Transcribe individual source files

Last updated on Dec 14, 2023

Learn to transcribe individual source files before you start editing videos using Text-Based Editing in Adobe Premiere Pro.

Before you begin

Transcription is required only for videos that include spoken dialogue. If you don’t need to transcribe all your source media, you can import the files normally and then transcribe specific files.

  1. Launch Premiere Pro and create a new project.
  2. Select the media you'd like to import.
  3. Open the Text-Based Editing workspace.
  4. In the Project panel, double-click the clips you want to transcribe.
  5. In the Text panel, select Transcribe.
  6. Select the Language and Speaker labeling based on your requirements, whether you want Premiere Pro to separate speakers.

Result

After the transcription is complete, the dialogue will appear in the Transcript tab of the Text panel.
