Add professional opening and closing credits to your videos with Descript. Choose from a variety of styles—from animated lower-thirds to traditional rolling credits—for your movie, music video, YouTube sketch, or any collaborative video project. It's the best way to credit the people who made your video possible.
Get started ->
Drag and drop your video file into a new Descript project to upload it. A transcript will be automatically generated in which you can add a ‘/’ where you want your credits to start and end.
You can create credits from scratch using the Text tool or go to Templates > Gallery > Titles and choose a style for your credits—like lower-thirds text for opening credits or a rolling animation for closing credits. Structure your credits and input the names and contributions you want to acknowledge. You can also customize the background music, fonts, colors, visual effects, animations, and transitions to spice up your video credits.
Press play to preview your video with its new credits, and Hit Publish when you’re happy with the result. You have the option to publish directly to video platforms like YouTube, download the entire video or just the credit scenes, or export your timeline from Descript to add the finishing touches in another editing software.
Opening & closing credits viewers won’t skip
Who says your end credits scene has to be a boring black background with white text? Descript offers more flexibility than most video credit maker tools. That’s because it’s a fully-featured video editor packed with stock media, AI actions, voice cloning, effects, animations, templates, and more.
