How to create a video transcript in Rise, that can be scrolled vertically ?
Hi Amy!
Happy to share some insight on this!
Currently, there has not been any movement on transcription features within Rise 360. However, that functionality does exist in Storyline 360. As a workaround, have you considered adding a Storyline Block to your Rise lesson to accomplish a similar setup?
- Here's a sample lesson with a closed-captioned video, and the transcription feature enabled.
If you would prefer to build this solely in Rise, you can add text below the video using a Text Block. Then, remove the excess space between the video and the text by reducing the padding. This screen recording from my teammate Alyssa helps illustrate those steps.
Please let me know if you have any more questions!
Hi,
I am only just coming back to this. I know this is a workaround, but the added Storyline block is a bit cumbersome as it is a separate file to maintain.
New accessibility legislation implemented in Europe this year (2025) requires companies, by law, to ensure that any digital learning tool like, a piece of elearning, is accessible. Based on this, I think the requirement for this feature to be part of the Rise suite is essential and not a "Nice to have" feature. 2 years on, is there possibly any chance of this being a feature upgrade?
As a work around at the moment, I place the video into Rise with the CC (Vrt file). Underneath, I create a multimedia block, and place a PDF of the video transcript in it.
Thanks
