Creating text titles

VideoStudio ensures that creating your title clips is as easy as clicking a few buttons and dragging a few clips.

1.Use the Navigator buttons to scan your video and select the frame you want to add a title to.

2.In the Editing Tab in the Options Panel, click Create Title or click directly in the Preview Window.

Note:Remember that you cannot create a new title over an existing title clip.

3.Type in your title in the Preview Window and use the style buttons to customize fonts. Options are available in the Editing Tab.

4.To add effects to your title, switch to the Animation Tab. Then, select an effect from the Type drop-down list, and choose the desired animation options in the Options Panel.

5.Click Add.
