About this template
This minimal title is built around a square frame with thick side bars around two lines. A short build-in and a tidy exit make it easy to cut into a timeline without awkward pauses. It is especially handy for YouTube intros and YouTube Shorts, and it adapts just as easily to training videos. A clean sans-serif from Google Fonts, linked in the font note, keeps every line crisp.
Load the project in After Effects 2023 or later, change the words inside the EDIT composition and the main composition updates with them. A Control panel layer collects 5 color controls and a Scale slider, so restyling text, lines and shapes happens in one place. Motion plays at 60 fps, and the resizable horizontal layout adapts to Reels, Shorts or square posts. The download includes a step-by-step PDF tutorial and a note with the free font, and nothing beyond After Effects is required.
Commercial use is included: client edits, brand videos, paid ads and monetized content are all covered, and attribution is never required. Up to three free templates can be downloaded every 24 hours, no registration required. Browse more free After Effects title templates on Typoanim, or unlock everything with Premium.
