Last week I asked if you would be interested in learning how I make my carousels.
Some of you wanted it!
I’ll share how I do it in this week’s tutorial!
Let’s get started!
1. Download the Free Guide
Begin by downloading this free guide that explains the process of creating AI-powered carousels.
2. Sign Up for ChatGPT
- Head to ChatGPT’s website and register an account if you don’t have one.
- You need an account to create the AI avatar. Alternatively, you can use other AI chatbots if available.
3. Switch to GPT-4 Model with Canvas
- In the model dropdown menu, select either GPT-4 or GPT-4 with Canvas to unlock advanced features for generating AI avatars.
4. Provide a Prompt for AI to Generate an Avatar
- For creating a professional-looking AI avatar, you can give the following prompt as an example:
- “Draw a professional-looking WikiHow-style Asian man with clubmasters spectacles, wearing an orange shirt, looking at his smartphone and smiling.”
5. Copy the Generated Image
- Once ChatGPT generates the avatar, right-click the image and copy it to your clipboard.
6. Open Canva
- Navigate to Canva and log in to your account.
7. Set Up the Carousel Size
- In Canva, click on Custom size to create a new design.
- Set the page dimensions to 800 px by 1000 px—ideal for carousels on platforms like LinkedIn.
8. Paste the Image
- Paste the avatar image you copied from ChatGPT directly into your Canva design.
