Hey Fam, hope you are having an amazing day!

I have a download for you that will allow you to vastly upgrade Captionator's animation abilities with this simple install!

It does require FCP 10.4+ for it to work.

The video in this post is an installation guide for the download.

If you want to know how to add your OWN animations, then here's the video!

For those that don't know what Captionator is, Captionator is a $20 app that automatically adds captions to your videos. If you are interested, you can check out my video about it below! The app has received MANY updates and now supports multiple languages as well as the ability to save custom presets.

As always, I can't thank you enough for your continued support on my channel. It truly means so much to me!

This is awesome work! Question, how to install this file properly? Should I replace the original file in Titles/Captionator?

Dylan Bates - The Final Cut Bro

Hey Jackie! That’s exactly what you’ll do. In the download there should be a shortcut to the folder that you need to overwrite. There’s also the original captionator file in case you need to go back to the original for any reason.

Hey Dylan, tremendous work! Any idea why the other added drop in and drop out animation doesn’t do anything for me? Thanks for everything!

Dylan Bates - The Final Cut Bro

Hey Timo! I’m not quite sure I understand. I just went through and tested each animation, and they seem to perform as expected. Are the animations just not playing out for you? Let me know!

Hey, Dylan! I noticed that Captionator hasn't been working for me lately, when it's worked fine for many months. Is this possibly due to the OS update from a couple days ago?

Dylan Bates - The Final Cut Bro

Great question! I actually am still running on Monterey with no issues here. So there’s a good chance that might be it! Does Captionator open at all? Someone mentioned to me to go into captionator, go up to the menu bar and select preferences. Then at the bottom you can clear caches and that seems to have helped them. Might be worth giving a shot!

I tried that as well, along with reinstalling Captionator and restarting my MacBook. It gets stuck on the processing screen with the rotating wheel.

this plugin unfortunately does not work for me. can you help me out??

Dylan Bates - The Final Cut Bro

Hey Joshua! Sorry for the late response, I have been shooting a TV show. Are you referring to Captionator not working or the actual download? Happy to help in whatever way I can!

Ok so this is something I really need but I cant figure ot out how to make it work. Im a bit new into all of this so I would really apreciate if you could help me make this work, I have watched the tutorial twice and I am still not sure where to install and what and how to make the box appear behind the text. Im working on a project and my client want a box behind the text and this plugin could be my savior if I could only find the right way to install it.

I don't get it too. I have captionator and copied your file into the folder. But what the hack have i to set in Captionator to finally get the result?

Dylan Bates - The Final Cut Bro

Hey Veltens, you should be able to use Captionator like normal and you will see these additional settings inside of FCP. Unfortunately, you won't find those options directly in Captionator, as it wasn't programmed with those in mind. Hope that helps!

Dylan Bates - The Final Cut Bro

Daniela! I am so sorry for not responding sooner. I was on vacation at the time. To install this, you will need to drag the folder into Movies > Motion Templates > Titles > Captionator and then replace the file labeled "Caption". Once you have done that, you will be able to use Captionator like normal, however, in FCP you will see the additional options in the title settings on the right side. Hope that makes sense!

veltens

It did. I thank you so much. Thank you for all the content. It's so amazing, that someone like you (and the other Dylan ;-)) in those days still bring information on spot.

Hi Dylan, I'm using Captionator 2, it seems like it's not working on the project file. Hope you can help. Thanks

Dylan Bates - The Final Cut Bro

Hey RJ! Unfortunately, Captionator has had so many updates since I made this video, I'm not sure it works any longer. That said, I am pretty sure he implemented this title directly into the App. I think it might be called "The Final Cut Bro" preset. Hope that helps!
