In this tutorial, we will show you how to add subtitles and captions to your video using Adobe Premiere Pro. Follow these steps to enhance your video with clear and professional subtitles.

**Step 1: Prepare Your Video**
Start by importing your video file into Premiere Pro and dragging it into a new sequence.

**Step 2: Create Captions**
Go to the "New Item" menu and select "Captions" from the options. Premiere Pro offers various caption standards to choose from:

• **CEA-608/CEA-708**: Use these for broadcast standards and for including additional information like color and background. Note that CEA captions may not work on YouTube.
• **Teletext**: Another option for certain broadcast needs.
• **Open Captions**: These are always visible and cannot be turned off by the viewer. This is ideal for burning subtitles directly into the video.

For YouTube, it's best to use tailored scripts that can be written directly in Adobe Premiere Pro.

**Step 3: Customize Your Captions**
Adjust the font, size, color, and positioning of your subtitles to match your video's style and ensure readability.

**Step 4: Add and Sync Captions**
Type your captions and sync them with the audio. Make sure the timing is accurate so that the captions appear in sync with the spoken words.

**Step 5: Export Your Video**
If you want to burn the captions into the video (making them permanent), ensure that you select this option when exporting. This way, the subtitles cannot be toggled on or off.
