Adding text in Premier Pro

In Premiere Pro you can add titles or texts to your sequences. All you have to do is position your play head over the area on your timeline sequence where you want the title to start.
After that, in the menue at the top click on Title >  New title > Default still. Then you would name the file for your title.
Now a box will show up with a lot of settings you can make when you create your title. The title will be displayed on the frame where you positioned your playhead. So you can see how changed you make to the title setting will look against the appropriate background.
To actually create the title, click on the 'type' tool in the tools palette on the upper-left of the screen. Then click on the main screen and type whatever you want for the title.
You can now use the settings menus to the top right to change the font, size colour of the title. You can also add other effects such as a drop shadow and strokes.
To change the position of the title on the screen click on the selection/arrow tool in the tool palette  and click on the title to drag it around the screen.
Go to the 'Project' pane and you'll see the title you've just created listed as a file there. Click on it, hold down your mouse  and drag the title to a video track at the position on the Timeline where you want the title to appear. Release and the title you created will be displayed on the Timeline.
That's all the steps you will need to add titles into your project, enjoy!
