From install to your first captions
Everything you need to install and use MotionCaption in After Effects or Premiere (2023+): setup, features, and fixes.
What is MotionCaption?
MotionCaption creates animated captions right inside After Effects and Premiere. Start from a large library of caption presets, then adjust styles, animations, effects, and transitions. Workflow tools like Clean Up for silences and filler words, plus optional AI (transcription, translation, emoji and B-roll suggestions, highlights), handle the rest.
Captions arrive as real text layers in your comp. Fonts, colors, timing, animation, and easing stay editable after they are created.
Captions arrive as a Motion Graphics template. Every caption rides on one clip, so it stays light and lands fast. Split it to style any caption on its own, or load your own MoGRT.
