White italic Lato on grey gradient
White italic Lato on a soft grey linear-gradient plate with rounded corners; calm and elegant. Vlog and lifestyle captions that should feel polished.

Add word-timed captions to my video in this style: "White italic Lato on grey gradient" from the 24fps video editor library.
Preset JSON: https://24fps.dev/video-editor/captions/fancy-italic-lato-grey-gradient-cc/preset.json (pass its "preset" to the engine; its "script" is demo text).
Engine (MIT, no dependencies, ES module): https://24fps.dev/editor/engine.js. Download the engine next to your page (curl -O) rather than importing cross-origin, then import { mount } from "./engine.js" in a <script type="module"> served over http.
Wiring: root = a position:relative box at the video's size. media = { main }: main is a wrapper holding my video, filling the root. Then const fx = mount(root, { kind: "captions", preset, script: words, media }) and call fx.render(seconds) every frame. It is seek-safe: drive it from the GSAP timeline in HyperFrames or call render(frame / fps) in Remotion. Before capturing frames, await (fx.ready ?? document.fonts.ready). Check it on my footage: if text is hidden behind the subject or doesn't read against my colours, nudge the layer positions or colours.
Transcribe my audio to word timestamps first (e.g. Whisper with word timestamps) and pass words as [{ w, s, e, emph }] with s/e in seconds; set emph: true on words to stress. A plain string also works (evenly timed, *word* = emphasis).
Field reference: https://24fps.dev/video-editor/llms.txt. Keep sizes as fractions of the frame height so it works at any resolution. Credit: 24fps.dev/video-editor- Same idea
