    Just thought I would post how incredibly cool the closed captions feature in premiere pro cc is. As far as I know none of the other edit programs have a built in closed captioning feature like adobe has. This is definelty one point for Premiere. They just saved me a ton of time and money.

    I’ve yet to use it but have a question.

    once you do the captions,

    is there a way to export a .scc caption file?

    yes, there is a way to export a .scc file as well as a few other formats. The primary use of our CC implementation was re-use of captions.

    wow, thats awesome.

    I will no longer need to use an outside captioning vendor.

    Even if you use an outside caption vendor to do the leg work, you can import the scc file and tweak if you like. The scc file shows up as a list you can change.

    Hi Greg,
    I’m working a project that needs to be Closed Captioned. I’m currently trying to use amara.org, but it’s turning out to be a hassle. Can you recommend a tutorial for how to use the closed captioning feature in Premire? I’m using CC CS6.
    Thanks!

    I believe you would have to use a third party caption tool in CS6. I’m acutally not familiar with using captions in CS6. Premiere Pro CC has it built in, which is what I’m using. It’s actually really easy. You just put a Caption clip on the timeline and type your caption.

    Thanks for the info, Greg! I’m using CC as well. Where do I find the captioning clip function? I was looking in my effects tools but didn’t see it. Am I looking in the wrong spot?

    When I have a sequence with captions that I am ready to export, the “captions” tab has my choices greyed out under the “export options” pulldown.

    I only want the .scc file; I already have the media. Any idea how to extract only a captioning file?
