On Pictory, there are many ways to customize your scenes, and text boxes are one of the most versatile tools for achieving unique layouts. In this article, we’ll guide you through different ways to use text boxes to create visually appealing scenes.
1. Title Scene
A title scene typically features large, bold text that grabs attention. You can achieve this with just one text box, as shown in the screenshot below.
2. Scene with Heading and Subheading
This layout uses two text boxes: one for a large, prominent heading and another for a smaller, descriptive subheading below it. These are often styled as decor boxes to enhance the design.
3. Scene with Captions Alone
For scenes with only captions, repositioning the text box can significantly improve the aesthetics. Moving it away from the default lower third placement can give your video a fresh look.
4. Scene with Numbers
You can highlight numeric values or create bullet-pointed layouts using text boxes. This is a great way to make lists or emphasize key data, as demonstrated in the example below.
5. Scene with Quotes
Text boxes are perfect for quotes. You can combine multiple text boxes to create a visually balanced layout for the quote and its attribution, to give your scene a polished appearance.
6. Scene with Text in Columns
A multi-column text arrangement can transform the look of your video. By adding multiple text boxes to a single scene, you can create as many text columns as needed for your desired layout.
With text boxes, the possibilities for customizing your scenes on Pictory are virtually endless. Whether you want to highlight a title, emphasize numbers, or arrange text in columns, text boxes give you the flexibility to design scenes that stand out.
