- Copy the HTML embed code.

- Go to your TrilbyTV and click the + icon to Add Web Content.
- Paste the HTML code into TrilbyTV and click Save.
TIP

Adding animated content
Subtle motion is a great way to grab the attention of your audience!
- Once you have finished your design on Canva.com, which can also include Page and Text animations, click Share, then Embed LIVE.

- Copy the HTML embed code
- Paste the HTML code somewhere you can edit it. You'll need to update the code so that anywhere the word 'watch' is present, is updated to 'view' as shown in the example below.
