yes, there are lots of title overlay options... but you need to type in all

Hi Bernardo
Step by step
1) Select the clip that you want the captions to start on
2) Click "Make titles or credits" in the left task pane under the [Edit
Movie] Movie Task list
3) Click "Add title on the selected clip in the timeline"
4) Type in the text you want to appear in the caption in the textbox. If the
text box is a double box only type in the top one since the title animation
you want is only a single line animation.
5) Click "Change the title animation"
6) Select the title animation you want to use from the list. For your
situation I recommend either "Ticker Tape" or "Subtitle"
7) Click "Change the text font and color" Here you can change the font,
background color, foreground color, and transparency.
8) After making your changes click "Done, add title to movie"
The text will now appear over the clip you selected. You can do this again
on other clips as often as necessary to get the desired effect.
