About this template
Visually, it comes down to square brackets on both sides of two staggered lines and nothing more. Clean geometry and quick, controlled timing give it a modern look that sits comfortably over almost any footage. It works well for biography films, educational videos and cinematic openers. Bebas Neue, a free Google Font, gives the type a compact, poster-like presence.
Open the .aep project in After Effects 2023 or later and go to the EDIT composition: double-click a text layer, type your own words and the animation follows. Instead of hunting through layers, use the Control panel with 3 color controls and a Scale slider. It is keyed at 60 frames per second, and the horizontal layout is resizable for social formats. No third-party plugins are required, and a PDF tutorial plus a font note are included.
It is free to download with a full commercial license, so you can use it in personal videos, client work, advertising and monetized channels without credit. Up to three free templates can be downloaded every 24 hours, no registration required. Explore the rest of our free title templates for After Effects, or go unlimited with Premium.
