VIDEO TRANSCRIPT:
In this video we show you how to easily add subtitles to your videos in two ways. First one is absolutely free. And the second one costs a tiny bit of money, but it saves you so much time so it's definitely worth it.
Yes, let's get this going.
Subtitles are so important these days because more and more people are watching video without sound, specifically on mobile, especially when they are out and about. So if you don't have subtitles, your video might not get watched because they've got no idea what it's about if they're watching it without audio.
You might be even watching this video right now and you can't even hear us.
You've got no idea what we sound like. We might have the best accents in the world, but you have no clue. I feel like we should talk in funny accents now.
Yeah.
Yeah you're like so missing out on our accents right now. Why aye man. Totally.
Here's the first completely free way to add subtitles. So the first thing you are going to want to do is go to YouTube and upload your video as a private video so nobody can see it yet. So we're just gonna show you, on one of our old videos that doesn't currently have subtitles, how to do this.
But at this point you should have your video uploaded, it shouldn't have any views, it should just be completely private at this point.
But you should be able to still watch it on this screen. At this screen you just click this button here. Subtitles/CC.
Feel free to select your language here. Then just click on the Published Subtitles button. At this point you will get to this page and you will see YouTube has already tried to pre-populate your subtitles. It takes a guess basically, what you've said. Sometimes it is quite good at guessing, other times it is way off.
So you're probably gonna have to watch through this video and make some edits so just click the Edit button. And here you can see if it lines up to what you're saying, and you can make edits. So you can drag these around, you can shorten them, you can just type in here and change what you're saying.
I feel like that one was correct, but let's just say that's saying Pete instead, Andrew is the best at this point. You can change it like that, and when you are done just click publish edits.
And there you go, you now have subtitles. We've just skipped to a different video where we have published these captions properly.
And what's really cool now is that you can click this Actions button here and download what's called an SRT file. So this is a standardised subtitles file that you can then use on other platforms to upload your subtitles to.
So that comes in quite handy. Another quick YouTube hack is that if you put this tag in your video tags, yt:cc=on then your subtitles will always be on automatically rather than you having to actually add them yourself as you start watching.
They'll always display automatically at first, and you have to knock them off if you want them off. But what if you're uploading videos natively to Facebook, well the process is actually very similar.
Find the video that you wanna add subtitles to, clock the three little dots, edit post, and then click on Captions. And you've got two options here, you can upload the SRT file, so if you've already done this on YouTube you can literally just upload that SRT file. Or you can do exactly the same process on Facebook as you've just done on YouTube, and type in the captions as you go.
Remember to click Save to Video. So that's the free way to do it, but it's also the longer way to do it. Those c....
