Step 1: Start a New Project

Adding That Glowing Text Magic

Step 2: Adding Text
- Look at the bottom menu and tap on “Text.” This will bring up some options.
- Tap “Add Text” to get a text box on your video.
- Go ahead and type in your desired text. Maybe something like “Best Day Ever!” or “Hello World!”
Step 3: Adjusting Your Text
- You can resize and move the text by dragging or stretching the corners of the box. Want it bigger? Just pull it out. Want it smaller? Pinch it in.
- Don’t forget to check out the font styles! Simply tap on different fonts until you find one that screams your style – it’s like trying on different outfits until you find the perfect one.
