Add titles to an iMovie project
To add a title, just select it and drag it onto the part of your video where you want to add it. You can place the title over an existing video clip, or before, after, or between video clips.
If you add a title to an empty part of your project, you must choose a background for it.
Change the length of iMovie titles
Once a track is in your project, you can adjust its length by dragging the end or the beginning. You can also change the duration by double-clicking the inspector to open it and typing the number of seconds you want the title to appear on screen in the Duration field.
A title can only be as long as the video below it. Therefore, you may need to adjust the length of the video clips or the background behind your title before lengthening it.
In the inspector you can also show or hide the title or change the type of title used.
