-: I add closed captions to a lot of my videos, 2 2
especially the ones that I don't try 3 3
to get compensated for them 4 4
but I wanna do a good thing like help people. 5 5
And I humbly believe that every problem in the world 6 6
can be fixed with a combination of technology, 7 7
education and acceptance, T-E-A-T. 8 8
That was TEDx Talk. 9 9
And so what I did was I actually put that online, 10 10
and I made, I think it was 10 international versions 11 11
with closed captions. 12 12
But one thing about doing closed captions 13 13
is if you add your own, 14 14
if you get them made, 15 15
then what happens is YouTube favors that, right? 16 16
It's part if the search engine hack, 17 17
and also, it's the right thing to do. 18 18
And so, one way to get your captions done, 19 19
and I actually did it for a bunch of these walking videos 20 20
earlier in the course. 21 21
I went to rev.com. 22 22
That's R-E-V .com, 23 23
and it's a bit pricey. 24 24
It's about a buck a minute, 25 25
and one of the reasons I did that 26 26
for these walking vlogs earlier in the course 27 27
was because I was in Barcelona, 28 28
and there was a lotta background noise, 29 29
and I was just worried some people would be able 30 30
to hear my message, for what it's worth. 31 31
So, if you wanna add captions, 32 32
go check out rev.com. 33 33
That's R-E-V .com, 34 34
and they do international ones, as well, 35 35
meaning they'll take your language and translate it 36 36
to international languages so you can burn it 37 37
on the screen if you want to. 38 38
Those are much more costly than the ones in English.
