Subtitles

Subtitles on Morphic lets you burn captions into a video. Morphic listens to the speech, writes the subtitles, and renders them into the video itself, styled the way you ask for.

You can also try it at morphic.com/tools/subtitles.

Here's a quick tutorial on how to add subtitles on Morphic:

From CopilotCopy Anchor Link

The quickest route. Attach the video and say what you want.

1. Open Copilot
2. Attach the video you want subtitled
3. Ask for subtitles and name the language, for example 'subtitle this in English'

Copilot transcribes the speech and returns the video with the subtitles on it.

From the prompt barCopy Anchor Link

Use this when you want to set the look before it runs.

1. On the Canvas, click 'Tools' above the prompt bar
2. Search for 'Subtitles' and select it
3. Attach a video. One video is required, and the prompt bar tells you when it has what it needs
4. Describe the subtitle style you want, then generate

Change how the subtitles lookCopy Anchor Link

Click the Preferences icon in the prompt bar to set them yourself:

• Preset: a ready-made look to start from
• Language: leave it on 'Auto' to detect the spoken language, or name one
• Position and shadow: where the subtitles sit and how strongly they separate from the picture
• Font, weight, and color: set for ordinary words and for highlighted words separately, so emphasis reads differently from the rest

Bring your own subtitle textCopy Anchor Link

'SRT Content' in Preferences takes subtitle text you already have and skips the transcription step, so the words are exactly what you wrote.

This pairs with Transcription: transcribe the video first, correct the names and terms in the file, then paste it here to burn the corrected version in.

Good to knowCopy Anchor Link

• Clean speech transcribes best. Heavy music or overlapping voices behind dialogue makes for a weaker transcript, which means weaker subtitles.
• Check the transcript before styling. If a name comes out wrong, fixing it once through 'SRT Content' beats regenerating and hoping.
• Leave room at the bottom of the frame. Subtitles sit over the picture, so a shot with action low in the frame competes with them.
• Subtitles are billed per generation with a minimum charge. See Plans & Credits for the current rate.

That's how you add subtitles on Morphic. Use it when a cut needs to play without sound.
