Post by Micki »

I've recorded my grandson's nativity at school. I want to put a title on the screen before the movie starts. Can you help

Thanks

You have to place some black (or any other) color in front of you movie and you can place the titels on this portion.

  • Go to the Library, which shows Video by default. Click the drop-down menu, and look for Color, and select it. You should now see the color blocks.
  • Drag the color of your choosing to the very front. This is easier to do when your in Storyboard mode. If you already have several clips, with overlays, titles, ect.., make sure you enable Ripple Editing to keep them in sync with the Main Video Track.
  • The color blocks are just like images (photos), where you can adjust the duration to your needs. Once that is done, add your Title
