Editing & Refining your message is easy with Lumen5, with the simple editing tools on the right hand side of each 'scene' in your storyboard.

Lumen5 will automatically restrict the amount of wording, so if you have selected text that's too long, it will create another 'frame' for that 'scene.'

Use the Preview button to see how the video will look.

Click on the text options, to change the text from plain text to a quote, a picture with no text, or a title.

To improve the readability of the text you can opt to show the text with a black background (black bar on/off)

Also you can highlight specific words in your text to make your key messages stand out.

When you are happy with the layout of your text and storyboard, you can then add music.
