Captions and finishing · Autessa Video Studio
Caption styles
Autessa Video Studio offers burned-in caption styles made for short-form video: Shout, TikTok, TikTok Yellow, Outline, Subtle and Karaoke. Each is previewed before you render.
The problem
Captions are the look of a short video
Most people watch short videos with the sound off, so the caption style is the first thing they see. Video Studio ships the styles short-form viewers expect, matched exactly between the preview and the render.
Where it happens
What you get
- Shout: big bold white caps with a heavy black outline. The default.
- TikTok: white text on a rounded black pill.
- TikTok Yellow: punchy yellow text on a black pill.
- Outline: clean white with a crisp thin outline, no fill shadow.
- Subtle: understated soft white with a light drop shadow.
- Karaoke: a word-by-word highlight sweep as the line is spoken.
