Import your video into the timeline and then go to “Titles” and select “Filmstock.” Search for openers and keep looking until you find the one you want. Drag and drop the title into the start of the timeline and double-click on it to start editing the opener. Change the template’s text and add your own by clicking on the text in front of the “T” icon in the “Basic” settings.
