely managed by the university.

149
00:14:11,694 --> 00:14:15,594
So that's like the one step you may have to do is request the desktop app.

150
00:14:15,894 --> 00:14:20,304
After that, you simply sign in and start downloading the apps and start using them.

151
00:14:20,634 --> 00:14:23,934
But for today, we can all hop into Adobe Express.

152
00:14:24,564 --> 00:14:34,734
So to do that, you can either click the link that's here on my presentation, or you can open a new tab and go to express.adobe.com.

153
00:14:35,154 --> 00:14:41,494
So I'm going to go ahead and click that. And then I want to help you make sure you get signed in correctly.

154
00:14:41,504 --> 00:14:47,474
This is like the the most important thing. It's not too bad, but it does ask you a little question.

155
00:14:47,484 --> 00:14:53,383
So I want to make sure you're good so you can access this from any place you have the internet.

156
00:14:53,384 --> 00:15:01,694
You simply open a browser, go to express.adobe.com, and then you are going to type in your full Auburn email address.

157
00:15:02,294 --> 00:15:08,084
So you'll go ahead and do that. At this point, type in your full Auburn email address and then you'll hit continue.

158
00:15:08,804 --> 00:15:13,054
Once you hit continue, make sure you choose company or school account.

159
00:15:13,064 --> 00:15:16,513
That's the one little trick you don't want to click.

160
00:15:16,514 --> 00:15:17,413
Personal account.

161
00:15:17,414 --> 00:15:26,504
That'll create sort of like a random free instance with your Auburn email, and it won't be the full premium access that you that you get.

162
00:15:26,654 --> 00:15:29,773
So make sure to choose company or school account every time.

163
00:15:29,774 --> 00:15:33,884
That goes for every Adobe app, ever, wherever you access it.

164
00:15:34,394 --> 00:15:38,984
And then you will likely get your familiar Auburn authenticate login.

165
00:15:40,064 --> 00:15:41,957
So that's what you're going to want to do. Go ahead and put that in.

166
00:15:47,041 --> 00:15:54,061
etc. and then you should be signed in and once you're signed in, your screen will basically look like this.

167
00:15:54,571 --> 00:16:01,501
And you can also check to make sure you've got your log in by having like your little sign in is over here and so on.

168
00:16:06,972 --> 00:16:11,772
um, you can see there are lots of things you can kind of get started with right away.

169
00:16:12,192 --> 00:16:16,802
Um, so some things you can get started with right away is you can start editing your own content.

170
00:16:16,812 --> 00:16:23,202
So if you wanted to edit your own image that you created a video, you want to create a PDF from something that you made.

171
00:16:23,502 --> 00:16:27,142
You could start with that. There's also a generate with AI.

172
00:16:27,162 --> 00:16:33,402
You can create text to images. Um, there are even you can even make a template uh, with AI.

173
00:16:33,732 --> 00:16:43,302
Um, like for example, create uh, back to school Instagram post, um, about the Adobe campus event happening on September 17th.

174
00:16:43,392 --> 00:16:47,682
And then it would create basically, uh, a design that you could then iterate.

175
00:16:48,162 --> 00:16:54,542
There's also quick actions, like you can do things like convert a video file from one type to another,

176
00:16:54,552 --> 00:16:57,522
uh, save something as a PDF, that's that kind of thing.

177
00:16:57,882 --> 00:17:03,852
And then they also have all these great templates that you can explore to get started with, um, as well.

178
00:17:04,872 --> 00:17:10,482
But uh, to simplify things a bit, you can see there are lots of ways to get started with creating.

179
00:17:10,812 --> 00:17:16,782
And it also may depend on what it is you want to create. Are you creating something from scratch like your own content?

180
00:17:16,812 --> 00:17:21,371
Is it a video? Is it a graphic? Is it a poster? What is it that you want to make?

181
00:17:21,372 --> 00:17:22,002
And so on.

182
00:17:22,362 --> 00:17:30,912
So to kind of simplify things a bit and also to kind of give you the most choices, if you click the little plus sign on the upper left hand corner,

183
00:17:31,212 --> 00:17:36,222
then you kind of get a better idea of all the things that you can, uh, get started with.

184
00:17:36,492 --> 00:17:39,702
And you can kind of, uh, address them by category.

185
00:17:39,882 --> 00:17:45,192
So if you needed something that was more like, I want to make some social media, I want to make a video.

186
00:17:45,522 --> 00:17:48,882
Um, I'm working with a photo that I want to edit.

187
00:17:49,092 --> 00:17:55,362
Um, it's a document I need to create, like, a flier, um, web page, print, all of that.

188
00:17:55,602 --> 00:18:03,942
So. But to kind of, like, simplify this a bit, uh, it helps to understand that Adobe Express, essentially.

189
00:18:03,942 --> 00:18:07,782
And I'm going to go back to the presentation for just a second, but you can stay in express,

190
00:18:08,292 --> 00:18:12,612
um, essentially helps you create three different categories of things.

191
00:18:13,032 --> 00:18:16,062
Uh, any kind of graphics or documents.

192
00:18:16,062 --> 00:18:18,492
So graphics that are digital or print.

193
00:18:18,762 --> 00:18:25,632
So an eight and a half by 11 flier, a presentation which you can download as a PowerPoint now, which is pretty cool.

194
00:18:25,962 --> 00:18:37,031
Um, a thumbnail image for a video, some generative AI art text to image, a PDF, um, a custom size graphic for a website, anything like that.

195
00:18:37,032 --> 00:18:42,822
So graphics is the first category. Second category is like video and audio.

196
00:18:42,912 --> 00:18:46,052
It'll help you create different types of video formats.

197
00:18:46,122 --> 00:18:48,672
Um, it's good for shorter form video.

198
00:18:49,002 --> 00:18:57,522
Um, now, express does not have a limit on how big your video or how long it can be, but it is a web based video editor.

199
00:18:57,792 --> 00:19:02,022
So the bigger the video is, the longer it's going to take to load and so on.

200
00:19:02,232 --> 00:19:08,292
So it's better for like short form video if you need a little bit longer form video, say longer than five minutes.

201
00:19:08,682 --> 00:19:16,452
Adobe Rush is a really great option. And then also Premiere Pro is the professional version, but there are some great little video options.

202
00:19:16,752 --> 00:19:22,812
And then finally the third category is web page. It does help you create a very basic web page.

203
00:19:23,142 --> 00:19:28,392
Uh, like we talked about, this presentation that you're on is an Adobe Express web page.

204
00:19:28,392 --> 00:19:36,132
So you can get the feel for how you can add text, you can add bulleted list, you can embed a video, um, very basic.

205
00:19:36,252 --> 00:19:39,921
Um, you can't get in there and tweak the code. It doesn't even use HTML.

206
00:19:39,922 --> 00:19:46,122
It uses Adobe's design code. Um, so but because of that, it also makes it super, super easy to use.

207
00:19:46,482 --> 00:19:52,781
Um, so let's work on exploring those. So the first thing is maybe a graphic.

208
00:19:52,782 --> 00:19:57,822
So I think it might be cool if we start with something kind of small to kind of get started.

209
00:19:58,092 --> 00:20:04,782
I'm going to choose under the standard and suggested under the plus sign the 1 to 1 square ratio.

210
00:20:05,142 --> 00:20:09,072
So I'm going to click that. And then here's what we can do.

211
00:20:09,102 --> 00:20:12,942
We can try out a couple of things. Um on the left hand side.

212
00:20:12,942 --> 00:20:16,762
Notice that it's kind of prompting us if we want to start with a template.

213
00:20:16,782 --> 00:20:20,952
We could do that. So maybe let's try that at first.

214
00:20:21,372 --> 00:20:24,762
And I'm going to do a back to school graphic.

215
00:20:25,392 --> 00:20:31,122
You can choose a category that you're interested in or a topic that you're interested in and search.

216
00:20:32,222 --> 00:20:39,912
It could be a birthday party invitation. You can use this to make you know anything digital you want to send to people, text to them, or whatever.

217
00:20:39,932 --> 00:20:48,422
Post. And so, um, put in a topic that you're interested in and go ahead and search for a template.

218
00:20:49,052 --> 00:20:53,882
And then once you have these templates that come up you can just select one.

219
00:20:54,332 --> 00:20:59,432
So I'm going to select this one here. Now notice this one has a little crown at the bottom with a check mark.

220
00:20:59,672 --> 00:21:04,132
That just means it's a premium template. And we do get access to premium templates.

221
00:21:04,142 --> 00:21:09,062
So that's all good. So once you click a template go ahead and choose one.

222
00:21:09,662 --> 00:21:16,532
Then you can remix it. You can click on anything in the template that you want to change.

223
00:21:17,042 --> 00:21:24,602
And once you select it in the window then you get the proper menu on the left hand side for the edits that you want to make.

224
00:21:24,722 --> 00:21:30,962
So if I've selected the text, then I can edit the text over, uh, and I've got the text menu open.

225
00:21:31,352 --> 00:21:35,372
So I can change the, uh, the font style.

226
00:21:36,542 --> 00:21:40,952
You know, I could do that. If I want to change what the text says, I can just double click it.

227
00:21:41,952 --> 00:21:48,222
And then retype or just delete the text. Of course you can click and drag and move these things around.

228
00:21:48,612 --> 00:21:56,892
You can rotate them. You can make them bigger or smaller by either clicking and dragging or adjusting the font size.

229
00:21:57,222 --> 00:22:04,332
Um, point size over here. Um, and then just start clicking on other elements that might be in your template.

230
00:22:04,362 --> 00:22:08,472
My particular template has text has a couple of different text boxes.

231
00:22:09,192 --> 00:22:16,182
Um, and it also has a shape. And I can once I click a shape I can also change the color of the shape.

232
00:22:17,022 --> 00:22:26,232
And another thing that express does, which is really nice, uh, with the colors, is it'll give you an idea of what colors might be recommended for you.

233
00:22:26,442 --> 00:22:30,072
So that's really nice with design. I'll give you some some ideas.

234
00:22:30,522 --> 00:22:34,302
Um, you can even set up a library with your own colors if you want.

235
00:22:34,572 --> 00:22:40,992
You can of course, always go to custom and get and pick any color that you like, right, and make those changes.

236
00:22:40,992 --> 00:22:51,282
You can also eyedrop use the eyedropper to select a color you know that's in the, uh, content already, and then it will match it.

237
00:22:51,852 --> 00:22:57,412
Um, if you needed some very specific colors, here's where you would copy and paste the hex code.

238
00:22:57,432 --> 00:23:04,422
So like if you wanted to work exactly with the Auburn specific colors, you can go get the hex codes, copy and paste them here.

239
00:23:04,632 --> 00:23:12,012
And that's how you can work with, um, color. Um, you can also this is an image which is really cool.

240
00:23:12,282 --> 00:23:15,431
And what they did is they removed the background from the image.

241
00:23:15,432 --> 00:23:19,302
And that's something you may have thought you may have had to gone to Photoshop for.

242
00:23:19,422 --> 00:23:24,112
But a lot of things are powered by Photoshop inside of express.

243
00:23:24,132 --> 00:23:29,532
So it kind of helps you get started. And then when you're ready for more, you can move on to Photoshop.

244
00:23:29,922 --> 00:23:34,182
Um, so we'll, we'll, we'll give this a try and create one on our own in just a second.

245
00:23:34,422 --> 00:23:40,512
But just kind of get a feel for how you can click on things in the template that you picked and make adjustments to it.

246
00:23:41,112 --> 00:23:47,202
Another thing that was added to this template is a another shape, just a rectangle to make a frame.

247
00:23:47,622 --> 00:23:51,522
Um, and then there's also like some little design dots back here.

248
00:23:51,552 --> 00:24:00,512
There are design elements that you can add as well. Um, before we go on, we should talk about managing your files real quick.

249
00:24:01,292 --> 00:24:05,402
So we've been messing around with this template, but we haven't given it a name yet.

250
00:24:05,702 --> 00:24:10,202
So on the upper left hand corner, let's give this project a name.

251
00:24:10,352 --> 00:24:12,992
So I'm going to call this one sample.

252
00:24:12,992 --> 00:24:21,272
And, uh, back to school, but you can call it whatever makes sense to you for your particular topic and thing that you selected.

253
00:24:21,632 --> 00:24:31,072
And then hit enter, uh, make it words that you would use to search, um, to find this file again, make it make sense.

254
00:24:31,082 --> 00:24:37,142
You know, your file names should make sense. And so now let's practice like the file management part of it.

255
00:24:37,712 --> 00:24:47,042
So if you want to go back to the home screen of Adobe Express you'll click the little colorful A on the upper right hand uh upper left hand corner.

256
00:24:47,732 --> 00:24:56,072
And that will take you back to the home screen. And so if you had finished working in your project for the day, you could go back to the home screen.

257
00:24:56,072 --> 00:25:00,901
I recommend doing that because Adobe Express does save as you go.

258
00:25:00,902 --> 00:25:06,361
It automatically just save this, save the changes as you go. But it's a good idea to click back on the home screen.

259
00:25:06,362 --> 00:25:11,942
Maybe force it to do that final save on that screen before you just shut your lid and run to class, right?

260
00:25:12,392 --> 00:25:20,942
Um, so go back to the home screen and then to find your file again, it's under the folder called your stuff on the left hand side.

261
00:25:21,572 --> 00:25:29,012
So make sure you click on the Your Stuff folder. Now you can create folders in here and organize your content better.

262
00:25:29,282 --> 00:25:34,322
Um I've just left mine here. But you could, you know, create folders and everything.

263
00:25:34,562 --> 00:25:39,632
This is where you would search your files. So that's why it would be important to give your files names.

264
00:25:39,902 --> 00:25:44,732
So then you can go back and find them again. Um, but it's going to have your most recent ones here.

265
00:25:44,942 --> 00:25:51,062
So I'll just click back into the design. And now we can continue editing like we were working before.

266
00:25:52,022 --> 00:25:58,502
There's also some other basic things up here at the top. You've got background color you could change and all of that.

267
00:25:58,742 --> 00:26:05,941
There is a nice translate feature. This will translate your, um, text to another language.

268
00:26:05,942 --> 00:26:12,092
And it does a really good job. It'll make a copy of your design and also translated at the same time.

269
00:26:12,422 --> 00:26:15,662
So that's the translate feature if you'd like to give that a try.

270
00:26:15,992 --> 00:26:20,401
Feel free. It does a really good job. Um, there's a lot of AI features in here.

271
00:26:20,402 --> 00:26:27,422
That's one of them um, as well. So that's kind of getting started with a template.

272
00:26:27,692 --> 00:26:31,022
What if we created something from scratch ourselves, right.

273
00:26:31,352 --> 00:26:38,552
So, um, to the same project file, let's click on the bottom right hand side and add a page.

274
00:26:39,002 --> 00:26:42,842
So we can add multiple pages to the same project file.

275
00:26:43,352 --> 00:26:51,002
Um, in this case I'm going to use the same size. But, um, you know, you could um, do a different size.

276
00:26:51,002 --> 00:26:54,332
You can have files of different sizes in the same project.

277
00:26:54,692 --> 00:26:59,462
You can also click the little caterpillar menu and duplicate this page.

278
00:26:59,492 --> 00:27:03,541
This would be really handy if you're managing a bunch of social media,

279
00:27:03,542 --> 00:27:08,732
or if you need something in different sizes but the same design, you could duplicate it.

280
00:27:09,062 --> 00:27:11,932
And then there's a resize option at the top.

281
00:27:11,942 --> 00:27:19,592
You could say resize for Facebook, resize for Instagram, real resize for, you know, LinkedIn, whatever it is.

282
00:27:19,862 --> 00:27:26,132
That's very, very handy. But for now we're just going to hit Add page and then let's do the same size.

283
00:27:26,702 --> 00:27:32,252
And now we have a blank page. And now we can see that we have two pages in our project file.

284
00:27:32,522 --> 00:27:35,882
This is the same file. We can also name our page up here.

285
00:27:36,152 --> 00:27:39,212
So if we wanted to name the different pages we could do that as well.

286
00:27:41,002 --> 00:27:45,502
All right, so now let's make something from scratch and you can go with your same topic.

287
00:27:45,502 --> 00:27:50,632
Or if you want to do a different topic you totally can. But let's add some basic things to our design.

288
00:27:50,962 --> 00:27:54,122
Let's first add some, uh, media.

289
00:27:54,132 --> 00:28:03,052
So let's add an image. Um, and so I want to show you and have you practice finding, uh, good photos in Adobe Express.

290
00:28:03,502 --> 00:28:07,191
So if we want to add a photo to this, we can go to the media tab.

291
00:28:07,192 --> 00:28:11,652
And then we have photos here. Now notice we could upload our own photos.

292
00:28:11,662 --> 00:28:15,261
Absolutely. You can do that. We can also generate an image.

293
00:28:15,262 --> 00:28:18,412
We'll come back to that in just a minute. That's the AI feature.

294
00:28:18,412 --> 00:28:21,412
But you can also go to search photos right here.

295
00:28:21,952 --> 00:28:28,372
And we can search for a topic. So feel free to search for whatever topic, um, that you might like.

296
00:28:29,122 --> 00:28:34,492
And we've got some really cute back to school photos, so I might pick one of these.

297
00:28:34,792 --> 00:28:39,592
This one's nice because it has some space for some text, so that could be a cool one to pick.

298
00:28:39,922 --> 00:28:50,062
I may go ahead and pick this one. Now when you search photos here, it's searching Adobe Stock images um and pulling from that.

299
00:28:50,782 --> 00:28:56,392
But notice you don't get a lot of filtering. There is something else I can show you real quick.

300
00:28:56,662 --> 00:29:06,332
Um, there's also, um. There's also, um, Adobe, uh, stock images that you can that you can do.

301
00:29:06,392 --> 00:29:10,162
Um, I'll see if I can. Uh, I don't really want to totally minimize it.

302
00:29:10,202 --> 00:29:13,252
Let's see if I can resize. I don't know if it let me resize.

303
00:29:13,262 --> 00:29:21,332
We'll do that later. Um, anyway, you can also access Adobe Stock by going to stock.adobe.com and signing in there.

304
00:29:21,752 --> 00:29:24,902
Um, and you can filter the images a lot better.

305
00:29:24,932 --> 00:29:28,342
We'll try that at the end. Um, but I'm going to pick a picture.

306
00:29:28,352 --> 00:29:34,532
So if you feel free to pick a picture that you like and then make sure you click on that image once you've added it.

307
00:29:34,532 --> 00:29:38,552
So you get to the image menu and look at all the cool things that you can choose.

308
00:29:38,852 --> 00:29:43,002
You can remove the background from this picture. You can erase parts of it.

309
00:29:43,022 --> 00:29:48,842
You can remove an object that's in the way. And these are using, uh, Photoshop features.

310
00:29:49,112 --> 00:29:52,712
You can insert an object. We can just set this one as the background.

311
00:29:52,712 --> 00:29:57,512
That would probably work for this particular image because we want to have space for some text.

312
00:29:58,142 --> 00:30:04,532
Um, we can also adjust the image. Um, it's got we can change the contrast and brightness.

313
00:30:04,982 --> 00:30:11,752
There are effects that we can do to it. So we can change it to like a duotone or colorize.

314
00:30:11,762 --> 00:30:15,032
Get some different filters here and all of that.

315
00:30:15,812 --> 00:30:20,102
So those are some things we can do to it. So pick a picture and add it to your design.

316
00:30:21,492 --> 00:30:24,942
And then after you pick a picture, let's add some text.

317
00:30:26,112 --> 00:30:29,172
So once you pick a picture let's go to the text options.

318
00:30:30,072 --> 00:30:36,732
And here you have some options to uh add some sort of pre formatted text if you would like to.

319
00:30:36,762 --> 00:30:39,832
You can kind of scroll through these and see what are some options.

320
00:30:39,862 --> 00:30:44,712
See these ones look more like buttons. This one looks more like signs and labels.

321
00:30:45,132 --> 00:30:48,302
Seasonal uh speech bubbles.

322
00:30:48,312 --> 00:30:52,852
You know, there's all kinds of options there. So just like you could choose a template and adjust it.

323
00:30:52,872 --> 00:30:58,432
You can also choose some pre formatted text and adjust it. You can also just add your own text.

324
00:30:58,452 --> 00:31:04,392
So I'm going to do that. I'm just going to hit add your text. And then I'm going to put back to school.

325
00:31:05,712 --> 00:31:11,232
And then once you have typed something in you can of course change the font.

326
00:31:11,412 --> 00:31:14,202
Uh, you know, style and all of that.

327
00:31:14,712 --> 00:31:24,762
And then you can also choose the change, the color if you would like to, and everything you can do that you can also change the size.

328
00:31:25,512 --> 00:31:27,802
And then here's another thing that's really cool.

329
00:31:27,822 --> 00:31:35,812
It uses AI to kind of like scan your design and check into it and then uh, gives you recommended font ideas.

330
00:31:35,832 --> 00:31:40,212
So if I like one of these and I could just click it and be like, oh yeah, this is cool.

331
00:31:40,242 --> 00:31:43,752
We'll give this a try. Here we go. Something like that.

332
00:31:44,242 --> 00:31:47,412
Yeah. Nice. So pretty cute.

333
00:31:47,652 --> 00:31:52,662
And then there's also these text layouts you can do. Um, text flow is really neat.

334
00:31:52,662 --> 00:31:55,482
That's actually a feature in InDesign as well.

335
00:31:55,902 --> 00:32:03,041
It lets you have text boxes that are linked together, so the text will automatically flow from one box to another,

336
00:32:03,042 --> 00:32:07,842
even though they're in different places and everything. Yeah. Uh, welcome.

337
00:32:07,962 --> 00:32:17,412
We're exploring Adobe Express today. So after you get signed in, you can just go to express.adobe.com and sign in.

338
00:32:17,652 --> 00:32:29,042
Yeah. Of course. Um, there's also this rewrite feature in Adobe Express where, um, it does give you ideas for the language you might want to use.

339
00:32:29,052 --> 00:32:34,842
So this is sort of a small large language model that's available, uh, within Adobe Express.

340
00:32:35,142 --> 00:32:44,212
Um, I would recommend using it if you want to help sort of condense some text into a smaller, uh, format and all of that, by the way.

341
00:32:44,232 --> 00:32:51,902
Here at Auburn, you do also get access to Microsoft Copilot, which is a large language model that uses ChatGPT five.

342
00:32:51,912 --> 00:32:57,371
So you're getting access to a paid model through Microsoft Copilot copilot dot

343
00:32:57,372 --> 00:33:03,232
Microsoft.com sign in with your Auburn login and you are in a protected instance.

344
00:33:03,252 --> 00:33:08,082
It doesn't record what you put in there. Um, it doesn't train on that content.

345
00:33:08,412 --> 00:33:13,122
Um, and, uh, it's a safe environment for you to work in for a large language model.

346
00:33:13,302 --> 00:33:16,292
You can use these things in conjunction with each other, right.

347
00:33:16,302 --> 00:33:23,952
Use copilot to help you with some of the language or the marketing, uh, lingo and things like that, or a slogan or something.

348
00:33:24,192 --> 00:33:31,242
And then put that into Adobe Express, into your design after you've used it to sort of brainstorm some ideas and stuff like that.

349
00:33:31,542 --> 00:33:38,202
So that's another quick little, uh, tidbit there. You can also, um, hyperlink text as well.

350
00:33:38,502 --> 00:33:42,992
Um, you get lots of options by clicking on the little, uh, caterpillar tool.

351
00:33:43,002 --> 00:33:49,332
So make sure you click around on the different elements in your design and play around with the different options.

352
00:33:49,932 --> 00:33:57,702
There are also things like locking in place so we can lock this, um, uh, element to the background.

353
00:33:57,882 --> 00:34:01,752
And now if I try to click and drag it, it doesn't let me mess it up.

354
00:34:02,412 --> 00:34:06,342
We can always unlock it, but that's a nice feature.

355
00:34:06,642 --> 00:34:10,812
You can also add more than one thing and group them together. So we could do that.

356
00:34:11,712 --> 00:34:19,062
Um, now that we've added a photo and text, make sure you also go to the elements tab on the left hand side.

357
00:34:19,572 --> 00:34:26,711
And notice you have these design assets you have that you can search the.

358
00:34:26,712 --> 00:34:31,902
There are all kinds of just cool backgrounds that you can select from, which are pretty neat.

359
00:34:32,112 --> 00:34:39,402
And notice what it did. It is filtering the backgrounds based upon the design that I'm working on.

360
00:34:39,822 --> 00:34:44,562
So that can be like a really cool technique, right? You get started with the design with your topic.

361
00:34:45,402 --> 00:34:53,442
And then as you are searching through some of these elements, it will kind of prompt you for ones that relate to your design.

362
00:34:53,652 --> 00:34:56,802
Whereas if it was blank, it wouldn't have anything to go on. Right?

363
00:34:57,042 --> 00:35:01,812
So that could be a nice, uh, feature as well. Um, there's basic shapes.

364
00:35:01,812 --> 00:35:05,802
You can also draw your own. Um, is an option as well.

365
00:35:06,252 --> 00:35:14,472
And then also the shapes in Adobe Express act like a layer mask in Photoshop.

366
00:35:14,862 --> 00:35:21,522
So it's kind of helping you get a little bit into Photoshop without sort of overwhelming you with the idea of a layer mask.

367
00:35:21,792 --> 00:35:27,312
It's saying, hey, apply this shape to the image and it will mask.

368
00:35:27,312 --> 00:35:33,132
It will like cover up the rest of the image. It will condense it to the size of that shape.

369
00:35:33,552 --> 00:35:37,062
Um, so that's a neat feature that, um, express offers.

370
00:35:37,062 --> 00:35:45,132
You can also just use it for basic shapes and add a shape and, you know, change the color in the, in the, uh, line, you know, the stroke in the fill.

371
00:35:46,032 --> 00:35:50,142
Um, but make sure you also find the icons tab.

372
00:35:50,142 --> 00:35:55,452
This is under Elements and icons. Icons are super, super handy.

373
00:35:55,842 --> 00:36:05,892
Um, because, um, you can get a lot of information across, um, in a short period of time with these icons.

374
00:36:06,102 --> 00:36:10,812
And the icons aren't quite as editable as a photo image.

375
00:36:11,112 --> 00:36:14,652
So keep that in mind. You can change the color of them.

376
00:36:15,102 --> 00:36:18,222
Um, and that's pretty much it. You can't crop it.

377
00:36:18,222 --> 00:36:22,272
You can't, you can, you can you can animate it, turn it into like a video.

378
00:36:22,542 --> 00:36:30,582
But these icons are super handy. So if you need to make like an infographic or a research poster or a really cool

379
00:36:30,582 --> 00:36:35,982
slide for a PowerPoint that you're doing that you need sort of some more creative,

380
00:36:36,282 --> 00:36:40,962
uh, icons at your disposal. Um, this is a cool option as well.

381
00:36:40,962 --> 00:36:42,432
So you have these icons.

382
00:36:43,002 --> 00:36:53,322
Um, and then another thing you can do is, as you put your design together, um, you can click and drag and select more than one item at once.

383
00:36:53,622 --> 00:36:59,652
You can also just click and then use the shift key to select more than one thing.

384
00:37:00,012 --> 00:37:07,152
And then you can group them together. And then just like something like if you've used PowerPoint, you know this is the same thing, right?

385
00:37:07,362 --> 00:37:14,622
So you can group them together as you're doing your design that way makes it easier as you're moving stuff around, and you can always ungroup them.

386
00:37:14,832 --> 00:37:18,372
You can always delete things, you can duplicate things, etc.

387
00:37:19,062 --> 00:37:27,252
Yeah. So those are the icons. Um, and then um, also as far as what else is in this menu, we didn't really go through yet.

388
00:37:27,282 --> 00:37:31,962
There's some very basic charts and grids that are available here.

389
00:37:32,292 --> 00:37:44,412
Um, this is handy for simple things. Um, you have um, of course you would have more choices to adjust a chart in something like Excel or Tableau.

390
00:37:44,412 --> 00:37:49,452
So if you need better data visualization then those would be good options.

391
00:37:49,842 --> 00:37:59,712
Um, but if you just need something quick and you maybe have the basic information, you can click one of these graphs and then literally just type in.

392
00:38:00,252 --> 00:38:04,632
Um, so this is the number of kids that are using backpacks.

393
00:38:05,292 --> 00:38:10,122
And then this is the one the number of kids that are using rolling bags.

394
00:38:10,692 --> 00:38:15,822
You know, I can just make these up. I can change the amounts, something like that.

395
00:38:16,512 --> 00:38:20,442
And then it automatically adjusts as we go, which is pretty neat.

396
00:38:20,922 --> 00:38:26,232
Um, and then we can move this around. Of course click and drag etc.

397
00:38:26,232 --> 00:38:30,612
Right. So just very basic chart and grid that we could create here.

398
00:38:31,002 --> 00:38:34,632
Um you also have tables available here as well.

399
00:38:35,052 --> 00:38:42,192
And then grids are really cool for if you want to shove a lot of content together for like a social media post or something like that.

400
00:38:42,492 --> 00:38:47,442
You could have like two videos running next to each other at the same time and they would run.

401
00:38:47,832 --> 00:38:55,932
Um, it does like force your content to fit into those grids so you don't get a lot of control once you do choose a grid,

402
00:38:56,202 --> 00:39:02,111
but it would be pretty cool if you've got like four videos running at the same time.

403
00:39:02,112 --> 00:39:05,202
Maybe it's the same content with different angles or something like that.

404
00:39:05,472 --> 00:39:10,182
That would be a really cool post to do, and the grid would make it very easy to do that.

405
00:39:10,842 --> 00:39:13,752
Um, so the grids are kind of a cool feature as well.

406
00:39:14,772 --> 00:39:22,152
And then let's go back to the media tab, because I really want to make sure you guys get a chance to try the AI art.

407
00:39:22,482 --> 00:39:26,862
And I'm just going to delete a couple of the items here on my design.

408
00:39:26,892 --> 00:39:29,892
I'll just delete that one. So we have some space for our AI art.

409
00:39:30,282 --> 00:39:33,912
Um, also you can zoom in to your design at the top.

410
00:39:34,422 --> 00:39:38,292
Um, so mine's getting a little small. I'm going to zoom in a little bit so you guys can see better.

411
00:39:39,492 --> 00:39:44,802
And, um. What what you, uh, what would be really fun for us to check out now is.

412
00:39:44,822 --> 00:39:48,262
Is using Adobe Firefly inside of express.

413
00:39:48,272 --> 00:39:53,402
So let's go to the media tab and then go to Generate Image.

414
00:39:54,272 --> 00:39:58,892
And then once you go to generate image is going to ask you okay like what ratio do you want.

415
00:39:58,892 --> 00:40:02,792
Um, since this design is square I'm going to stick with the square ratio.

416
00:40:03,722 --> 00:40:08,131
And now what we're doing here. And I'll just make it a little bigger so you guys can see what it's doing.

417
00:40:08,132 --> 00:40:15,752
And then we can resize it later is we are going to type in a description of an image that we want it to create.

418
00:40:16,112 --> 00:40:29,222
So um, my recommendation when you're using an AI art modeler, which remember Firefly is only trained on Adobe Stock images and public domain images.

419
00:40:29,732 --> 00:40:33,722
So it's not going to understand proprietary information.

420
00:40:33,962 --> 00:40:42,272
Okay. It will not be able to do like popular culture items because it refuses to violate copyright.

421
00:40:43,112 --> 00:40:52,472
All right. So that's that's a difference between this AI art model and others that you may have used before, like Midjourney, stable diffusion,

422
00:40:52,472 --> 00:40:59,822
Dall-E, all of those have trained themselves on content from the internet that they did not necessarily have the rights to use.

423
00:41:00,212 --> 00:41:03,332
Um, and so they will do proprietary information.

424
00:41:03,332 --> 00:41:08,911
Now they'll tell you it's not exactly the logo because a pixel might be off or something like that,

425
00:41:08,912 --> 00:41:13,052
but it's close enough that they would get in trouble for it, right, for using it.

426
00:41:13,532 --> 00:41:20,822
All right. So but with Firefly it doesn't understand that. So you have to think a little differently with Firefly and be really artistic with it.

427
00:41:20,822 --> 00:41:23,882
It does understand really complex information.

428
00:41:24,062 --> 00:41:32,522
Like you can even tell it, um, photo, uh, photorealistic, um, image of a horse running down a highway taken with,

429
00:41:32,592 --> 00:41:40,892
uh, a canon, you know, uh, 250 using 400 speed film, put motion blur in it and make it a golden hour.

430
00:41:41,012 --> 00:41:44,992
And it would do all of that. So you can be super fun and intricate with it.

431
00:41:45,002 --> 00:41:54,241
And you could also just be just, you know, simple. So my advice is use this when you can't find what it is that you want in a stock image.

432
00:41:54,242 --> 00:41:59,552
If you can find it in a stock image, just use a stock image because then you have full rights to republish it.

433
00:41:59,792 --> 00:42:09,752
No problem at all. With the AI art model, you cannot own the copyright to anything that the AI creates because the I cannot own a copyright.

434
00:42:10,142 --> 00:42:19,412
So on the other side though, Adobe Firefly is commercial safe because it's not violating copyright by what it's been trained on.

435
00:42:19,682 --> 00:42:25,832
So it's the most safe AI art model that's out there, essentially and commercially safe to use.

436
00:42:26,192 --> 00:42:31,892
Um, but use it to create like little, you know, characters, things that are maybe beyond your artistic ability.

437
00:42:32,102 --> 00:42:35,432
I am also not an artist. My background is in instruction, not art.

438
00:42:35,612 --> 00:42:43,862
So this empowers all of us to be an artist, but use it for maybe combining two things that aren't necessarily don't necessarily go together,

439
00:42:44,012 --> 00:42:47,612
like the example we saw on the video was a hamburger with wings.

440
00:42:47,612 --> 00:42:54,212
Right? So unique things, you know, characters, interesting things, something super specific that you want.

441
00:42:54,572 --> 00:43:01,772
Think of something fun and creative and then, uh, type it in and put whatever's most important in your description first.

442
00:43:02,072 --> 00:43:07,772
That's how the AI art model, it gives priority to whatever's listed first in your text.

443
00:43:08,102 --> 00:43:13,772
You can also ask copilot or a large language model to write you an AI art prompt.

444
00:43:14,042 --> 00:43:17,822
Copy and paste that into Firefly so you can kind of use these tools together.

445
00:43:18,242 --> 00:43:24,382
So I'm going to put um a. Glittery backpack.

446
00:43:26,372 --> 00:43:31,082
Character with big eyes.

447
00:43:31,112 --> 00:43:34,142
You put whatever you want. Something crazy, fun, unique.

448
00:43:34,382 --> 00:43:38,312
Something that's like in your imagination and you just want to see what it does.

449
00:43:39,062 --> 00:43:41,792
I'm going to do a glittery backpack character with big eyes.

450
00:43:42,332 --> 00:43:49,832
I could choose a style reference image if I have my own art that I've drawn or that I've created myself.

451
00:43:50,192 --> 00:43:57,422
I could upload my own art to Firefly and say, emulate this style when you're creating this AI art.

452
00:43:57,812 --> 00:44:01,802
Um, and also it does not train on that content either, which is really nice.

453
00:44:02,102 --> 00:44:05,072
I could give it a composition reference and say, hey,

454
00:44:05,072 --> 00:44:12,062
I want a house that looks like this and give it a picture of a house that I want it to look like, or a piece of artwork that I want it to look like.

455
00:44:12,512 --> 00:44:17,132
You can choose what type of content is it? Um, is it a photographic?

456
00:44:17,132 --> 00:44:20,522
Is it more graphic, like a magazine? Is it more artistic?

457
00:44:20,792 --> 00:44:26,412
You can choose that. And then you can also choose a style like it's a digital art style.

458
00:44:26,432 --> 00:44:34,232
It's neon. Um, neon might work for this particular piece of content that I'm creating, but you don't have to pick anything.

459
00:44:34,232 --> 00:44:38,972
Or you can pick a style. Go ahead and pick something and then hit generate.

460
00:44:39,482 --> 00:44:43,322
Now notice at the bottom it says uses one credit.

461
00:44:43,712 --> 00:44:48,962
So we do technically use generative AI credits as you are using this.

462
00:44:49,262 --> 00:44:56,522
But you have such a sufficient number of credits that you're likely not going to have any sort of issues of running out.

463
00:44:56,552 --> 00:45:04,382
I wouldn't worry about that at all. Okay. It's a way to keep track of how much is our enterprise using the generative AI?

464
00:45:04,802 --> 00:45:10,442
Pretty cute. Look at this little character. So this is a cute little backpack character that I did.

465
00:45:10,982 --> 00:45:13,772
I like this one. They're smiling in this one. That's pretty cute.

466
00:45:13,922 --> 00:45:22,382
So, um, notice it gives you several iterations, and, uh, we could even, um, we could submit feedback and say,

467
00:45:22,382 --> 00:45:27,562
yes, it did a good job or no, it didn't do a good job or this is really bad.

468
00:45:27,572 --> 00:45:31,112
This is nothing like what I wanted. You could report it. Okay.

469
00:45:31,352 --> 00:45:36,212
So if you're really upset, then you can report it. But you can also go back up and redo your description.

470
00:45:36,842 --> 00:45:42,752
Um, what I'm going to do now is, um, now that I have created an image,

471
00:45:42,752 --> 00:45:47,792
I'm going to X out of the Generate image menu, and that'll bring me back to the image menu.

472
00:45:48,032 --> 00:45:52,171
And this would be a good one for us to test the remove background on some.

473
00:45:52,172 --> 00:45:55,772
I give that a try because this little character should be like by itself.

474
00:45:55,772 --> 00:46:01,412
So it would be cool. So I hit remove background and it's going to again use the Photoshop power.

475
00:46:01,412 --> 00:46:06,032
And that was pretty quick right. Did a pretty good job of uh removing the background.

476
00:46:06,482 --> 00:46:10,532
And now I can add this little character and I could even add a little speech bubble or whatever.

477
00:46:13,291 --> 00:46:17,971
Like if you've tried other AI art models. Um, they're kind of basic, you know?

478
00:46:18,391 --> 00:46:24,931
Um, they will do the proprietary information. Right? So if you need something, here's a, here's an example of when to use which one.

479
00:46:24,931 --> 00:46:25,201
Right.

480
00:46:25,561 --> 00:46:36,751
So Adobe Firefly's really good and artistic because it's been trained on this Adobe Stock Images where artists have given their artwork to be used.

481
00:46:36,961 --> 00:46:41,790
So they're really well done. And as far as photography goes, right.

482
00:46:41,791 --> 00:46:48,810
And design and all of that, um, with something like Dall-E that you get access to through copilot,

483
00:46:48,811 --> 00:46:51,931
you can go to Microsoft Copilot and ask it to make an image as well.

484
00:46:52,231 --> 00:46:57,391
That might be a fun thing to try. Try the same prompt in both AI arts and see what happened.

485
00:46:57,611 --> 00:47:04,740
AI art models and see what happens, right? Um, but here's an example of when you might use something like Dall-E.

486
00:47:04,741 --> 00:47:09,781
So, um, we worked with, um, uh, business marketing students who were making a,

487
00:47:09,781 --> 00:47:17,511
their job was to create or their assignment was to create a business marketing pitch, uh, for a specific brand.

488
00:47:17,521 --> 00:47:26,101
So say the Colorado Avalanche. And they had to do research and figure out, okay, what product would be good for this brand to partner with.

489
00:47:26,491 --> 00:47:30,390
And then they had to visually show that, like through a presentation.

490
00:47:30,391 --> 00:47:33,541
So they used to do the express webpage to do their presentation.

491
00:47:34,021 --> 00:47:40,441
But in that case they wanted to say, um, they were suggesting that the Colorado Avalanche maybe partner with Yeti.

492
00:47:40,831 --> 00:47:48,421
Um, that would make sense with that brand and all that. So they wanted an image of Colorado Avalanche players sitting with Yetis.

493
00:47:48,871 --> 00:47:52,711
Dall-E would do that because it understands that proprietary information.

494
00:47:52,711 --> 00:48:00,091
Firefly will not because it doesn't understand it. Right. So in that case, that was a good way to use Dall-E to, you know, do that.

495
00:48:00,361 --> 00:48:04,771
But if you need something more artistic, um, something that's commercial safe,

496
00:48:05,101 --> 00:48:10,411
that's well done, then Firefly's going to be a great option for that as well.

497
00:48:10,591 --> 00:48:16,941
Okay, so that is getting started with graphics in Adobe Express.

498
00:48:16,951 --> 00:48:19,771
Now this could be any resolution size, etc.

499
00:48:20,161 --> 00:48:27,121
Um, we could also animate anything that's in here and it will turn into a video since we're going to go into video next.

500
00:48:27,421 --> 00:48:34,201
If you'd like to try this to your graphic, you are welcome to pick something in your image, like maybe an element.

501
00:48:34,201 --> 00:48:38,101
It could be an image. It could be, uh, an icon. It could be text.

502
00:48:38,491 --> 00:48:45,341
And then notice that they have an animation feature. And then you can animate whatever is in your graphic.

503
00:48:45,881 --> 00:48:55,091
Um, and then, uh, when you do choose to animate something in your graphic, then notice that it then turns it into a video.

504
00:48:55,451 --> 00:49:02,471
So if we wanted to then put this image somewhere else or this video somewhere else.

505
00:49:02,951 --> 00:49:06,971
Uh, notice that we have the download feature over here on the right hand side.

506
00:49:07,481 --> 00:49:12,731
And since we turned that into a video, MP4 is the best option, you know.

507
00:49:12,941 --> 00:49:16,511
But we could also download it as a jpeg png.

508
00:49:17,231 --> 00:49:25,531
Um, so if you were just using this to create an image and then you needed to not in for class or like make it into maybe it's a podcast cover art,

509
00:49:25,541 --> 00:49:29,461
maybe you want to post it online. Maybe you want to stick it in a PowerPoint, whatever.

510
00:49:29,471 --> 00:49:35,141
Maybe you want to print it. PNG, jpeg. And then you also have PDF, which is really nice.

511
00:49:35,261 --> 00:49:42,431
Um, so if you needed to print it. So if it was at eight and a half by 11 flier or a research poster that you created.

512
00:49:42,761 --> 00:49:49,621
Uh, absolutely. And then also you can also create a GIF right from any design that you created.

513
00:49:49,631 --> 00:49:54,851
So that's pretty cool thing as well. Um, so you have those options when you're ready to download it.

514
00:49:55,091 --> 00:49:58,570
Then you can put it wherever you want. Additionally,

515
00:49:58,571 --> 00:50:07,901
make sure you check out this share button because this is really great for group projects or projects where you need to work with other people on it.

516
00:50:08,351 --> 00:50:14,801
Um, you can share edit access to anyone who also has Adobe Express access.

517
00:50:15,101 --> 00:50:22,421
So that means anybody at Auburn, right? So you can one of you can set up the project file, share it with everybody else in the group.

518
00:50:22,931 --> 00:50:25,330
You just start typing their email address here,

519
00:50:25,331 --> 00:50:31,961
their Auburn email address and their name will pop up because it knows we're in like the Adobe Auburn instance and everything.

520
00:50:32,561 --> 00:50:36,201
And uh, then you can, uh, all of all of you guys can edit it.

521
00:50:36,221 --> 00:50:39,891
You can choose who has edit access, who has view access, all of that.

522
00:50:39,911 --> 00:50:48,341
There's also a view only link that you can send. You can even schedule a post if you want to set up the scheduling tool in your social media.

523
00:50:48,731 --> 00:50:51,701
You can even make a template and then share that with somebody else.

524
00:50:51,701 --> 00:50:57,011
And then that way they get a copy that they can remix themselves if you wanted to.

525
00:50:57,431 --> 00:51:02,891
So there's lots of things that are cool to do here when you share your project with somebody else.

526
00:51:03,221 --> 00:51:09,631
Uh, they'll get an email. They'll also get a notification when they open express that says, hey, so-and-so shared a file with you.

527
00:51:09,641 --> 00:51:15,071
Do you want to work on it? And then you can both of y'all can edit at the same time, which is really nice.

528
00:51:15,641 --> 00:51:19,061
So that's basically graphics getting started with that.

529
00:51:19,841 --> 00:51:24,731
Let's go back to the home screen and let's maybe make a video next.

530
00:51:25,151 --> 00:51:29,431
Um, so we can kind of practice the three different categories we talked about earlier.

531
00:51:29,441 --> 00:51:33,371
Any kind of graphic and uh also video and also web page.

532
00:51:34,091 --> 00:51:39,640
So from here again remember we can click the plus sign to get to all of the options.

533
00:51:39,641 --> 00:51:44,411
And then you do have a video category here. Um that you can select.

534
00:51:44,411 --> 00:51:49,451
And then you can set it up as a portrait style or you know, regular landscape style.

535
00:51:49,661 --> 00:51:52,931
I'm going to choose the landscape, but you choose whatever it is that you want to do.

536
00:51:53,861 --> 00:51:56,851
And then again, notice that they have templates over here.

537
00:51:56,861 --> 00:52:06,431
These are like motion graphics templates that you can add, just like we learned how to take the graphics and then add animation to the text.

538
00:52:07,001 --> 00:52:10,751
And that makes a video those that's what those are. They're just already built.

539
00:52:10,751 --> 00:52:18,821
So you can remix them if you want. But what I really want to show you is under um, add media here at the bottom.

540
00:52:19,661 --> 00:52:24,911
This is really cool. There are videos that you can access right here within express.

541
00:52:25,391 --> 00:52:31,841
So if we go to Add media stock videos and then I'm going to keep going with my back to school theme.

542
00:52:31,841 --> 00:52:35,621
But you can choose whatever topic you want that you're interested in.

543
00:52:36,821 --> 00:52:40,791
And I'm searching through some stock video that we get access to.

544
00:52:40,811 --> 00:52:43,851
We only get access to stock video through express.

545
00:52:43,961 --> 00:52:50,511
So that's the trick with that. And, um, these are some pretty cute little videos, so I may choose one to add.

546
00:52:50,531 --> 00:52:57,991
I'm just going to click it. Add it. And now we have a timeline down here that we can play through and see what it's doing.

547
00:52:58,471 --> 00:53:03,451
That's pretty cute. Very nice. If we want to add another one, we can hit the plus sign.

548
00:53:03,871 --> 00:53:07,440
And we want to now notice we can add our own video too of course.

549
00:53:07,441 --> 00:53:12,961
But I want to add another scene. And then I want to add some more back to school video.

550
00:53:12,961 --> 00:53:18,691
So add a second one. So maybe and then notice it says add as layer on canvas.

551
00:53:18,961 --> 00:53:22,471
So if we wanted to have like a picture and picture we could do that.

552
00:53:22,981 --> 00:53:28,621
Or we can add it as another scene. That's what I want to do right now is added as another scene.

553
00:53:28,861 --> 00:53:32,611
But notice you can layer video. You can do just two layers.

554
00:53:32,611 --> 00:53:36,750
I think in express you can do up to four and Premiere Rush.

555
00:53:36,751 --> 00:53:42,991
So if you're looking to do more than that's, that's the next option. You can hit play and watch the video here and so on.

556
00:53:43,201 --> 00:53:47,611
We can trim the video by just clicking and dragging it, making it shorter.

557
00:53:48,311 --> 00:53:52,271
Uh, we can also add a transition between them.

558
00:53:52,291 --> 00:53:57,261
We can add another scene. Um, so this is how does one scene go into the next.

559
00:53:57,271 --> 00:54:03,211
Oh, we're going to have it dip to black or whatever. Um, so that'll be a cool little transition there.

560
00:54:03,571 --> 00:54:08,101
That looks nice. And then notice we can also record yourself.

561
00:54:08,251 --> 00:54:16,921
So this uses like your front facing camera. So if you have to do like an explainer video or something like that for class, this is a great option.

562
00:54:17,311 --> 00:54:24,541
Um you can also upload your own videos. There is also this animate characters feature, which is which is really neat.

563
00:54:24,841 --> 00:54:28,541
Um, and if you click that you can actually choose a character.

564
00:54:28,561 --> 00:54:37,381
You do have to pull from their preset characters. Um, you can choose a background and you can also choose like what size do you want?

565
00:54:37,651 --> 00:54:40,981
Um, you know, your, uh, your video to be.

566
00:54:41,611 --> 00:54:45,121
And you can also upload your own background if you want.

567
00:54:45,391 --> 00:54:48,391
And then once you pick that, you can hit record.

568
00:54:48,601 --> 00:54:56,041
When you hit record, it'll record what you're saying and it will animate the character recording to your audio automatically, which is pretty good.

569
00:54:56,431 --> 00:55:00,391
And it's limited to two minutes. So that's the only sort of downside.

570
00:55:00,601 --> 00:55:04,080
But imagine you have to do something for history class and you could create like, you know,

571
00:55:04,081 --> 00:55:07,981
this guy, you know, talking about the Roman Empire that you're studying or whatever.

572
00:55:08,491 --> 00:55:14,021
That would be pretty cool. So and then also there's this enhanced speech which makes your audio sound really good.

573
00:55:14,041 --> 00:55:21,811
That's a that's a nice feature and express as well. Um, so also speaking of audio, you can hit add audio down here.

574
00:55:21,961 --> 00:55:26,160
You can also go to it in the media tab. You can upload your own audio.

575
00:55:26,161 --> 00:55:33,601
And notice you can record a voice over. Most of the videos that come within Adobe Express don't have, uh,

576
00:55:33,781 --> 00:55:40,140
usually don't have audio with them because they're expecting that you're going to record a voiceover, you're going to add some music.

577
00:55:40,141 --> 00:55:45,141
Like the point is short form video. Um, you know, you're not interested in their audio.

578
00:55:45,151 --> 00:55:50,001
You want B-roll is what you're looking for. Um, you can record your voiceover right here.

579
00:55:50,011 --> 00:55:59,071
You can also just add your own, uh, some, uh, copyright free, um, you know, uh, audio here, um, as well.

580
00:55:59,101 --> 00:56:03,751
Um, so you can just add some music, you can also fade it in and out and all of that.

581
00:56:04,411 --> 00:56:12,871
And then of course, when you are want to share your video, you can turn it into a view only link, which lets you just share the link with anybody.

582
00:56:13,171 --> 00:56:18,751
Or you could of course also download the mp4 and then put it wherever you want.

583
00:56:19,021 --> 00:56:24,931
If you're doing a video for class and you have to turn it in, typically you're going to download it and then upload it to Panopto.

584
00:56:25,231 --> 00:56:32,011
Um, and that's what you'll do. Uh, but of course you can download it and uploaded to YouTube or make your own content or whatever.

585
00:56:32,011 --> 00:56:35,571
You know, anything, um, that you might like, uh, put it on LinkedIn.

586
00:56:35,581 --> 00:56:43,980
Research shows that, uh, people who have video introduction on their LinkedIn get more profile views and things like that.

587
00:56:43,981 --> 00:56:49,681
So that could be a cool use for this type of short form video, like a quick introduction to yourself.

588
00:56:50,931 --> 00:56:52,941
So that's basically video.

589
00:56:52,941 --> 00:57:04,341
Now, anything that you already know about how to add to graphics like the text, the elements, the design, uh, items you can add to video.

590
00:57:04,431 --> 00:57:09,051
So you already know how to do all that. Those are things you can add to this to an animated.

591
00:57:09,381 --> 00:57:17,990
So that's how you could improve your video even more. Um, and the very last thing that I'd like to show you, and if you want to save your video,

592
00:57:17,991 --> 00:57:23,301
you could like name it up here, you know, name it like sample video or whatever it is that you that you called it.

593
00:57:23,721 --> 00:57:29,571
And then remember it will be in the Your Stuff folder. So if you want to come back, back to it a mess around you could totally do that.

594
00:57:30,811 --> 00:57:35,281
And then the last thing I wanted to show you how to create is the web page.

595
00:57:35,491 --> 00:57:39,181
So we were on a web page earlier with the presentation.

596
00:57:39,721 --> 00:57:45,811
The way that you create a web page, that's the third category is you hit the plus sign and then there's a web page option.

597
00:57:46,591 --> 00:57:51,061
And under the web page options you have these templates that you can get going with.

598
00:57:51,631 --> 00:57:55,831
Um but you can also just hit web page and then start from scratch.

599
00:57:55,861 --> 00:58:00,721
That's what I'm going to do. Um, but you could absolutely start with a template if you prefer.

600
00:58:00,751 --> 00:58:03,841
No problem at all. And they give you lots of templates.

601
00:58:03,841 --> 00:58:08,941
Is great for like a portfolio, a presentation, a project file,

602
00:58:09,181 --> 00:58:16,831
a I use it also as a companion to like conference presentations because it does create like a web page and you can just send people to the web page.

603
00:58:17,161 --> 00:58:25,021
So I'm going to create from scratch from here. And then you would pick a photo if I stick with my back to school.

604
00:58:26,181 --> 00:58:30,321
Uh, you know, topic. Then I could use the same photo if I want to.

605
00:58:30,561 --> 00:58:35,151
And then you just basically start clicking, um, and then start typing.

606
00:58:35,151 --> 00:58:41,361
Right. So my project by me, and then it says scroll to start writing your story.

607
00:58:41,361 --> 00:58:48,440
And then now you can see the items that you can put in it. You can put a photo in there, some text, a hyperlinked button, a GIF.

608
00:58:48,441 --> 00:58:52,221
You can embed a video that you created in express right here.

609
00:58:52,581 --> 00:58:58,611
Notice there's a place to pull from the Your Stuff folder, so you can use the web page to pull all of these things together.

610
00:58:58,611 --> 00:59:05,091
Pull your graph again. Pull your video in. Um, the split layout is nice for doing a project description.

611
00:59:05,421 --> 00:59:09,291
Um, you know, here's my project. Here's what I did so far.

612
00:59:09,681 --> 00:59:16,101
Uh, glide shows really nice. It's kind of like a cute little, uh, parallax animation without knowing any code.

613
00:59:16,101 --> 00:59:22,931
It all just kind of scrolls through it. And then you can add some text here, whatever it is that you would like.

614
00:59:23,261 --> 00:59:29,591
Yeah. So it makes it kind of like fun dynamic. You know, without doing too much effort, which is really cool.

615
00:59:30,491 --> 00:59:38,291
Um, and then the rest of it, you can kind of see, um, on this page, you know, uh, you can link text, you can put a hyperlinked button.

616
00:59:38,741 --> 00:59:42,431
Um, you can embed video, embed an image, all of that.

617
00:59:42,731 --> 00:59:46,061
Um, here's the Adobe Stock information and all of that.

618
00:59:46,301 --> 00:59:51,011
That is basically, um, what I wanted to show you inside of Adobe Express.

619
00:59:51,461 --> 00:59:52,961
Um, and then next,

620
00:59:52,961 --> 00:59:59,591
I'll just switch back to the presentation and kind of let you know some resources that are available to you for continuing to learn.

621
00:59:59,981 --> 01:00:03,521
Also, tomorrow you guys will get a follow up email.

622
01:00:03,941 --> 01:00:10,991
Um, with this link, the presentation link also recording from today so that you can review it if you would like to.

623
01:00:11,321 --> 01:00:13,720
But here's the information about Adobe Stock,

624
01:00:13,721 --> 01:00:19,841
how you can get back into the get go filter for really great images and use those in your school projects.

625
01:00:20,231 --> 01:00:25,301
We have the best, uh, license that there is. You can republish that and everything.

626
01:00:25,901 --> 01:00:34,481
And then also on our Adobe Creative Space page, um, we have a help desk of Adobe Consultants.

627
01:00:34,781 --> 01:00:37,871
You can ask them for help. You don't have to make an appointment.

628
01:00:37,871 --> 01:00:42,821
You can just show up when somebody is scheduled to be there. Just check the schedule first.

629
01:00:43,361 --> 01:00:50,951
Um, if you need specific help on a certain app, then click there pseudonym and you can see what their specialties are,

630
01:00:51,131 --> 01:00:55,091
but any of them can help you with Adobe Express and Photoshop.

631
01:00:55,721 --> 01:01:03,881
Other than that, if you need video help, check to see does this person have video listed as a specialty and then go visit them at that time?

632
01:01:04,151 --> 01:01:07,361
They're also available via zoom at the same time.

633
01:01:07,361 --> 01:01:12,401
So if you can't get over to the library and need help, you pop into zoom, ask your question.

634
01:01:12,791 --> 01:01:16,841
And then we have all kinds of additional, uh, learning resources.

635
01:01:17,111 --> 01:01:22,871
We have more workshops coming up. We also record all of our workshops.

636
01:01:22,871 --> 01:01:26,021
And they we put them on our instructional content page.

637
01:01:26,291 --> 01:01:28,601
So we have recordings of everything available to you.

638
01:01:28,631 --> 01:01:36,761
So if you're not able to come to the in-person session and you want to pop in, um, uh, and watch the video, you can absolutely do that.

639
01:01:37,211 --> 01:01:44,231
And all of this is on this page here. Adobe gives you guys plenty of free learning materials as well.

640
01:01:44,471 --> 01:01:49,181
Uh, which is really cool. So yeah. So thank you all so much for coming today.

641
01:01:49,211 --> 01:01:52,271
I'm happy to hang out, see if you guys have any questions.

642
01:01:52,571 --> 01:01:59,861
Um, but that should get you started with Adobe Express and kind of get ready, uh, to, to learn more.

643
01:02:00,161 --> 01:02:06,461
I would recommend to you that, um, if you can try to use Adobe Express within like the next three days.

644
01:02:06,671 --> 01:02:13,781
Research shows when you learn something new, if you try it within the next three days, then you're much more likely to retain that information.

645
01:02:14,051 --> 01:02:18,851
Um, even if it's just something for fun, do a fun little post or a little birthday, you know,

646
01:02:18,851 --> 01:02:24,971
invitation or party invitation or, you know, little happy PSA or whatever, something like that.

647
01:02:25,271 --> 01:02:28,691
Um, that would be really cool. Um, to do as well.

648
01:02:29,751 --> 01:02:33,331
Yeah. Thank you and thanks for attending online as well.

649
01:02:33,351 --> 01:02:35,542
Really appreciate it so much. And um, thanks again guys.
