Text To Stream One Line Across the Video

Hello
An area of the video with compromised  audio is with static because of a poor audio line feed.
This area is 10 minutes. I have the text of what is spoken in this segment.


How do I insert 100 words of text at the bottom of the video so that the text will flow along in concert with the speaker's vocals? One line - streaming.

When I insert the text I have one block covering the whole of the video frame. 

Need help on this.

Thanks

    Hey there, @Ezad,
    Thanks for the movie. I believe I see a step that you are missing in that movie. At around :44, with the playhead situated at the end of the clip in the timeline, I noticed you did not drag the text block across to the other side of the Program Monitor. Everything else was done in the right step order. See if that doesn't work for you. Please let us know. Thanks again and have fun editing.

     

    Cheers,
    Kevin

    Hi @Ezad,

    Thanks for the message. You would have to animate the crawl manually. Have you attempted that yet? Use the text tool to click in the Program Monitor. Paste the text there. Use the Properties panel to reposition the text off-screen to the right. Position the playhead at the beginning of the clip. Click the stopwatch for Position to set initial keyframes. Move the playhead to the end of the clip. Drag the text to the other side of the Program Monitor. Press Shift to constrain it to the same "X" value. Now play the animation back. Is that working for you? Please let the community know if this works for you or if you need more information. I hope that advice helped you.

     

    Cheers,

    Kevin

    I put a cut at the start and a cut and the end

    I then followed the instructions however when I pressed Shift nothing happened.

    In the video's description area is the text. When I insert the text as expected the text fills up as one paragraph.

    Thus the expectation was as described in this lesson that when I dragged the text to the end point, hit Shift, there should have been one line flowing from the start to the end - the text material.

    Thanks
