Adding Subtitles to Videos with the Movavi Video Editor Review

Many videos come with subtitles for the simple reason that it allows you to give the viewer a visual method of seeing what is being said. That way they will be able to follow the video even if they mishear a certain part of it, or if they can’t make out what’s being said for whatever reason. Although you might be a bit apprehensive about trying to add subtitles to your video – the fact of the matter is that using the Movavi Video Editor it really isn’t all that complicated at all.

As you may already know, the features of the Movavi Video Editor are designed to be as accessible and intuitive as possible – and adding subtitles is no different. In fact, all you need to do to add subtitles to MP4 or any other type of video is:

1. Add the video to the Movavi Video Editor by clicking on the ‘Add Media Files’ button and selecting it.
2. Go to the ‘Media’ tab and drag and drop the video into the ‘Timeline’ so that you can start to edit it.
3. Click on the ‘Titles’ button and you’ll see numerous static (or animated) styles of text that you can use for your subtitles. To preview any of them, just click on the corresponding icon.
4. When you’ve chosen a style of text that you feel will be ideal for your subtitles, position the red marker in your ‘Timeline’ where you want them to appear and then right-click the text icon and select the ‘Add to the Title Track’ option.
