Speaker 1: Hey everyone, the day has finally come. We have dynamic captions inside of Premiere. We can get our projects done from start to finish. Let's give a big hand to the Adobe staff that have been implementing this. That's not quite true. Really what it is, is that there is a plugin now for Premiere that someone has created. If you go to captioneer.tv and it is awesome. So I have been looking for quite a while for a way to get this done inside Premiere. From what I've been doing now is essentially exporting and either taking it into CapCut or one of the other nine that I looked at. It was Veed or these captions.com, whatever it is, right? Like there's so many of these little AI caption things, but you don't get any control. It just kind of does what it does. And this I found on a Reddit thread. I think the guy who like worked on it and made it posted on Reddit and I was like, how has this not been a bigger thing? Because I'm so tired of leaving Premiere to try to finish a project. Here's another thing that I love about it. I'm not sponsored by this at all. I just happened to find it and I'm like, it is changing the way that I can work. So as you can see, there's tons of different types of captions you can do in here. I mean, not tons, tons. There's like 10 different kinds, 11, 12. There's a dozen or so. There's not a lot. It says 10 right here, but he just added like a Mr. B style one for free that came in an email. So as you can see, there's the normal subscription. Everyone wants to charge a subscription for this. It's usually seven to 10 bucks a month. If you pay yearly, you can get a little lower, but normally it's at least $10 a month. Sometimes it's up to 20 bucks a month. Look at that lifetime. Oh, look at that sweet, sweet one time pay. That is incredible. Guys, I can't tell you how 10 months and then you never pay again. Like that's 10 months worth of the software and then you never have to pay again. That's awesome. I'm really happy that the person who created this decided to have that as an option. It's not pricing people out of being able to buy it. It's incredible. So we're going to go down into Premiere. We're going to open a project. We're going to go to our captions and graphics window. We're going to come into our text panel. We're going to go to transcript. We're going to transcribe it. Okay, that would normally be here. I just barely finished transcribing this. And as you can see, we have our transcription. You're going to go ahead and if you need to, you can click this edit pen tool and you can go ahead and edit any of the text in here to make sure that it's correct. And then we're going to go to the caption panel and we're going to say, create captions from transcript. Now for me, I'm doing a social media style, portrait mode version of this. So when I come into captioning preferences, actually, that's fine. Yeah, okay. And then did I miss something out? Yeah, here we go. Create captions. So that's going to create captions. It's going to automatically, you can see them here on my timeline. We now have captions at the right times for everything, which is great. This is cool. This is fine. But we want to come in here. So these should all be correct. You can double check them if you want. We're going to come into the three dots up on the top right in the captions panel and we're going to do export to SRT file. And then from there, we are going to pick some, I'm going to call it test one, boom, save. I already had one for me earlier, but we're just going to save over it. So boom, now we're done with the caption part. So now once you've installed Captioneer, it comes with some great instructions. It's super quick. I've installed Captioneer already. So now I have this Captioneer window in my captions and graphics panel. So I come into here. I say import captions, browse, boom. So it's already the correct one, but let's just say for the sake of this, right? Here's my captions. I could look for it technically if I needed to, boom, boom, boom. But we're going to have these ones here. So then we're going to select the type of motion graphic that we want for the titles. So this is something else that's really awesome. So you'll come into here. Like I said, there is one, two, three, four, five, six, seven, eight, nine, 10, 11, 12, 13, minus two because of the duplicates with the MrBeast subtitles, right? Let's just do MrBeast. I haven't tried MrBeast yet. So let's do the, let's just try this and see what happens. So boom, I'm picked MrBeast subtitles and we're going to come in single line, text field. Okay. And we're going to create full sequence. We're going to add it to track. I want to just on two. I'm going to change it to two just for kicks. Add more words. So it's going to add them all here. You can see them adding one at a time. Boom, boom, boom, boom, boom. They're all created now. Now here's the other thing is that once your captions are in, okay, this is way too much, right? So let's go back. Let's go into here and recreate our captions. Okay. Let's go here, create captions. We're going to change this to single line. We're going to go, okay. So here's where we messed up earlier. I want to change this down to like 16. I don't want that many letters on here at a time, right? I'm going to change max duration to like second and a half. We're going to single line, boom, create captions. So now we are going to delete this bottom row. And now you can see, boom, there's way less words per line there. So now we're going to go here. I'm going to save it as the same. So we're just going to do a SRT. We're going to call it test one again. You can do it however you'd like. Am I going insane? Why isn't this working? And then you're going to come into here, export to SRT. Boom, boom, save over. Yes. And now we have saved it. We're going to come in back into caption here. I'm going to import captions. Let's do it again. We're going to go to test one, boom, select MoGurt. We'll leave that how it is. And then leave single, add MoGurt, boom. Ding, ding, ding, ding, ding, ding, ding, ding. You can see they're the same length as the original subtitles. And I'm going to go ahead and turn off subtitles since we already have, or yeah, subtitles at the top since we already have those. And then I'm going to go through here and we're going to go to the first title here. And here you can see in this panel, now that we're in the edit tab of this panel, we got animations off. We can change characters per line to 16 or something if we wanted to. I'm going to leave it at 20. And then we can also change our anchor point. We can change position. We can change size. I think the size is probably pretty good. Actually, let's change this to 80 just for kicks. And I want to also change the position down. I want it to be a little lower, right around here. Maybe 80 is a little too small. Boom, 90, there we go. I love it. So I like them centered. Here's the text. Here's the font. And we can change fill color. We can change stroke, stroke width. I'm going to change the stroke width a little bigger. There we go. Here's a highlight option. If you wanted to have certain words highlighted, you can have it be like half the words are highlighted, right? Then you get that kind of like half, half and half effect. You can have the end highlight and then... Anyway, so I'm going to go ahead and boom. I think this is good. All right, so now we're going to come into here. We're going to go to our first subtitle here. We're going to come up into the captioner window again, and we're going to hit copy app, copy attributes right here. So we just hit copy, 21 properties copied. And so this is going to copy where it is on the screen. It's going to copy any of the changes that we just made here and then we're going to select the rest or just all of them, select all of your motion graphics, paste. Now we're going to see that it has updated every caption to now be in the correct. Now we've got the little notification. It's done. And now we have dynamic captions. So I hope that you guys are as excited about that as I am. It has massively improved my workflow. Now I can get everything done in one program. I don't have to keep shipping it out to other programs. And it honestly, and that's the thing too, is like, say I changed my mind completely. Maybe I'm like, you know what? I don't like the MrBeast subtitles. I can come into here and I can just say, all right, I'm going to delete all these, boom. And I'm going to say, I want to create them with the karaoke style. And now create at Mogert's. Now I have a completely new style and I could even just do it on a new track, right? So then if I changed my mind, they're all still there. I can change it to track three instead of track two, right? And then I could just turn off the track that I don't want. So I'm going to go ahead and I can come back into here. This one gives me a little bit different options. I'm not going to do the highlight thing, but I am going to do the box fill. I want to change it to, let's just change it to like a purple instead. Boom. And we're going to change our font. Let's go to impact. And we'll do character per line is good. I'm going to scale it up to like 130. Okay. And then we're going to move it down. And I think, say I really like that. Boom, I'm done. So I come into here, copy, copied. I'm going to come into here, paste, paste across all. I'm going to wait for that little green notification to come up. You don't have to, you can actually just kind of like check. Right now I can see that it has not changed one of the last captions yet. It does it one by one. So you'll see it like slowly changing as it goes. Boom, we have our update. All of them are done. And now we have karaoke style captions, which is awesome. Like this is huge. This is so big. I can't, I can't believe, finally guys, like it takes so long to do this manually and to have something like this inside of Premiere is just awesome. So hopefully that helps you guys. And I will catch you on the next one for hopefully another tip or some advice or just some good old fashioned jokes. I don't know. Anyways, I'll catch you next time.
