## Make the request
|
|
|
|
Name the file and the change you want:
|
|
|
|
```text
|
|
Using /hyperframes, add clear animated captions to assets/interview.mp4.
|
|
Keep the footage and its spoken edit unchanged.
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
Ask for designed information cards instead when the footage needs titles,
|
|
quotes, statistics, lower thirds, or picture-in-picture.
|
|
|
|
## What should change?
|
|
|
|
- **Add captions** — keep the original clip and audio unchanged; add readable, timed words over it.
|
|
- **Add designed overlays** — keep the clip underneath and add titles, quotes, statistics, lower thirds, or picture-in-picture.
|
|
- **Change the footage** — use General Video when pauses, selected moments, or the spoken order must change.
|
|
|
|
Captions and designed overlays work best on a clear, single-subject clip with audible speech. Both keep the original footage and audio intact.
|
|
|
|
If you need to remove pauses, choose different moments, or reorder the speech, use [General Video](/guides/general-video).
|
|
|
|
## Before it builds
|
|
|
|
Confirm:
|
|
|
|
- **Captions:** the intended format and any names or terms the transcript may miss. HyperFrames can recommend a visual treatment after it sees the clip.
|
|
- **Designed overlays:** the format, layout, visual style, and how often a title, quote, statistic, or side panel should appear.
|
|
- **Either path:** where the speaker, existing text, and important action leave safe room for graphics.
|
|
|
|
## Review what matters
|
|
|
|
- Names, product terms, and numbers are correct.
|
|
- Captions follow the spoken words.
|
|
- Graphics avoid faces and important parts of the footage.
|
|
- The video works with sound and muted.
|
|
- The final caption or graphic clears before the video ends.
|
|
|
|
For direct placement changes, use [Captions in Studio](/studio/captions) to
|
|
inspect synchronization and save position, scale, or rotation corrections. Ask
|
|
the agent or edit the caption source for corrected words and durable timing or
|
|
style changes.
|
|
|
|
<Card title="Finish and share" icon="circle-check" href="/guides/export-and-share">
|
|
Review the chosen caption, overlay, or recut path, then render and watch the final file.
