Subtitling (open captioning) with Premiere Pro CS 6

[Bouke Vahl]

You probably do NOT want to do this in Premiere if it’s more than a handful.
(Any NLE is dog slow in this, and you need to do a lot of timing / move text from one title to another, stuff like this.)

So I recommend a dedicated subtitle tool.
I happen to have written one (so I’m a bit biased:-), you can get a free demo here:

Then, for fine tuning you can use Premiere.
Have a look here:

Untested in your version, but you might want to give it a try. I’m pretty sure it works.
(If the XML does not work, you can use and EDL and link PNG files to that, that MUST work.)

Hth,

For both open and closed captioning, amara.org. It’s free and easy to use.
