How to make animated titles in Premiere Pro (2026 guide)

Why Animated Titles Make a Difference

A good title isn't just text over the video: it's the first thing that captures the viewer's attention in the initial seconds. In reels, YouTube intros, and video clips, a well-paced animated title can be the difference between someone continuing to watch or scrolling past. The bad news is that animating titles from scratch in After Effects or Premiere Pro takes time and knowledge of keyframes, expressions, and timing. The good news is that there are ready-to-use title packs that you can drag and drop.

The Three Ways to Add Titles in Premiere Pro

Before buying anything, it's worth understanding your options:

  • Native text tool: quick for a static title, but limited for complex animations.
  • Essential Graphics templates (.mogrt): imported into the Essential Graphics tab and edited without leaving Premiere. Ideal for editors who don't want to touch After Effects.
  • After Effects projects: maximum flexibility and quality, designed for those who want total control over each animation.

How to Install a Title Pack in Premiere Pro

If you choose a pack in .mogrt format, the process is simple:

  • Open Premiere Pro and go to Window → Essential Graphics.
  • In the panel, click the Install Motion Graphics Template icon.
  • Select the .mogrt files from the pack.
  • Drag the desired title to your timeline and edit the text directly.

In less than a minute, you'll have a professional animated title, without touching a single keyframe.

What to Look for in a Quality Title Pack

Not all packs are created equal. These are the points that separate a professional one from a generic one:

  • Clear compatibility with your version of Premiere Pro, After Effects, or DaVinci Resolve.
  • Variety of styles (minimalist, kinetic, 3D) so you don't always repeat the same thing.
  • Included updates, so the pack continues to work when you update the software.
  • Real support if something doesn't load correctly.
