Step 3: Add Keyframe to Animate Text


So far we have added text and its position but we are not done here because to make text move in inshot, we need to set a keyframe in a video timeline. Keyframes serve as markers for the starting and ending points of any moving object so we use them to animate text in inshot.

To set keyframe, tap on the timeline of the text, and you will see the keyframe icon along with a plus (+) sign. This indicates that you can add a keyframe.

Let me add keyframe at the starting point of the text.

As you can see now it shows (-) sign which means the keyframe is activated. If you ever need to remove a keyframe, simply tap on minus (-) sign, allowing you to delete that specific keyframe.

Similar to the first keyframe, you will see – sign.
