- [Instructor] Let's talk about some design tools
that you can use to make ad creatives for Instagram.
The first tool that I want to mention is Canva.
Canva is a great free tool for creating all sorts of images
and videos.
As you can see from their website,
they actually have templates specifically
for Instagram posts.
So if you're just starting out designing your own creatives,
Canva is a great place to start.
When talking about ad design tools,
it would be remiss not to mention Adobe Creative Suite.
Creative Suite is the cream of the crop
when it comes to design tools.
Whether you're using Photoshop, Illustrator, and InDesign
for creating great images
or using Premiere Pro to edit videos,
if you're looking to create
the most professional looking ads
and you have experience with design,
Creative Suite is what you want to use.
Finally, for quick image edits,
I recommend checking out Gimp.
Gimp is essentially a free open source version of Photoshop.
As you can see here on their website,
it's available for Linux, Mac, Windows,
and other operating systems as well.
Its user interface isn't quite as user-friendly
as the UI of Photoshop,
but for the price you can't beat it.
So if you're looking to design engaging creatives
for Instagram,
these are some great options to start heading
in the right direction.
