STEP TWO

The next step would be to go to Typito’s template gallery. Go to the search bar and type in - ‘stencil’. This search reveals four different options of stencil templates - these are text templates that support placing videos within them. We choose this one - the music stencil.

Adjust the template according to your requirements - placed in the center or over the entire screen. The template placement and sizing are completely customizable according to your requirements.

STEP FOUR

A crucial part of the process is choosing the right word or sentence to add to the stencil. If it is an introduction to your video - It can be the title of your video. Whereas if it is the end - words such as Subscribe, Comment down below fit in perfectly.

A key aspect to keep in mind is to make sure that the word, as well as the video in the background, compliment each other.

Change the color of the stencil to a color that is easily seen and a good contrast to the video in the background. If you want the background video to be seen - decrease the opacity of the template.

The duration of the template can also be adjusted in the timeline by dragging the markers to the position and duration that you choose. Also, add in the animations just to add a little flair.
