Creating and submitting an Instructional Video for Closed Captioning
These are the official directions for submitting an Instructional Video for professional closed captioning.
- Prepare content
- Writing a script before recording is helpful.
- Record your video
- You can record this in any format that is comfortable for you.
- Popular tools include Zoom, Screenpal, or Microsoft Teams. You are free to use whichever recording tools you prefer.
- Submit your video file to the Digital Accessibility Video Dropbox on SharePoint. You will receive an email informing you that your video has been received.
- SWTC staff will upload your video to the SWTC Online Education YouTube Channel. Once your video has been uploaded to YouTube, you will receive an email with the video link. This link can be placed into Schoology, embedded on a website, used in Playposit, or disseminated through any other appropriate means. This link will not change once professional captions have been added. Please do not post videos hosted on your personal YouTube channel to your courses.
- You will receive a final email when your video has been professionally captioned and the process is completed.
