Pop captions: three words at a time, the spoken one in blue

Pop puts up a few words at a time, at most 3 and 15 characters, in white capitals with a thick black outline and a soft shadow, so they read over any footage. The word being said turns blue and pops: drawn 12% bigger, it settles to 6% bigger in under a tenth of a second and stays lit until the next word starts.

A new caption starts at the end of each sentence, at a comma and at a pause, so a caption never runs across two thoughts. The pop pulls the eye along with the voice, which is why it's Clyper's default.

• Podcasts and interviews cut into clips: the steady blue pop keeps people reading through a long answer.
• Clipping campaigns. Bold word-by-word captions are what most briefs ask for, and Pop is on every plan, Starter included.
• Talking-head clips of any kind, when you want one style that just works.

On Pro and Studio, save up to 10 caption styles of your own: start from any of the 5, then choose the font (Poppins, Montserrat, Anton, Bebas Neue, Archivo Black or Bangers), the colors, the size and how high the captions sit. They show beside the built-in styles when you start a video or edit a clip.

Your styles carry your font into every language with letters it has; for other scripts, the captions fall back to the matching Noto Sans font, so nothing turns into empty boxes.

Compare all 5 on the preview above, or read about each. Every style works in every language: see captions in every language.
