Caption style · Whole sentence

Karaoke captions.

The spoken word turns yellow.

karaoke captions on a sample clip, rendered by Captuno.

What it looks like

The whole sentence sits on screen and each word turns yellow as it's said, like the words on a karaoke screen. People can read ahead, and the highlight shows exactly where you are.

When you upload you can change the highlight colour and how the words come in. It works in vertical and widescreen video, in any of the 14 languages Captuno knows.

Good for

  • Podcast clips and interviews
  • Lyrics, poems and readings
  • Language lessons, where seeing the whole sentence helps
