This document provides a step-by-step guide to adding title graphics in Adobe Premiere editing software. It explains how to open a project, select the section to add a title, create a new title graphic, rename the title, select font styles and placement on screen. Finally, it describes repeating the process to add the main film title at the end, choosing colors and styles to make it stand out and look dramatic for the target audience.
2. In this presentation we are going to be
showing you how to add title graphics to
a film using Adobe Premiere editing
software. It’s going to be a simple step
by step guide that anyone can follow.
3. Firstly, you have to open up your project
on Adobe Premiere. Go to the section of
the film where you want to add title
graphics. Take your curser up to the tool
bar and select title. A drop down list will
appear and you need to select “New
Title”. A second list will appear, as you can
see from the print screen to the right, and
select “Default Still…”. This will lead you
onto the next step.
4. Secondly, you can see a new table
appear. You have to rename the title
graphics that you want to add in the
selected area on your two minute
psychological thriller sequence. As
you can see from the print screen on
the right, we named our one tester
just for an example. Make sure you
don’t change any of the settings as
they are already set for you to use,
just change the name and click ok
for the next step.
5. This is the exciting section of
the whole procedure. You can
let your creative juices flow as
you can select where to place
your title graphic/s, font colour,
font style and font size. As you
can see from the print screen,
there is a variety of styles of
font to choose from. We
decided to a black and white,
subtle font as we wanted the
audience to focus on the
action in the film.
6. Finally, when you have created
your title graphics you have to add
the most important title , which is
the title of the film. To do this you
have to follow the whole procedure
again and open a new title, you
can do this by following the first
three steps. As you can see from
the print screen on the right, we
choose to place our main title at
the end of our psychological thriller.
We choose to have a black
background, red and white font in
the centre. This is so that it stands
out to our target audience and
makes it look more dramatic.
