How is this different from subtitles?
Subtitles follow what is said, line by line, at the bottom of the picture. Text is for titles, names and notes: you choose the words, where they sit and how long they show.
Add Text to a Video
Put a title, a name or any words on your video, each for as long as you want it to show. You place the text by dragging it on the picture, and the video stays on your device.
How to Add Text to a Video
- Open your video in the video editor and move the playhead to where the text should start.
- In the Text tool on the left, press Add text and type your words in the box. The text shows for 3 seconds from the playhead.
- Choose a Font, a colour and a Size. Drag the text on the picture to put it where you want it.
- To change when it shows, drag its block on the Titles lane of the timeline, or drag the block's edges. You can also move the playhead and press Start here or End here.
- For more text, press Add text again. Press Save MP4 at the top right.
Questions
Which fonts can I use?
Inter, Anton, Archivo Black and Merriweather. Each text can have its own font, colour and size.
Can the text fade in and out?
Yes. Each text fades in and out over 0.3 seconds. To change that, open More options and use Fade in and out.
What happens to my text when I cut the video?
It moves with the video. If you cut a part before the text, the text moves along so it still shows over the same moment.
How do I remove a text?
Choose it in the Text tool and press Remove this text. Ctrl+Z brings it back.
