Greased Titles is a Google Slides™ extension designed to make the more painful parts of managing supertitles (and creating closed captioning from titles decks) painless. It’s able to generate slides from a plain text file, create a corresponding text file from existing slides, and record a playthrough of the deck as a closed caption (SRT) file. This allows you to write your supertitles in any text editor, easily regenerate or edit existing titles, and quickly create timestamped closed caption files for your video recordings.

Common uses include: quickly creating new supertitles from a libretto or script, rapidly making significant edits to an existing supertitle deck, creating closed captions for a video, or fixing up an existing deck so that all slides use the same theme.  Have fun!

Greased Titles is free in all senses of the word, and will remain so.  It was written by Brennan Sellner for Resonance Works as a volunteer project: if you find it useful, please consider a freewill donation to Resonance Works or acknowledging us in some fashion.  Thanks!
