We recently spoke with Francis Taylor, Assistant Head, Admissions and External Relations at St John’s College in Cardiff. Their content shows fantastic examples of how you can create vibrant and informative imagery on the platform. Francis told us about how creating content on Canva has been very effective around the school,
“Canva has proved to be an invaluable tool for our digital signage. Creating an eye-catching slide can take as little as a few minutes. For quick messages, a single image can be displayed using the ‘Title Slide’ option on the TrilbyTV platform. Canva Pro’s in-built branding toolkit also allows for our house fonts and colours to be deployed with ease. Also, Canva allows users to store an extensive library of stock imagery, perfect for consistent branding. To sum up, Canva and TrilbyTV combine beautifully to allow for clear, effective and eye-catching digital signage.”
