Animate text in Premiere Pro: keyframes and Typewriter
Set a precise landing with two keyframes, reveal letters with Typewriter, and keep the title animation intact through a late trim.
Jack Sullivan covers Premiere Pro from the bin structure to the export queue: proxies, multicam sync, sequence settings, captions and delivery. He finds the cause before suggesting a reset.

Set a precise landing with two keyframes, reveal letters with Typewriter, and keep the title animation intact through a late trim.

Import a licensed song onto its own track, fit it to the picture and lower it under speech with fades, clip keyframes or Ducking. Check the whole mix before delivery.

Choose the microphone in Audio Hardware, then confirm the recording track hears the right channel. Make a short take before committing the full narration.

Build a gradual speed change on one clip, use its recorded frames well, then check the picture and sound across the ramp.

Place a dissolve at the cut, adjust its length and alignment, and check the unused frames that keep both shots moving. Includes audio crossfades and default transitions.

Cut at the playhead with Ctrl + K or Cmd + K, choose the tracks and remove a middle section without leaving a gap. Includes linked audio, Sync Lock and undoing a through edit.

Create a layer above the footage, trim it to the intended cuts and add one shared look. Keep frame coverage, effect strength and picture opacity separate.

The Type tool puts words on the picture as a clip of their own. Style them in the Properties panel, keep them inside title safe, set when they arrive and leave, and retype every title from one list when the cut changes.
