Iman Gadzhi style captions Clean lowercase. The spoken word turns bold.
Iman Gadzhi style captions are calm and clean: regular lowercase text, no outline, a soft shadow and up to four words per line. As each word is spoken it switches to bold, so the line reads like a sentence and the voice still leads. The look became known in the videos of entrepreneur and creator Iman Gadzhi. Our version is called Iman.
This preview was recorded with the same renderer that burns captions into your clip, so what you see is what you get.What makes the Iman caption style
Iman uses Montserrat at regular weight, 80 px on a 1080 × 1920 video, with no outline and a 2 px shadow. Four words per line, two lines at most, so a full thought fits on screen.
The emphasis is weight, not color: the spoken word turns bold while the rest stays light. It feels premium because nothing on screen is shouting.
