Blue Box caption style

Blue Box caption style preview

Blue Box sets each line of Sigmar One in white inside a bright blue box with 4px rounded corners and a soft black shadow, with the words waving up one after another. It suits news, commentary and educational clips where a solid colour block keeps captions readable on any footage.

Blue Box is the boldest of the boxed styles. Sigmar One, a heavy display face, is set in white on a saturated blue box with 10px of horizontal padding and 4px corners, and a 10px black blur shadow lifts the box off the video.

Words rise 6px into place one after another, staggered word by word, so each line rolls in left to right inside its box. All words stay white.

Use it on news-style commentary, explainers and educational clips, and whenever the footage is too busy for stroked text. Black Box is the neutral version and Light Box the quiet one.

FAQs

Frequent questions

Yes. Pick Blue Box, then open Customise in the editor to change the text colour, the highlight colour, the font and where the captions sit. The change applies to the whole transcript at once, so you keep the same motion and layout with your own palette.

Yes. The style is language neutral: the font, colours and animation apply to whatever language Crayo transcribes. Italian uses Latin letters, which Sigmar One is built for. For scripts such as Arabic, Hebrew or Japanese, swap the font in Customise and keep the rest of the look.

Auto Clip clips open in the Crayo editor, and the Styles panel lists Blue Box with line grouping, which is the default. Tap it once and it applies to every line of the transcript.

There is no separate charge for caption styles. Every Crayo plan, Hobby, Clipper and Pro, includes Blue Box and every other style in this gallery, plus the editor to customise them. Crayo itself is a paid subscription.
