You can do the title only or you can add a title and text for an introduction. Another common use of title and text features is for informative practices in educational videos and video presentations.For example, a b usiness creating a training video for employees may use titles and text to separate the video into specific segments. Additional text within those segments can help by adding important information relative to the video. This feature is really handy for instructive video formats.
