COURSE DESCRIPTION

New with the 10.4.1 update to Final Cut Pro X is the ability to create closed captions and subtitles directly inside FCP X. This week’s webinar shows you how this new feature works.

Join host, Larry Jordan, as he illustrates how to:

• Pick the right caption file for your distribution system
• Import captions from a file
• Create captions manually
• Position and format captions
• Determine if a caption is invalid
• Work with captions for multiple languages
• Embed captions into a movie file
• Export captions for social media

Captions are increasingly necessary, even for small projects; and online captioning is often laughably bad. Watch this session and learn how to handle captions yourself.

AUDIENCE LEVEL

This is an intermediate-level session. Some knowledge of FCP X operations will be helpful in understanding this process. This training is delivered as a single QuickTime movie.
