Remotion captions are React-rendered, frame-synced text layers — useful for TikTok-style kinetic subs, product callouts, and title cards. Shotpack’s typography free set is a practical caption lab.

Caption implementation tips
- Prefer absolute positioning inside a fixed composition size (e.g. 1920×1080 or 1080×1920).
- Drive character/word progress from frame math or
spring, not CSSanimationalone. - Keep safe margins for vertical video if you target TikTok/Reels.
- Pair captions with a short transition so cuts stay readable.
FAQ
Does Shotpack auto-transcribe captions?
No. Bring your own script or ASR. Shotpack supplies motion recipes for how captions look and move once you have the strings.
Where are more typography shots?
See Remotion text animation and filter the library by typography / opening categories. Core pack unlocks denser title systems.
