To add the title clip to your sequence:
1 In your sequence in the Timeline, set your destination track.
If you place the title clip on a track that’s above another track, the lower clip appears as
the background to the title.
2 Set the In and Out points.
3 Click the Video tab in the Viewer, then drag the title clip from the Viewer to the Canvas
or Timeline.
Other Options for Creating and Adding Titles
If a title you have in mind is something you can’t create with the available text
generators, you can use other methods to create titles and incorporate them into your
sequence:
 Using Photoshop files or stills for titles: If a title you really want is best created in another
application such as Photoshop, you can create it there and add it to your sequence as a
still image. An easy way to bring an image file into your sequence is to simply drag it
from your desktop to a project tab or bin in the Browser. See Chapter 17, “Working With
Still Images and Photographs,” on page 335 for a number of useful things to consider
when importing still images and photographs into your movie.
 Using LiveType titles: You can create many different kinds of titles in LiveType and
import them directly into Final Cut Pro. For more information, see “Using LiveType to
Create Titles for Your Project,” next.
 Using titles created in Motion: Motion allows you to create complex text animations,
and supports LiveFonts.
