All About Adobe Spark

What is Adobe Spark?

Adobe Spark is a cloud-based design platform which allows users to create custom graphics, web pages, and videos on their computer or mobile device. Spark Page and Spark Video offer iPhone and iPad apps, while Spark Post has native apps for both Android and iOS. Automatic sync of projects across the web and mobile apps allows users to work from anywhere, at any time.

With Spark Post, users can create custom content from a range of templates or from scratch, with the ability to customize logos, colors, fonts, and images to reflect their cause, business, or personal brand. Designs are automatically resized for different channels, allowing users to create blog banners, Instagram posts or stories, YouTube thumbnails, Facebook Ads, and more, without needing to manually resize images.

Spark Page provides users with a range of different website layouts to customize with their own content. Thousands of free stock photos can be utilized, in addition to users’ own photos uploaded from their device or imported from cloud storage accounts. Users can also create web stories using Spark Page’s magazine-style themes, which automatically adapt to display on different devices.

Spark Video allows users to create custom videos by combining icons, photos, and video clips, with the ability to add text overlays to their creations. Various visual themes are included with different transitions and motion designed to enhance the story, mood, and message of the video. Soundtracks can also be added, either from a variety of free soundtracks or uploaded audio files, with the ability to adjust audio volume as necessary.

Key benefits of using Adobe Spark

Users can insert photos into their designs, with the ability to choose from thousands of photos on the internet, or import images from their Adobe Creative Cloud, Lightroom CC, Google Photos, or Dropbox accounts.

A range of professionally-designed themes are built in, combining different fonts, colors, and layouts, with users able to customize themes with their own icons, text, and photos.

Graphics are automatically resized by Spark Post to use on Facebook, Pinterest, blog banners, and more.

Webpages created with Spark Page display text, images, and videos using Glideshow to provide a fluid motion, rather than using a standard page scroll.

In Spark Video, users can combine video clips with icons, photos, audio, and text overlays to create custom videos.
