Captions

Animated word-by-word captions for your clips

Every clip Snip cuts comes with captions timed to each spoken word. Pick a look, switch the extras on or off, and the captions are burned into the video you save.

For anyone posting talking clips where most people watch with the sound off and decide in the first second whether to keep watching.

Open the studio

Five caption styles

Impact, Bold, Boxed, Pop and Clean. Captions can sit in the lower third or the center of the frame.

Key words in each clip are picked out to punch on screen, with an optional emoji on a few of them.

Extras you can switch on or off

Word pop, emoji hits, a slow zoom, a hook sting at the start, an end card, and a progress bar.

When you save, Snip renders a vertical 720 by 1280 WebM video with the captions burned in. Rendering plays the clip through once, so it takes about as long as the clip itself.
