Automatic captions

Add clear subtitles to short video clips

ClipStudio transcribes speech, times each caption, and applies a consistent high-contrast style after the clip has been selected and reframed.

Questions

What if my video already has subtitles?

ClipStudio checks for visible burned-in subtitles and avoids adding another caption layer when translation is not requested.

Are subtitles added before or after cropping?

They are applied after the clip is cut and reframed, which keeps the layout appropriate for the final aspect ratio.

Your next clip is already in the video.

Let ClipStudio find it, frame it, and caption it.
