Bump Basic Title
Did you know about this Title Effect?
Recently I was looking around at some different text plugins for Final Cut Pro X. I saw one that someone had that blurred out the background and had text in the foreground. The effect made the text stand out and the whole effect took about 8-seconds.
I thought it was a really cool way to present text in front of a video.
I decided against buying it, but bookmarked the website so in the future, I would get it.
It was a good thing that I waited. Turns out there's a built-in effect that works perfectly well for my needs. It's called, "Bump Basic."
Example Video
In this video, the "Worcester Express Train" is using the text effect that I was looking for. This is called "Bump Basic" and located in the Social Category.
Look Around the Text Options
One of the things I learned from this, is to play around more with the text options. I did search for "blur" thinking that it would be under that name.
There are more than 150 built-in titles to choose from. Each one having the ability to change the font style, color, and location on the screen.
