Create Cinematic Titles That Feel Like Hollywood

The title sequence for your film or video project is critical to establishing the tone for your video. A well-designed title sequence can make your video appear much more polished.

One of the most popular techniques for creating cinematic titles is tracking animation. This technique expands the tracking of each letter in your title. This effect is popularly used in movie trailers, brand commercials, documentaries, and cinematic intros for a more upscale and professional look.

Final Cut Pro does not allow for keyframing of the tracking of letters within your title. This is one of the limitations that the Cinematic Tracking Title for Final Cut Pro was created to solve.

What Is Tracking Animation?

Tracking animation involves changing the spacing between the letters in your title. You can adjust the tracking of the letters in your title so that it appears to expand or contract.

This effect can be used for a variety of projects:

• Movie title sequences
• Documentary introductions
• Brand commercials
• Corporate presentations
• Luxury product advertisements
• Cinematic YouTube intros
• Wedding films
• Travel videos

As the tracking of the letters in your title changes, the title maintains its size. This makes for a more elegant, professional look for your titles without overly drawing the viewer’s attention away from the video.

Tips for Better Cinematic Results

To get the most out of the tracking animation for your title, use these tips:

• Use slow animation speeds to even out the look of the title.
• Fade the title in and out for a more premium look.
• Choose a font that stands out the least and uses as few typographical elements as possible.
• Give your title space to breathe in the video composition.
• Sync your title to the soundtrack to allow the audience to focus on the video’s content and not the title.
• Do not overdo the tracking animation for your title.
