- [Roberto] Hey everybody, this is Roberto Blake
of RobertoBlake.com, helping you create something
awesome today.
So today we have another Adobe Premiere Pro tutorial,
I'm actually gonna show you how to make a simple motion
title in Premiere Pro, this is something that you don't
need to do in After Effects, although that could definitely
be interesting and I might cover that in the future.
But I'm gonna show you how you can use the resources
you already have and make some awesome motion title
sequences and intros for your YouTube videos,
for your vlogs, so, let's go ahead and get started.
One of the first things we're gonna do is I'm gonna
go ahead and select some footage.
I can either select this or, actually I think I do want
the footage from the passenger side window here,
because I think that's gonna actually work the best
for this particular tutorial.
And what I'm gonna do is I'm actually going to select
just a certain amount of the footage because it's gonna
create just something interesting, and then I'm then
I'm gonna put the text over it.
So I'm gonna select an input area and an output area,
and this is enough for us to work with to kind of make
the point and to have something to overlay our text on
for our intro.
And we're just gonna slide that to the beginning
of the timeline there.
Alright, so we have our initial footage and we need to put
some type on top of it.
That's gonna end up here on the second video track.
So what I'm gonna do is I'm going to go to File, New Title,
you can also use the shortcut CTRL + T, and you can do that,
there's also the ability to go over to wherever your bin is,
and you can go ahead and you can click New Item,
and you can click Title and that will do it too,
and we're gonna just call this Intro Title.
That's pretty straightforward.
And what this is gonna do is this gets us into
the Title panel.
And here we have a lot of different things going on.
One of the things we have is we do have the ability
to kind of see what our overall image is going to be
as far as our video that we're making our title sequence
over, and then down here in the panel we also have
Title Styles, and so you can go in and you can pick
from the default styles, or you can use the Title Properties
here to adjust it on your own.
So again these are just some things that make it simple.
I'm going to actually pick Brush Script here, and I don't
know if we'll keep this font and we may adjust some things.
But then I'm going to go to the Safety Margins here
on the video so that doesn't end up out of screen.
I'm gonna select Center, and I'm going to title this,
New Adventures in Vlogging.
(keyboard keys clicking)
Then I'm going to select this and then I can adjust
the font size, I can do that over here, or I can do that
over here and I can do it either by typing in the number
value or by just dragging it like so.
And you see that I know that that's centered,
I know it's within the margins of safety here,
and that's actually working out pretty well.
So I'm gonna go ahead and I'm going to decide that that's
perfectly fine.
Now if I want to I could obviously change some things here,
I could change the fill color by selecting it here,
and I could change that to red for example which isn't
gonna work for us, so we're gonna keep that white.
We can affect the Opacity, the Drop Shadow, we could affect
any number of things, the Tracking, the Kerning, all of it.
So we do have options here, we could even affect the Leading
which is, or Leading depending on how you want to pronounce
it which in typography is the space between lines as far as
our vertical lines here.
So that's going to allow us to make this title what we
want it to look like.
Once we've done that, this shows up in our bin in the way
that we labeled it which is New Adventures in Vlogging
intro title, so we're gonna drag that to the second
video track here.
I'm gonna zoom in on this a little bit more.
And so when we play this you can see that it just
automatically shows up.
And then it disappears.
That's not exactly what we want, and I also want to show
you something that will make this more visible,
just depending on what you're doing, we actually covered
this in another tutorial that I would encourage you
to check out, where we actually use the Lumetri color panel
and I'm gonna do that again here just to ultimately
adjust my video so that it will blend with my title sequence
a little better.
So one of the things I'm gonna do is, here we have
the title sequence, I'm going to place a hard cut here,
and I'm also going to place a transition.
So I'm gonna go to my Effects panel.
And I'm gonna choose Cross Dissolve.
So that transition takes place, I'm also going to put
a Cross Dissolve at the end of this here, and what I'm
gonna do is I'm going to slide this to where they kind
of happen simultaneously.
The reasoning for this is that using the Lumetri color panel
and we could do this with an adjustment layer by moving
this to track three and we could do it this way,
but just for the sake of simplicity, I'm going to use
the Lumetri color panel to affect this footage
and to ultimately make it just a little bit easier to read.
So I can do that either by reducing the Exposure here, or,
if I want, I can go to the Curves, I can go to the Curves,
and I can adjust here in whatever way I want,
whether it's making things darker or brighter,
I can go ahead and I can adjust the curves accordingly
to just make the text show up more visibly here.
And what's gonna happen is as I transition, we get the full
color and then I can do whatever I want to that footage,
like if I thought that footage would actually look better
brighter and more vibrant, then I can go ahead and I can
make that adjustment, and as the title fades it fades
into that, so that's convenient.
But now we need to add some motion to this so it doesn't
just appear, which is fine for it to just pop in like that,
but it's not the ultimate goal of what we're doing here
with the video, so I want to create some kind of motion
for this, something that could be interesting or subtle.
So we're gonna click on this, and then we're going to go
to our Effects Control Panel and we're going to look
at Motion.
So we have some interesting options here.
Using the positioning we can adjust this, we can have
it become larger in terms of scale, but let's look at
where we would want it to actually start.
And I think I want it to actually start here.
So what I'm going to do is I want it to look exactly
like this, so I'm going to go ahead and click Position
And Scale so that no matter what we do at the beginning
this is what we end up with in terms of result.
As for Positioning, you can adjust it where it comes in
from the side by moving the numbers here on the left.
You can undo that, or, you can make it come from top
or bottom by adjusting these numbers over here on the right.
And in this case I think I want it to actually come
from the top.
So let's go ahead and see what happens.
I also want that to happen a little bit faster.
So I'm gonna move it closer together in the timeline.
So when we play it back, this is what we get.
So that's a simple fly in or drop in, however you want
to phrase that, and that's a very simple way to do this
motion graphics effect.
Now let's assume for a moment that we're fine with that,
but once it's in, we want it to slowly over time to get
just a little bit larger.
We can go ahead and we can add another keyframe as far as
Scale here, and we can go ahead and we can increase
that subtley, and I only want to increase it subtley
by another 10% or so.
So what you'll see happen here is that this flies in
and then it gets subtley bigger and it fades out,
and then the clip starts.
So again, this is how you can create a motion graphics
title and intro sequence in Premiere Pro pretty simply.
There are a lot of other techniques and things you could
throw in here, but ultimately this is one of the simplest
and straightforward things you can do to make an interesting
video, you can do this with wedding videos, you can do this
with your vlogs, and this is just a really fast way
to make a little cool intro title sequence for whatever
you're making.
Well I hope you guys enjoyed this, remember, I have a lot

on the channel, everything from the basics of how you do
video editing and approach it, things with color grading
and color correction, and I'll be doing some more
small tutorials like this showing you individual tools
and techniques, if you have questions
