If you've tried to add subtitles to
any kind of sequence in Premiere Pro
before, you'll know just how clunky
that part of the essential graphics tool was.
That's now being pulled out
into its own separate section
under the text section and in this video
I'm going to show you just how good it is.
So here's a recent video that I've done.
This is the review of the Neewer S101-300W strobe.
Link up here somewhere,
If you haven't seen it.
And I scripted parts of it, but then
certain parts of it I didn't, so this
is where this is going to come in really, really, really well.
However, if you do script your videos,
there's an even better
game changing fix in this.
But anyway, let's start as we
mean to go on, and I've got my in and
out points set for
the whole of the sequence,
and then we go to captioning.
I've actually setup workplace.
Er, a workspace, even for captioning,
which has the text there.
If you don't see the text window, you just go to window
and select text right there.
So I'm going to transcribe the sequence.
Now you can create a new caption track that just adds
a caption track that you could then bring in SRT file.
Or you can import
it straight with an SRT file, but
I'm going to transcribe it cause this is the speech to text
feature within this new, whole captions area so
hit transcribe to sequence and then it gives me options.
I know that there's actually
audio, there's dialogue
on more than one channel here.
If we look in here, this is the main dialogue
here and then this is the dialogue when
I was actually shooting in The Cave, so
I actually want it on more so
I'm going to select audio clips tagged as dialogue.
But before we do actually go
through there, I'm going to select all those.
Hold down shift, select all those
and then I'm going to go to audio.
Make sure Edit is selected and hit dialogue.
Don't need to do anything else.
You just said this is all dialogue.
So I'm going to go back to
my captioning workspace
and transcribe sequence
audio clips tagged as dialogue.
An it's language, English
and hit transcribe.
Now if you only want to transcribe
a certain little bit of it,
that's where you'd say transcribe
in, to output only.
I'm actually going to do
that cause I've tailed off the end, which
is just my out graphics.
So hit transcribe, sit back
coz this does take a bit of time.
So a number of things
happened since then, and now seemingly
at least three days.
What happened was that
there was no progress bar.
There was nothing that was happening.
I noticed that Adobe
had released at least five
or six updates for the likes of
Photoshop, Premiere,
After Effects, Encoder, and
I would imagine that their servers
were being overwhelmed
by downloads from that.
It seems to be running a
hell of a lot better today.
That may be because
there's less downloads, so then
less people using the
servers, or that they've updated it.
I know this is still in beta,
so hopefully they'll have addressed this.
and it won't happen again.
It looks be running really
well now, so that's cracking.
If you haven't got this, by
the way, I know this is kind of still in
its second beta.
If you haven't got it yet, you
will get it very, very soon.
So if the text box
isn't there or the creating
auto transcriptions or anything like that
isn't there, promise you,
it will be with you soon.
So now that it's actually processed
the audio you're first given
the whole text like this now this
is not going to be
correct all the way through, but this
is the first stage
in which you can go through
and sort out your typos.
Now if like me, if you script your videos
of the other than this one, then this
is a really, really
good bit to be able to
jump in, copy and paste
into there and change it up.
If you don't script your videos,
head to about here.
If you do script your videos.
This is where you can really
help once we generate the caption.
So let's jump in.
In fact, let's get rid of me.
And here you can se that
if I play through thank you for
looking up here, this actually plays and
highlights the text as
it's playing through.
I'm actually going to mute the music
just because it will get a bit too
annoying, so let me turn that up a bit.
Thank you, thank you, please.
Oh, you're too kind.
I'm just like you,
I'm just a normal person.
All I want to say is it's the.
S 101 300 Watt from er...
Neewer.
Okay, so
as you can see, that's not exactly
right, so this wasn't scripted so
I haven't got this written in so
I can change that.
That's the S 101.
300 Watt from.
If I go...
Is there three of them?
That's really small.
That's 2-3,
and obviously that's
not how you spell Neewer,
although a lot of people call it Neuer.
Who knows?
Neewer, that's not how you spell either.
That's in there.
And then I did say
it's really bright before we went in.
For a bit of comedy effect so.
If I jump back up to here
and press space bar,
it actually takes
the playhead to where that
is really, really handy.
Neewer.
it's really bright.
Okay, so that goes
into the graphics, and
if I zoom in here a
little bit up to the next bit and
okay coffee down,
and a quick look into the box.
Anna who is Anna?
And a quick...
Now you see, the thing is,
if you don't enunciate as
well, you should.
It's not really going to.
It's not going to be great
here however, as I said
I script these videos so as long as
I've said the words exactly.
Okay, coffee down a
quick look into the box.
So if I get that.
Double click into there.
Go in there and copy
and paste into there.
That should work perfectly.
That's all updated.
First off, this lot white box.
Do you know what rather than having
to go through all of it?
I know I go, let's get the rest out.
So if I go and grab that, bit of text.
And go in...
As you can see, I'm just copy
and pasting straight into there.
And then we move
through, so I'll speed this up.
But this will give us such
a better starting point
once we get the captions in.
Let me speed this up.
I'd say it's pretty much a
steal, and with that
said, my name's Adam.
This is Musing of a Man,
thanks so much for watching.
I'll see you in the
next one, so that's where we're at.
We got to the end and so
let's have a look at this.
We've got all this text,
we've got nothing here yet, but
once we hit create
captions, we're going to create
captions track up here.
So let's hit that.
And we want the format to be
subtitle and the style.
I haven't got any style made, so we'll do
that and create from sequence.
Transcript so.
Okay, and that will do its thing.
And there we have it.
So now what it's done?
If we look at this looking at
just the timeline, we've still got
the audio down the bottom here.
We've got the video here and then as a
subtitles track on top this.
Is the whole of the
captions there are bits.
That there aren't any captions made.
As you can see there's blanks
here, but they could be
where there isn't text.
So now we go through and
as you can see here,
this has now changed from the
blocks of text to the little
individual bit text for
all these different little clips.
So if you haven't already
seen this review,
you'll see here that this
is actually a little bit of a joke
intro, so let's play that through.
Here are all the clips for
all the captions.
Let's see how it's done.
Thank you, thank you please.
Oh you're too kind.
I'm just like you,
I'm just a normal person.
All I want to say is it's the.
S101-300 Watt from er...
Neewer.
It's really bright.
But here's the big
thing about these captions.
Of course, not only
is it really going to help those who are
hard of hearing who are
watching your videos
and can actually follow along accurately.
Rather than the auto
generated captions that are up on
YouTube that can't really
be edited easily.
Also, when you upload this as an SRT file
onto YouTube, which
is primarily where I work, that works as
metadata, so as well as your title and
the tags and what you put
in the description of your video,
all this text because
it's up on a separate file,
which is an SRT file,
is subtitle file
that's all readable in the search
on YouTube, so this should really, really
help get your videos
recognised and on search results by those
who are searching for the stuff
that's in your video.
I hope that helps.
I really think this
is a game changer by Adobe.

I now have to go and put captions
into this video.
Captions in a video about captions.
Wow!
It's like Inception.
How many layers down should we go?
Well, anyway, that's too much.
With all that said, my name is Adam.
