EDITORIAL REVIEW · Workflow idea

Make a video more accessible while checking every caption against the recording.

For authorized work involving authorized video recordings, proposed subtitle text, and timed caption files, prepare timed subtitles for an authorized video and hold them for creator review. Captions can mishear names, remove meaning, or expose speech that was not intended for publication. Confirm recording and reuse rights, inspect timing and sensitive content, preserve speaker meaning, check accessibility, and require the owner to approve subtitles before sharing or attaching them to a public video. Explain information use and retention, obtain required consent, respect source and reuse rights, verify important details, and keep external or consequential actions under human approval.
