Titles, transforms, keyframes, and easing

Keyframes store parameter values at specific times. Resolve interpolates between them. A useful animation draws attention to content while maintaining readability.

Work through it

1. Add a basic title to V2 over a shot. Use the Inspector to set a clear typeface, readable size, and restrained placement within safe areas.
2. Select the title or clip and move the playhead to its start. Enable a keyframe for a transform parameter, such as Position. Move later in time and change that parameter to create a second keyframe.
3. Open the available keyframe or curve controls. Compare linear motion with eased motion. Watch the complete entrance at normal speed and reduce movement if it competes with the footage.
4. Check the title over the brightest and darkest frames. Add restrained background separation if needed, then preview a phone-sized version of the output.

Your turn

Create a lower third with a name and role. Keep it readable for at least three seconds, with a short eased entrance and no overlap with important faces.
