A Guide to Subtitling Video Lectures Quickly and Accurately

Still under Covid restrictions so please excuse the unwieldy lockdown hair! This is just a rough video about how to subtitle your video relatively quickly using an SRT file generated from YouTube and embedding it using Handbrake (free) or Adobe Premiere Pro. This is not meant to be a comprehensive tutorial on subtitling videos but is merely meant to show you one quick way to make sure that audio is accessible. These are just my views and preferences. Some people may prefer transcripts over subtitles, but these are what I think work best based on my experience as a deaf person and my experience as a lecturer.
