Video transcribing

I have done it in the past by using YouTube's automatic closed caption generation, then cleaning up the text. It probably saved some time over doing a straight transcription, but not very much. The software for automatic captions just wasn't that accurate.

Instead of using software for transcriptions, I use Rev. It is worth it to me to pay $1 per minute to get transcriptions and to not have to deal with it myself. https://www.rev.com/

Hi,

So I assume that you have to upload the video to You Tube then, first?

Thanks,

Julie

Here is some info on a number of tools (incl. the YouTube option Christy mentioned) to create closed captions.

Yes, although you can make it private and delete it when you're done.

Thank you!
