Learn how to ADD TEXT or a TITLE to Video using the Type Tool in Premiere Pro CC 2023. In this tutorial for beginners, I will go through all the text adjustments you can make in both Effect Controls and the Essential Graphics Panel (including font, scale, kerning, underline, fill stroke, background, shadow, mask with text, align and transform). I will also explain how to add more text (within the same Graphic element), how to copy, re-use and update text that you like, and how to save your designs as graphic templates for future use.
