Split one frame off from the rest of the clip, then right click > Make new subclip, then drag it out as long as you want.

Rekees, copying one frame, you'll need a lot of frames for just 10 seconds of freeze frame...like 300.

I used to use a picture but VenomX's method is the best, it's easiest to do and you will have no quality loss, unlike with a pic.

Lmao...yes that is the problem...i dont know how to make the background transparent....lmao...im a really a noob at this...Well i've to learn it:)

Edit: The background should be transparent. Then i move the text media onto the clip and it has a fade effect....But the shit still turns totally black even though the background should be transparent
