How to stop your captions running into the end card
Ask Vizard Agent to check the end section for overlap. Captions are positioned against the footage, and anything that arrives afterwards, like an end card, a logo or a platform's own subscribe animation, sits in the same part of the frame. It inspects those frames, then either lifts the caption layout clear or removes the last lines entirely.
What do you type into Vizard Agent?
Describe the collision rather than the caption style. This is a layout problem confined to the last few seconds, and asking Vizard Agent for a restyle changes every caption to fix the ending. Say up front whether the final lines must stay or a clean end card matters more, since the two fixes produce different endings.
Prompt
What does Vizard Agent actually do?
Two things want the lower third of the final seconds: the captions, laid out against the picture, and the end card, added later. Neither knows about the other. Which repair is right depends on whether the last lines are saying anything, and both repairs came from real sessions. In the sessions behind this article it:
- Rendered the end section, pulled frames from it and inspected the overlap at full resolution.
- Identified what was being covered, whether logo, wordmark or a platform overlay, since a subscribe animation and an end card sit in different places at different moments.
- Measured how much room there was above it, which decides whether lifting the layout is even possible.
- Either lifted the caption layout higher for that section or removed the final caption lines over the card, which are very often the narrator saying goodbye.
- Re-rendered that section only, checked the end card was clean on the new frames and confirmed the captions earlier in the video hadn't moved.
When does this not work well?
Sometimes there's simply nowhere to move to, and Vizard Agent will say so rather than improvising. In a vertical video with a full-width end card and a platform overlay of its own, the space above the card is often already taken by something you need to keep. If the final lines matter, the card has to move instead.
Common questions
Can it just drop the last lines? Yes, and Vizard Agent will suggest it when they say nothing.
Will the rest of the video change? No. Vizard Agent scopes the change to the end section.
Can it move the card instead? Yes, if the lines matter more than the placement. Vizard Agent shifts the end card down.
