Title safe area – changing the colour???

[Tom Wolsky]

Good feature request. It’s not there now, unless you use a graphic with transparency to overlay.

All the best,

Tom

[Lawrence Eaton] “outrageous red or bodacious blue, for instance? (not that pantone would condone those titles, but they work for me).”

Not sure about Pantone, but Maybeline might like them.

Hi Lawrence

Here you go – you can pick your colours to your heart’s content … I’ve picked some suitably garish ones to get you going!

Note this is an Adjustment Layer effect and should be installed in your User/Motion Templates/Titles folder.

Or you might prefer this version where you can turn off the individual elements – for added fun 😉

Simon,
Many many thanks – they work wonderfully!

Thanks, Lawrence.

You might prefer to try this newer, improved version (with more accurate measurements than the previous one):

It also includes the option to show a couple of different adjustable grids as well as the Safe Title/Action option – which I always find useful for lining up graphics.

Plus everything can be coloured as gaudily as you see fit! Which is after all the main consideration!
