Editing your video
Captions
Last updated
Captions are the on-screen text of your narration. They come straight from your script, so they always match the voice. You decide how to handle them when you export.
Caption options at export
- Video only. A plain video file with no captions on screen. This is the default.
- Burned-in captions. The captions are baked into the video. They always show, on any player.
- Separate file. You get the video plus a subtitle file. You can add the captions later on a platform like YouTube.
Which to choose
- Use burned-in captions for social feeds, where many people watch with the sound off.
- Use a separate file when the platform can add captions for you.
- Use video only when you do not need captions at all.
