Did you know you can add captions and subtitles to your project timeline in Final Cut Pro? Well, it’s a game-changer for any filmmaker, television producer, or even online video maker. Why? Because it allows you to import closed captions and foreign language subtitles right into your project where you can edit and prepare them for distribution.
Editing captions and subtitles in your video editor vs just ordering them after you’ve exported can present a lot of advantages:
- Embed captions directly in the media file to be ready for broadcast
- Edit the look, feel, and timing of your captions within the editor
- Create burn-in open captions easily vs. typing in titles by hand
Rather us do it for you? Rev now offers burned-in captions (open captions). Just check the “burned-in captions” box at checkout and you’ll receive a video with permanent, hard-coded captions added straight to your videos. Also available for foreign language subtitles!
What captions formats can I use in Final Cut Pro?
Final Cut Pro supports the following industry-standard caption formats:
- CEA-608 (SCC): A caption standard for broadcasts and web video.
- ITT (iTunes Timed Text): A format for delivering caption content to the iTunes Store
- SRT (SubRip): A popular and simple format used for online videos.
It’s always a best practice to check with your distributor to find out what captions format they support the captions file format you use in Final Cut Pro.
How do I get SCC caption files?
You can order professional, 99% accurate caption files and foreign subtitles which will be delivered to you in a matter of hours. Just upload your video or paste a video URL here. Rev also has Vimeo and YouTube integrations that make it easy to order straight from your accounts.
You can download SCC caption or subtitle formats once your caption file is delivered over email.

Adding Foreign Subtitles in Final Cut Pro
Adding foreign language subtitle tracks is essentially the same workflow as adding a closed captions file, but this time using your foreign language captions file(s).
1. Import Subtitles File
- Determine the caption format you’ll be using in Final Cut (SCC).

Exporting Captions and Subtitles in Final Cut
Before you export captions in Final Cut Pro, you’ll want to determine how you want to deliver them with your media file.
Export Captions As a Separate File
You can export captions as separate “sidecar” files, which might be required for your delivery of the media files.
You can export your captions as separate files from the File menu.
Export Captions Embedded in the Media File
If your captions are in the CEA-608 format, you can embed them directly into the media file. This delivery method is generally the best for broadcast TV, DVDs, and DVR content.
Export Open Captions As Burn-In Titles
If you want your captions to always appear on the video (not able to switch off), then you can choose to export the captions as open captions, or titles. Open captions will burn-in on the actual video image itself so the captions will always be visible.
Your Captions Workflow in Final Cut Pro
With Final Cut Pro X’s latest advanced captioning system, Apple has created a very useful captioning tool that is on-par with professional editing systems and is broadcast-ready. As captions and subtitles become increasingly more demanded and required, Final Cut Pro offers some great tools for editors to ensure their video content is ADA compliant, accessible, and able to easily reach more international audiences.
Save time and money on your caption and subtitling workflow with Rev. Instead of hand-typing all your caption dialogue (and hours to format it perfectly), why not just order captions for $1.25 a minute? Your time is worth more than that. Use that time for more projects, editing, marketing, or distributing your content. You’re welcome.
