Add the default title in Final Cut Pro for Mac

You can set a default title or a default lower third and then quickly add it to your project using a keyboard shortcut or a menu command.

Final Cut Pro comes with the default title set to Basic Title and the default lower third set to Basic Lower Third, but you can change the defaults to any title.

Add the default title or lower third

In the Final Cut Pro timeline, move the skimmer or the playhead to the frame where you want to add the default title or lower third.
Do one of the following:
- Add the default title: Choose Edit > Connect Title > [title name] (or press Control-T).
- Add the default lower third: Choose Edit > Connect Title > [lower third name] (or press Control-Shift-T).
Note: The name of the menu item changes depending on the current default title or default lower third setting.
The title or lower third is connected to the primary storyline at the skimmer or playhead position.
