Adding Titles & Captions

Q. What are Captions and how are they different from Title Pages?

A caption is text that appears on screen and is used to provide names, descriptions and other information about the photo. Title pages are used to separate sections of your video. For example, you could add a title to a section called “Before the children were born.”

Q. How do I add titles and captions to my slideshow?
A. 
To make your slideshow more entertaining and help the audience follow the story being told, you can add captions to your video album. We can incorporate any descriptive information you send us. Unless you’re using an important quote or poem, it is best to keep your captions short and sweet! Fewer than 10 words works best. A caption is a label or quote next to one specific photo.
