JAKARTA - If you are a recent TikTok user and want to make a video by adding text in it, you don't need to worry because the method is quite easy.
Here's a step-by-step guide that VOI has prepared on how to add captions to your TikTok videos.
How to Add Text to TikTok VideosAdding text and text boxes to your TikTok videos is quite easy. You can do this in the same editing menu where you add effects, sounds, and stickers.
Launch the TikTok app on your mobile device. Next, capture or select the video you want to use. Once TikTok takes you to the video editing menu, tap the Text (Aa) icon at the bottom of the screen. Type the words you want to place in your video. Tap the text alignment bar just to the left of the font options to align your text to the left, right, or center. Tap Done when you are done typing and designing the text. You can then adjust the position of the text manually by dragging it across your screen. Tap Next to open the upload menu, where you can now upload or draft a captioned video.Since TikTok allows users to merge videos, if you like, you can also add captions to each merged video. You just need to perform the steps highlighted above.
You can also add a few lines of text or add a few words to your TikTok video by repeating these steps and treating each piece of text as a separate element or sticker.
How to Edit Text on TikTokIf there are errors in the text that you have created, you can edit the added text before moving to the publishing menu if more patches are needed.
To do so, you just need to tap on the captioned text and select Edit from the pop-up options. Then repeat the captions to your taste by repeating the steps to add captions to your video. Tap Done when you finish editing.
Set Duration for TikTok Video Subtitles and Make Subtitles DisappearTo be a little more creative, you can set how long the captions appear in your videos and make them disappear when people play your videos. You can even specify a point in the video, where you want the text to start appearing.
To set how long you want the words to appear in your TikTok video, use the following steps:
Tap the relevant text. Select Set duration from the options that appear. Next, drag the time slider at the bottom of the screen left or right to set the text time frame however you like. Tap the play button above the time slider to preview how the captions will appear on the video. Once you are satisfied, tap on the check mark symbol at the bottom right corner of the screen. Convert Text to Speech on Your TikTok Videos You can also convert the words you write on TikTok videos to speech if you wish to use TikTok's text-to-speech feature. This is useful for creating awareness about your TikTok videos.To achieve this, all you need to do is touch the written text and select Text-to-speech. This feature will convert all the words you write in TikTok videos into audio without erasing the original text. When you're done, you'll hear a voice repeating the words you typed in your video.
