With video content taking over the digital world, creating engaging videos for your socials is more important than ever. An ‘engaging video’ is made up of two parts: stunning visuals and a clear, useful message. But how do you communicate your message if viewers watch your video on mute, or struggle to understand spoken words? 

Enter PosterMyWall’s AI Subtitles, a powerful new feature designed to make your videos more engaging, accessible, and visually appealing. With just a few clicks, you can automatically generate subtitles that improve clarity and viewer retention so your message can reach a wider audience.

Let’s dive into how this feature works and why it’s a game-changer for marketers and content creators.

Note: PosterMyWall’s AI Subtitles is only available to Premium and Premium Plus subscribers.

Why AI Subtitles is a game-changer

Boost engagement

Studies show that videos with subtitles receive more views and longer watch times compared to those without. 

Many social media users scroll through their feeds with the video sound off, especially when in public places. In this case, they rely on subtitles to understand content. 

With PosterMyWall’s AI Subtitles, you can generate accurate subtitles for your video content. This allows you to communicate your message easily to your video’s audience even when they can’t turn up the volume.

Increase accessibility for a diverse audience

Subtitles make your content inclusive, ensuring people with hearing disabilities can also engage with your videos.

Moreover, subtitles can help non-native speakers understand your message. PosterMyWall’s AI Subtitles support multiple languages, allowing you to connect with audiences from different linguistic backgrounds. For example, an Indian influencer can review a globally popular product in Hindi but add subtitles in English so that an international audience can also benefit from it.

Save time and effort with automation

Manually adding subtitles can be tedious and time-consuming. AI Subtitles eliminates the need for manual transcription by automatically generating accurate captions in seconds. You can then make quick edits and customizations, speeding up your content creation process.

Incorporate brand aesthetic

PosterMyWall allows you to customize the fonts, colors, animations, and other aspects of your subtitles to match your brand’s aesthetics. You can give a sleek, professional look or a fun, casual style to your AI subtitles with the various customization options available. 

Improve SEO and discoverability

Platforms like YouTube, TikTok, and Instagram prioritize videos with captions, as they improve accessibility and user experience.

Plus, search engines can index your subtitles, helping your content appear in more searches and increasing visibility.

How to use AI Subtitles

Follow these simple steps to generate, edit, and customize captions seamlessly:

1) Upload your video or audio

Begin by uploading your desired video or audio file to PosterMyWall. In the design editor, click on “My Uploads” to upload your video or audio file. You can upload your file from your device, Facebook, Dropbox, or Google Drive. 

2) Generate subtitles

You’ll find ‘AI Subtitles’ on the right-side toolbar of the editor. Select one of the 57 languages in which you want to generate the subtitles.

Disclaimer: The accuracy of AI-generated subtitles may vary depending on the language and audio quality. We recommend reviewing and editing the subtitles for accuracy, especially when using languages other than English.

Once done, click on the “Generate Subtitles” button to let AI transcribe your video or audio. Subtitle generation may take a few seconds depending on the file size and your internet connection.

Files without any spoken words won’t generate any subtitles. To get the best results, make sure your video or audio has clear speech.

3) Customize the subtitles

PosterMyWall’s editor offers a wide range of customization options for your subtitles. For example, you can apply presets to your subtitles.

You can also customize the fonts, size, color, background, and more by clicking on the pencil icon next to the ‘Styles’ option.

Plus, you can apply four eye-catching animation styles to your subtitles: Simple, one word, dynamic, and progressive.

4) Edit the text 

In the majority of cases, the subtitles generated by AI would be accurate. However, sometimes typos might happen. 

Review and edit the subtitles generated using the right-side panel of the editor. You can add more text or copy, paste, and delete sections of the subtitles easily.

5) Adjust the timing

Fine-tune the placement and timing of your captions by using the timeline panel. This feature allows you to adjust when each subtitle appears and disappears, ensuring perfect synchronization with speech in your audio/video.

Use cases for AI Subtitles

AI Subtitles help increase the impact of video content across various industries. Here’s how you can leverage this feature to maximize engagement and accessibility.

Educational content

Subtitles help your audience follow along with complex topics in video tutorials.

For example, a fitness influencer can post a short workout clip on Instagram with AI-generated captions so the viewers can follow and remember instructions.

Promotional content

Subtitles increase the effectiveness of your promotional videos. Customers can absorb information better when they can both hear and read a product’s benefits. 

Plus, PosterMyWall’s AI Subtitles lets brands customize the style, font, color, and animation of the subtitles to match their branding.

Podcast & interview clips

Podcasts and interviews can be repurposed into bite-sized video content. With subtitles, you can highlight the main messages of your video content, encouraging your audience to watch the entire video content. 

For instance, a podcast host can share a highlight clip from an interview with a celebrity. AI Subtitles, with a dynamic or progressive animation style, can emphasize key quotes, making the video more impactful on social media.

Enhance your video and audio content

Adding subtitles to your videos increases their discoverability and makes them more accessible and engaging for your audience. PosterMyWall’s AI Subtitles save you from the time and effort invested in manually writing subtitles by automatically generating accurate subtitles for your videos and audio. 

Say goodbye to recording your audio or videos on one app, editing them elsewhere, and adding captions on another. With PosterMyWall, you can do everything in one place.
