Adding text to your video is a great way to highlight key messages and keep your audience engaged. With AI Studios, customizing text is simple and intuitive, allowing you to align it with your video’s style and branding. Here’s a step-by-step guide to adding and customizing text in your video projects.

Step 1: Add Text to Your Video

  1. Open the Text Menu
    In the AI Studios video editor, click on the Text button located on the left-hand side of the menu bar.

  2. Choose a Text Style
    After clicking the Text button, three default text options will appear. These are the starting points for your text:

    • Title: Large, bold text for headings.

    • Subtitle: Slightly smaller text for secondary information.

    • Body Text: Standard size for descriptions or paragraphs.

    These options are just the default settings and can be customized to fit your video’s design.

Step 2: Enter and Position Your Text

  1. Type in Your Text
    Click on the text box and type what you want to display in your video.

  2. Move the Text Box
    To move the text, click and hold the text box, then drag it to the desired position on the screen.

  3. Resize the Text Box
    To change the size of the text box, click and drag the corners of the text box to expand or shrink it. This helps you fit the text perfectly into your design.

Step 3: Customize Your Text Appearance

  1. Change the Font
    After selecting your text box, you’ll see options to choose from a variety of fonts. You can pick a font that suits the mood and style of your video.

    Note: If you're on a Team plan, you can upload custom fonts to maintain brand consistency across all your projects.

  2. Adjust Text Size
    Enter the desired text size in the input box or select one from the dropdown menu.

  3. Align the Text
    Choose the alignment that works best for your design:

    • Left Align: Aligns the text to the left.

    • Center Align: Centers the text in the middle.

    • Right Align: Aligns the text to the right.

    This helps position your text neatly within the frame and works with the layout of your video.

Step 4: Style and Color Your Text

  1. Change the Font Color
    You can change the color of your text to match your video’s aesthetic. You can:

    • Use the color picker to select a color.

    • Enter a Hex Code for precise color matching, perfect for brand colors.

  2. Add a Stroke to the Text
    Add an outline around your text for better visibility. You can adjust the thickness (stroke width) of the outline to make your text stand out more.

  3. Apply Highlight or Background Color
    You can create a shaded box around your text for added emphasis. Customize:

    • Padding: Controls the space between the text and the edges of the highlight box.

    • Corner Radius: Adjusts the roundness of the corners of the highlight box.
