Introduction

In this article, we will explore how to Create transcripts, edit them, and generate captions for videos using Premiere Pro.

Setting up the project

To get started, open Premiere Pro and create a new project. Save the project in a desired location. Import the video you want to work with into the project. Make sure the video does not have any captions already.

Importing and transcribing the video

To access the pane where you can transcribe and edit the sequence, go to "Window" > "Workspaces" > "Captions and Graphics" > "Text". Click on "Transcribe Sequence" to begin the transcription process. Choose the language of the video and the audio track. Click on "Transcribe" to initiate the process.

Editing and correcting the transcript

After the transcript is generated, review it for accuracy. Click on any word in the transcript to go to that specific point in the video. Double-click on any incorrect word to edit it. You can also edit the speaker names if necessary. Ensure that the transcript is accurate and properly reflects the content of the video.

Creating captions

To create captions at the bottom of the screen, click on "Create" and select the desired format. Australian OP Dash 47 default is a commonly used format. Double-click on the captions track to create the captions. The captions should now appear at the bottom of the screen, synchronized with the video.

Customizing the captions

Review the captions and make any necessary edits to ensure accuracy. If the captions are not appearing in the correct timing, use the timeline slider to adjust the in and out points of the captions. This will help you Align the captions with the video better. Once you are satisfied with the captions, you can export them for further use.

Translating the captions

If you need to translate the captions into another language, save the captions as an SRT file. Open the SRT file using a text editor and copy the text. Paste the text into a word processing software, like Microsoft Word. Save the file and then use an online translation tool, such as Deep L translator, to translate the text into the desired language. Copy the translated text and replace the original text in the SRT file.

Exporting the captions

To export the captions, go to the project panel and click on the three dots. Choose "Export" > "SRT File" and save the file in the desired location. You can now use the exported captions in your video editing process or upload them to platforms that support captions.

Creating subtitles in another language

To create subtitles in another language, follow the same process as before, but this time import the translated SRT file into Premiere Pro. The captions will now appear in the translated language, providing subtitles for viewers who understand that language.
