Final Touches

A little extra effect on your PNG Titles will make them much more interesting to watch for their 5 second duration. We'll look at keyframing one value on the Fast Color Corrector that will make Titles fluctuate in hue. After that we just need to add some credits at the end and export our video!

Collecting Websites

Step 1

Prepping a List of URLs

Before we make the credits, we need a list of websites we are going to thank for the images. The hyperlinks in Word are the easiest to get to, but we also have them in the Comments field when we examine the details with File Explorer.

Scrolling Text Box

Step 2

Roll Credits - Part 1

Premiere has special tools to "Roll Credits" - we just need a large text box filled with a "thank you" statement the list of websites where the picture came from to copy/paste.


Roll Credits - Part 2

Once your text box is made and scrolling up the screen, we will change some settings to smooth out the movement, creating a nice polished finish for our video.

Polish to Professional

Step 3

Edit Your Caption Text

The first part to polishing up your text is to review all the text after double-clicking on a caption and fix any errors. Clearly misspelled words are underlined in red but things like the lowercase "i" also need to be changed. Check credits too!

Move and Resize Captions

The second part is to position each one either at the top or bottom of the safe margin. Captions should be a single line of text inside the larger "safe margin" box - no orphans allowed. Simplify the wording as needed! Do not cover important parts of the image, which means watching the animation to see which of the two positions is better. The image is the star of the show.

Extras

Step 2

Animate PNG Titles

If your Titles are PNGs, we can't reposition or scale our Titles - they just sit there. With one set of keyframes on a Video Effect called "Fast Color Corrector", we can make the hue angle change from 0 to 360 degrees. This makes the colors change for 5 seconds... much better!
