The Secret Hack For Making Your iMovie Titles Really POP!

[@jrobert]

Your ability to extract feature after feature out of iMovie is nothing short of amazing.

[@illavorista]

I was thinking the same

[@ovisnews]

@@illavorista agreed... and I like how you get right to the point...no long BS intros that take for every. You get directly to the point. Very clear, very simple.

[@allblueberries]

Emphasis on free. It's overwhelming that everything requires a recurring subscription fee now. Thanks for another pro tutorial.

[@Gunprime]

Thank you sir! I knew it was probably possible. You saved me hours trying to figure it out

[@joehopper2274]

Thank you, you’re the best. I use iMovie as a hobby, mostly doing family videos. I’ve compiled a list of “Saved” KZbin iMovie Tutorials to help with creativity, yours make up the majority.

[@harrisonlenan4424]

The best channel to learn more bout imovie!

[@asia-focus]

I use upper thirds mostly because the lower thirds often gets covered by subtitles and the player controls.

[@frumitup]

Totally true, I completely spot an iMovie with the titles!!! Your tip just opened a plethora of new possibilities: thank you!!!

[@wanggang3885]

Very good teacher. You get straight to the point and make everything easy to follow.

[@RobertViani]

Outstanding presentation! No quick movements and great explanations as you go. Just subscribed & looking forward to getting more out of iMovie.

[@Simon-sly]

Always so well presented. Thank you Michael.

[@reddropresources1893]

This was so helpful in a pinch! Even better there is plenty to build off of your tutorial moving forward. Thank you!!!

[@RodrigoTorresV]

Your level of ingenuity is out of this planet 👌🏼Thank you

[@mysmartteampoweredbyproduc8765]

Fantastic! You are the clearest explainer on KZbin. Really appreciate your tutorials!

[@markimarku]

seriously, that was one of the best imovie tutorials ever... i have been SOOOOOO frustrated with the Standard lower third's lack of flexibility! THANK YOU a million times

[@KevinsDisobedience]

Freaking amazing! You’re pretty much the only reason I haven’t switched to Final Cut Pro yet. With your help, iMovie pretty much does everything I need at this point. Thanks once again.

[@MacVideoMagic]

If it's working for you, why switch? You can squeeze a lot of production value out of iMovie. Trust me, I started editing on tape... with a razor blade.

[@KevinsDisobedience]

Lol…tape and a razor blade. iMovie is a dream compared to that. And yes, it’s working so I’m not switching, but even you have to admit there are some annoying features to iMovie. For one the play back on the iPad is terrible.

[@kahunamist7866]

Your calm voice makes it easy to absorb and apply your tutorial. Thank you.

[@robertgomez3764]

Thanks a lot, this was super helpful for making some basic video edits I needed.

[@DavidDeeble]

That cut and paste tip alone is worth the 12 minutes it takes to watch this video. Thanks, Michael: fan and new subscriber!

[@Bladesofgrasslawncare]

Great tip, thanks for sharing!

[@NaythanRibi]

you earned a sub love your vids keep doing What your doing =)

[@marshallbuttersvlogs6880]

Articulate, clear and easy to understand. Thank you.

[@macjeffff]

So great, as always. I keep thinking I should use FCP, but then I realize I can do 95% of what I want in iMovie. And it's easier. But your last point puzzles me. How do I add my own custom backgrounds to use in lower thirds?

[@LewisPsychology]

Thank you. Such a detailed and useful tutorial.

[@bbates7898]

Thank you. You are a great instructor. I appreciate your techniques.

[@tinyrasoi]

Thank you so much for this tutorial. Your teaching methods are so easy to understand.

[@aaaaachew]

Your videos are absolutely brilliant. Thank you.

[@MacVideoMagic]

You're very welcome!

[@ellenshealthykitchen]

This was exactly what I was looking for. I'm making cooking videos for people following a whole food plant based diet and this worked perfectly. It worked with the blue underwater background that you used and the gradient backgrounds but I couldn't figure out why I couldn't use a solid color background to sit behind the text. But it still accomplished what I was after. THANK YOU!

[@JoshConnectMedia]

You nailed it !!!! That’s exactly what I do !!!! ❤❤

[@theguynextdoor4822]

Very insightful! Great content as always. Thanks

[@RetiredGlobalLife]

Very well done! Helpful. Thanks.

[@barryscott4551]

Again yet another fantastic iMovie tip, thanks Michael I'm making really pro looking home movie for my grandchildren following your advice.

[@cisvolk]

Again I wished I found you earlier 👍🏻 brilliant tips! Thank you so much.

[@Tom_YouTube_stole_my_handle]

Superb, very grateful for this. Something I don't understand, Picture in Picture only seems to work with some of the backgrounds in iMovie and not work with the solid colours, ie black, white, red, green, blue etc?

[@ArtMusicLife15]

OMG - I love you for this. Thank you. I couldn't get my L3rds to pop at all!!! Thank you!!!

[@buzzysboaty]

Another fantastic video. I really like iMovie and your pro tips really help me get the most out of it. Thank you very much!.

[@frankhernandez133]

Similar to moving Backgrounds under the Titles, can other Titles be moved/manipulated seconds under Titles which already take up frame space? Titles on top of other Titles (e.g. Opposing voices/Titles beginning before another has finished). If iMovie is unable to, would Keynote be a suggestion to do so?

[@lorraineh6460]

Michael, you are excellent. Please do a video on how to place a block of color ONLY behind the title, just like you do. Not a banner, but a block of color to make the title pop.I called imovie and they said not possible unless you do a picture in a picture which seems complicated. Thanks much,

[@arq.gustavoarielcaceresaya1960]

Hello, good morning, first of all I congratulate you on your videos ... they are amazing ... I would like to ask you a question ... I also make videos that I want to upload to KZbin soon but I want to make the videos with subtitles ... without speech. .. how can I do that in iMovie since I don't want to have several video editing programs

[@LetsQuest..]

That’s great solution and thanks, I was looking for it and I found it very easy and doable. I tried and works well however, other that white title text still has a white blur around texts and objects. Tried so much but can’t get exact crispy titles. Please educate me more.

[@pirol0815]

Wooow Thankyou greeting from Berlin in 🇩🇪 did you also work with Davinci Resolve?

[@kevinmcintyrecoffeeconvers1162]

I really like your teaching style. Nice pace. Some people who teach know their stuff but go way too fast. Thanks

[@raypullen3007]

Thank you for this really useful tutorial, your delivery style is perfect ,slow enough speaking that we can follow and not speeding everywhere with the cursor so fast we cannot follow it, and your I Movie skills are amazing again a big thankyou

[@MarieEveDemers]

Super video! How do I save my title though? Couldn't find the answer on Google...

[@peizhiyang4367]

very helpful! can you please explain how to add lower caps in imovie? it drives me crazy...

[@chriswood2059]

Hi Mike, thanks so much for this little gem. Right at the end you mentioned using our own custom background instead of what iMovie offers. How would we do that? Or would it require another video to explain ;-?

[@MacVideoMagic]

Just import or drag-and-drop your background into iMovie.

[@YPmath-dot-com]

Brilliant stuff, you just saved me some money, i am not buying fcp at the moment :D

[@kristymaccone7045]

Hands down the best tutorial!

[@durkhubel2650]

Exactly what I was looking for! SUBSCRIBED!

[@bettss1303]

do you have a tutoril on how to export imovie to external hard disk or how to work from an external hard disk so that i can free up my space from my pc? Thank you. I have really benefited a lot from all your tutorials.

[@jaynechilkes1769]

thank you - do you have a way for imovie to turn titles back to horizontal after making a video horizontal and then vertical instagram - all my titles are vertical on a horizontal video - thank you for any tips

[@yosoymartingarcia]

Exactly what I needed, thanks for such a great content

[@BeComingNyrell]

[@EmadApple]

Another nice video 👍

[@DanteCamacho]

This is great, thanks!

[@hablamosdelibros]

Great one, Michael. I’ve been using your low thirds using Keynote for some time. I’ll try this new way you suggest. Love this underwater background and all its possibilities. Thanks

[@shikhaandpradeep2279]

I am so lucky that I find your Channel Michael. You are amazing.

[@BrigitteCoffman]

How do you save the lower creation?

[@MacVideoMagic]

Select the lower third text and background clips, copy, create a new iMovie project. If there's no clip on the timeline, place a black background clip there, paste your lower third text and custom background.

[@handiman5]

Great tips! Presented well & easy to understand! Thank you.

[@VenYonten]

Tips on adding subtitles quickly in iMovie?

[@michele2017promastertravel]

You have the best videos. Thanks for making us all look good.

[@hosannamusicindia]

Hey @macvideomagic. Thank you for this. But how do i add my logo on such lower third background? when i pull in my logo it removes the lowerthird from its place and the logo just does not sit inside the backgound. It only accepts texts. Any solutions to do this?

[@MacVideoMagic]

Let me look into it. May be a quick tutorial, there.

[@dodol.pandan]

anyone know how to add paragraph or more text in Title? any workaround?

[@pksteffen]

Genius and well explained. Thank you!

[@MG-wt3di]

Very interesting idea ). Thank you!

[@thatswhatisaidCA]

Aw, this is so good! Great timing for me. I've just discovered you a couple of days ago, and am thrilled I have found you. I stepped away from making YT vids but I'm coming back; I thought I just needed a refresher, but these tips and tricks open up my whole world, haha. Thank you so much! (Hi from Canada!) (of course I subscribed)

[@MacVideoMagic]

Hello from Canada!

[@ramisolipe7001]

I am always waiting your next video,

[@cgdoublezerorc]

Well, I'll be. Thanks for this awesome lesson. 00

[@dr.ramenglish3651]

You have great sense of teaching Michael

[@acousticguitarcanada]

OMG... another brilliant lesson. This time I had to find out, who the heck you are! Ah Ryerson RTA, (I studied @ Photo Arts) I've done some teaching in my career... but compared to you I'm not worthy.

[@MacVideoMagic]

Well, greetings, Alum! I must admit, my video instruction skills come from 12 years working in educational television at TVO. Do a search on KZbin for Inquiring Minds TVO and you'll see what I mean.

[@KeyvanGeula]

How do I copy the lower third title I create to copy and use late?

[@Texascarnivore]

You are amazing. So glad I found your channel.

[@RingOfAction]

I learned a ton from this. thanks a lot!

[@deanniejanowitz5560]

Excellent - thank you!!

[@jaredb5337]

didn't work for the black color.

[@GK-ec5df]

How can I move the title box where I want rather than have it stuck where the titles originally have it? Right now, my only thought for a work around is to bring a PNG title in as picture in picture. Hope that works but there has to be an easier way.

[@MacVideoMagic]

Unfortunately, with iMovie titles, you're stuck with where they're placed. All you can do is find a title with the positioning you want.

[@WalterOttoimagenes]

Super great video thanks

[@MarkB-]

Fantastic idea! Thanks!

[@aumkarnathmishra2091]

In India September 5th is celebrated as teacher's day. I am really interested to send a bouquet to you on that day.. You are such a wonderful teacher.
