Motion Graphics for Video
Turn spoken ideas into motion graphics.
Add animated numbers, charts, diagrams, and callouts that appear when your video needs them—not as a separate design project.

Meaning, timing, control
The graphic changes with the idea.
Captionate chooses a visual form, aligns it to the relevant phrase, and leaves the resulting layer open for revision.

Sync the graphic to the sentence
Drag the playhead. Each layer enters with its phrase, builds at the pace of the sentence, and remains long enough to read.

Edit with direction
Ask for a revision, not a full restart.
The follow-up changes the graph treatment and the duration of one existing layer.
Add motion graphics where the numbers or structure would be clearer visually.

Motion graphics in the edit
Add AI motion graphics to an existing video.
Turn spoken numbers into animated data
Use the transcript and media timing to place a number, comparison, or chart where the viewer needs it. The graphic can build with the sentence and remain visible long enough to understand.
Explain steps and relationships visually
A list can become a process diagram, while a change between two ideas can become a connector or callout. The visual form follows the structure of the message rather than decorating every sentence.
Compose graphics around the existing footage
Graphic layers can use the available space beside a speaker, product, or interface instead of covering the subject. Review the combined composition before rendering the finished video.
Edit the generated layers and their timing
Refine text, colors, placement, style, and duration after generation. Follow-up instructions can target one layer without rebuilding unrelated parts of the edit.
How it works
From existing footage to a more visual explanation.
Add your video
Start with a talking-head, explainer, tutorial, product video, or another existing recording.
Describe what should become visual
Ask Captionate to emphasize numbers, explain a process, compare ideas, or add graphics where the message needs support.
Review the layers and export
Adjust the composition and timing, then render the edited video when the graphic layers are ready.
FAQ
Motion graphics for video questions.
Can AI add motion graphics to an existing video?
Yes. Captionate can use the content and timing of an existing video to create graphic layers for numbers, processes, comparisons, and key points.
How are motion graphics synchronized with speech?
Graphic layers are placed against the media timeline so their entrances, internal animation, and hold time can follow the relevant spoken phrase.
Can I edit the generated motion graphics?
Generated graphics remain editable. You can refine their text, color, position, visual treatment, and duration in the project.
What is the difference between motion graphics and animated captions?
Animated captions visualize the words being spoken. Motion graphics visualize the idea behind those words using charts, diagrams, callouts, numbers, and other compositions.
Can I create a standalone motion graphic without footage?
Yes. Use the AI Motion Graphics Generator to begin with a prompt instead of existing footage.
