Remove Opening Credits from a Scene
I'm creating a reel, and one of the clips has text crawl on the bottom left of the screen. Any way to get rid of the text on imovie?

As I understand it you have a title (text) embedded in a clip that you imported into an iMovie project, and you want to get rid of the title.
You can crop out the title or overlay a screen shot from the clip on top of the title to hide it.
We start out with the clip showing the text:
One way to get rid of the text is to use the crop tool at the Crop to Fit setting to crop out the title:
Another way is to take a screen shot (Command>Shift>4) of a portion of the clip on the preview screen, and then overlay it with the Picture in Picture feature to block out the title.
Here's the screen shot of a portion of the clip taken taken from the Preview screen:
Then use Picture in Picture to overlay the screen shot to block out the title:
