Make it look right

Entrance effects and text behind you.

An effect decides how each caption arrives on screen. Set one for the whole video, give a single line its own entrance, or put text behind the person in the shot.

Where to find it

  1. 1Effects

Step by step

  1. Open Effects

    In the editor, tap Effects next to the preview. What you choose here applies to every caption.

  2. Pick one

    None, Typewriter, Pop, Bounce, Zoom, Fade, Slide, Emerge, Shake or Pulse. The preview plays it straight away.

  3. One caption only

    Select a caption first, then tap Effects, to give just that line its own entrance.

  4. Text behind you

    Select a caption and switch on Behind person. The text sits behind the person in the shot. The preview shows it faded; the export renders it properly.

  1. Open Effects

    Click Effects in the left rail. Each card shows the effect moving.

  2. One caption only

    Select a caption, then choose an effect to change only that line.

  3. Text behind you

    Select a caption and switch on Behind the person.

Get more out of it

One effect per video

A single entrance across the video reads calmer than a different effect on every line. Save the special ones for the key sentence.

Emerge + behind you

Emerge pairs well with text behind the person: the words rise from behind you.

Typewriter for quotes

Typewriter suits quotes and lists, where people read along letter by letter.

Good to know

  • Text behind the person: up to 3 captions or texts and 30 seconds in total per video.
  • Images have their own effects: Fade, Pulse and Slide.
