The technique is pOV title in the platform's style: frames the clip as a moment, in the feed's own handwriting. How it works: a two-line title that starts with POV in the platform's own text style, white with a black stroke, in the top fifth for the first half of the video. It is right for: selfie diaries, relatable openers. Be concrete: numbers, seconds and settings, no theory. Ask me one question first if something you need is missing.
