Animate text in your video from the Animate tab

From this tab, choose an animation effect from the options under "Animation". 

Select your text and click on the name of the animation you want to apply. Use the Speed slider to control how fast the effect looks in the video.

Toggle on "Enter & Exit" to apply a looped effect to your text: e.g., if you select 'Fall' to animate your text, the text will fall into the design and then disappear by falling upward, as if in reverse, toward the end of the video play time.

Change fonts, text size, color

Select the text you want to modify, and from the "Edit" tab, change the font face, size, weight and lettering spacing.

From here you can also change the color of the text itself, as well as add a background fill to the text box (use "Background").

Resize Text

Scale text on the canvas by selecting it and using the bounding box to resize it. 

Or, select the text on the canvas and change the font size by selecting a number under "Size".
