ADDING TEXT AND TITLES | HITFILM 4 EXPRESS Tutorial #1

Image
For most parts, Hitfilm 4 Express (the free professional video editing software) operates almost like Adobe Premiere Pro. However, it’s not the same when it comes to adding titles and texts. Being a special effects software, the text features in Hitfilm 4 Express is better than Premiere Pro, especially when creating animations. So here’s how to add text and titles in Hitfilm 4 Express. In the Media panel, click on “New” and select “Composite Shot”. In the dialog box, ensure that the template is the same setting as your project. In my case, it’s “1080p Full HD @ PAL 25 fps”. Then click “OK”. In the Viewer panel, select the Text Tool and click anywhere inside the viewer. In the Text Properties dialog box, click “OK”. We can come back later to change any setting.

How to Make a YouTube Video End Screen Using Templates

Image
http://www.videolane.com/youtube-end-screen-maker/ Have you noticed most YouTube videos end with clickable thumbnails that lead to other videos? On the same screen is also a subscription button. The purpose is to encourage viewers to watch your other videos and to subscribe to your channel. In the past, you had to edit the end screen yourself into the actual video. Somewhere around October 2016, YouTube made it easier to create the end screen. Let me share with you the fastest way I use this feature to make my YouTube end screen in just 10 steps. 1. Sign into your YouTube Account, click on your account icon on top, then click on Creator Studio. 2. From the left menu, select Video Manager, then Videos. 3. Find the video you want to add end screen to and click on the Edit button. 4. From the top bar, select “End screen & Annotations”. 5. Click on “Use template” button. 6. Scroll down and choose a template. I like the one with a circle between two rectangle blocks
