How to Add, Style and Animate Text in Instagram Edits
Text on screen is one of the most powerful things you
can add to a video and most people are barely
scratching the surface of what the Edits app can do
with it.
In this video I'm walking you through the full text
tool in Instagram Edits from scratch — how to add it,
style it, position it and then make it move with
animations. Everything in one video.
In this video I'm covering:
✦ Adding text
Where the tool lives and how to get your first
line on screen
✦ Fonts
Browsing styles and picking one that fits
your content
✦ Sizing, colour and styling
The basics most people just tap around guessing —
done properly
✦ Positioning and duration
Moving text around the frame and setting how long
it stays on screen
✦ Animations
Applying animations, the different styles available
and setting in and out separately
✦ Making it feel intentional
How to time text so it feels considered not random
