Hi,
I'd like to volunteer for the task.
Kindly share the video link, as I cannot find it in the above thread. Also, do share the relevant details pertaining to the task.
Thanks!
(Btw I'm new to this space, so still getting used to the whole workflow and procedure. Any help would be deeply appreciated!)
Hello @Ad-Mk and welcome. Thanks for your questions on Slack on getting involved too. We are pleased to be able to help.
The video link is to the original file, so this can sent to you directly. We do not post original video links on GitHub as they can get deleted or edited in error as the cards are accessible to anyone on the internet. Thank you.
@Ad-Mk this is an example of how the subtitles appear https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VsiQzdmAz8g for this series of videos.
Just saw the video, and it looks great!
Let me know how you want me to proceed with this and any particular tools, procedure, etc. that I need to follow.
Thanks!
I will ask @abhansnuk or Olga to set you up with a link for a google document where you can add subtitles text from playing the video. I am reading the auto captions produced and they are of no use unfortunately.
You can use any video software to edit the file as long as it does not reduce the resolution beyond what can be used. Please create a copy in the folder (link has been sent to you) and mark it edit with your initials at the end of the filename. Can you blur the name of the equipment in the corner.
We did have beginning and end slides for these videos. I will ask the designer who did these to add them to this card for you. These do not have to be ready for the newsletter as it has a deadline of Monday, but can be added later. The priority is having the video edited, subtitled, merged for timing, ready on YouTube, and the image created and embed file for the newsletter. Naoko is working to Monday for additions to the video. Would this timing work for you? We can find an alternative for Naoko if not.
Glad to have you on board. Thank you.
Thanks a lot for the welcome. I'll start working on the same.
So the deadline is Monday, right?
