I've been using Projector for the last seven months, and it's become a critical tool for me as a PM, Dad, and CMO (Chief Meme Officer). I've used it for Weekly Syncs, Roadmap Presentations, custom GIFs for team shoutouts, and even to inspire my son's 5th Grade Basketball team. If you need software that helps you become a better storyteller and inspire your team, Projector is it! Def on the shortlist of favorite products and believe me, I've tried them all 😂. Great work @tmobrien @peter_ahn and team!

@peter_ahn 😂 How to boost productivity with memes... that's not a bad idea for a blog post

Hey everybody! I'm super excited to announce the latest version of Projector — our fast, fun, multiplayer graphic design platform. With Projector, you can create all sorts of multimedia visuals, from Instagram stories, GIFs, and stickers to presentations and PDFs. And you can take those creations with you and publish them wherever they need to go — we support exporting your creations as images, videos, GIFs, or PDFs. You don't need serious design skills to create beautiful visuals in Projector. Our tools feel familiar and easy-to-use. Content integrations with Unsplash, Giphy, Shutterstock, Noun Project, and Google Fonts put the best creative catalogs at your fingertips. And our professionally-designed template library offers beautiful starting points to remix your heart out. Working on a distributed team? No sweat. Projector is fully collaborative and built for sharing. If you're curious about what's under the hood, Projector is built on a custom WebGL rendering engine with real-time collaboration and native video support. With this as our foundation, we've got lots more creative features coming soon :-) We'd love for you to give Projector a spin and let us know what you think. Just head over to projector.com to create your free account. Thanks for checking us out!

I'm impressed with the look, feel and design of Projector. I appreciate the small touches, like the ability to adjust the timing of individual slides when exporting a slide deck as a video. The slide templates are great - looking forward to a greater variety of templates for other kinds of design projects. And being able to add audio to narrate through slides would be a great future feature. For anyone interested, I wrote up a post about Projector here: https://wondertools.substack.com...

Signed up for the beta and my first impression as a non-designer is that the platform hits a sweet spot between simple UI (every button makes sense) and advanced design functionalities (umm yes to embedding video/gif backgrounds in text and shapes + fast mockups for mobile). Really excited to work with this product more!

Projector makes my life as a designer so much easier. Everything is very straight forward, meaning you don't need a design degree to create awesome visuals. My favorite thing to use Projector for is Instagram Stories and Presentations. I feel that the quality of our instagram stories have really improved since using Projector. There is lots of great stock footage to choose from, and there is also the easy option to drag and drop your own footage in too! Creating and exporting your designs in Projector is a super quick and effortless process. All in all, I would recommend Projector to any and every business. Whether you are a small or large organization. Thank you Projector!

@gwena it's been amazing to see the great visuals you and SFJAZZ have created! Thank you for being such great customers :)

Hi, just wondering how this product differs from canva?
Trevor O'Brien

@new_user_601bf4eedc Hey Lex, thanks for the question! First off, Projector is built for collaboration — everything in our app is multiplayer, real-time collaborative. Second, we make features that are typically only available in pro design tools easier for everyone to use. For instance, we offer a pen tool you can use to create custom shapes. And you can fill those shapes with images and even video. And if you wanna go a step further, you can even add special effects to that video. Since our app is built on a video game-quality graphics engine, there are lots of creative features we can offer that others can't, so you can expect more unique creative features from us soon. And the last thing I'd say is that our approach to templates is pretty different. Each of our templates was created by a professional designer at one of the top design agencies in San Francisco. We want to give everyone access to use and remix professional quality design. Hope this is helpful! Much more coming soon!
