How to make a talking head video that actually looks professional
Prism Pro
A clean edit for real estate videos
"Prism Pro" was designed with real estate agents in mind. It combines a clean, minimal video aesthetic with a distinctive caption architecture. If you want to replicate the stacked captions effect or negative lettering you see online, this is how you do it.
What it looks like:
Premium and precise
Prism' Pro's clean, precise transitions are designed to stay of the way. All eyes are on your content: no distracting effects. This minimal video aesthetic signals professionalism, organization and respect.
Stacked captions for details
Use single, double or triple captions to customize how much information displays in each frame. Stacked captions are ideal for topics that require contextual details together, like real estate listings and sales offers.
Talking head cutouts
Clear edges separate the speaker from background content. Your speaker will stay highlighted throughout the video as B-roll or other graphic elements appear behind. This gives an editorial, broadcast quality.
Get the style fast with Captions
Create the Prism Pro style fast with Captions' AI Edit. Just upload footage, and Captions automatically applies the right transitions, effects and caption styling throughout the entire video.

Behind the Prism Pro aesthetic
Many video styles only account for primary captions on the screen. But we noticed that creators like real estate agents needed to say a lot more at once. They needed to stack details that relate for topics like property listings, where you'd want to list a location, price and specs altogether. This style uses details to build the story, rather than detracting from it.

Prism FAQ
How do I balance detailed text overlay for videos?
It's easy to make videos feel cluttered if you put a lot of information on the screen at once. Think about which details need to be together, and how you can split out different parts of the story throughout your video. For added visual clarity, we recommend using a stacked caption system that creates a natural hierarchy in every view. This allows you to highlight different kinds of information at once, with a clear relationship that guides the viewer.
The easiest way to make stacked captions is using our Prism Pro AI Edit style, which applies the caption system to your entire video at once. You can tweak any details you need from there.
What is a talking head cutout in video editing?
A talking head cutout separates the presenter from the background, placing them in front of any B-roll or images that appear in view. This gives the presenter more of a host or broadcast feel, so they're guiding viewers through the entire video.
How do I create negative effect captions for videos?
Negative effect captions have been trending lately, thanks to their inspirational feel and eye-catching aesthetic. We designed Prism Pro to make that style accessible to anyone, regardless of your editing experience. Just upload a video to Captions, and let AI handle the rest.
What's the best video style for real estate content creators?
Prism Pro is great for real estate agents because it provides the right canvas for a detailed story without overwhelming your audience. It's ideal for data-forward listing and market content that's professional and warm.
How do I make my real estate videos look more professional?
