English subtitles (fragment)

112
00:07:41,200 --> 00:07:44,050
Before you open the bowl,
the clay has to be perfectly centered.

113
00:07:44,300 --> 00:07:47,900
Brace your left elbow on your knee
and push in with the heel of your hand.

114
00:07:48,100 --> 00:07:51,350
If the clay wobbles against your palm,
it's not there yet.

115
00:07:51,600 --> 00:07:54,800
[STUDENT] How long do I keep pushing?

116
00:07:55,000 --> 00:07:59,400
Until it feels like it's standing still,
even though the wheel is spinning.

Spanish translation (same cues)

112
00:07:41,200 --> 00:07:44,050
Antes de abrir el cuenco,
el barro tiene que estar bien centrado.

113
00:07:44,300 --> 00:07:47,900
Apoya el codo izquierdo en la rodilla
y empuja con la base de la mano.

114
00:07:48,100 --> 00:07:51,350
Si el barro tiembla bajo tu palma,
todavía no está listo.

115
00:07:51,600 --> 00:07:54,800
[ALUMNA] ¿Cuánto tiempo sigo empujando?

116
00:07:55,000 --> 00:07:59,400
Hasta que parezca quieto,
aunque el torno siga girando.

Delivery notes

  • Files: clay-corner-first-bowl_en.srt (318 cues), clay-corner-first-bowl_es.srt (318 cues). Timings are identical, so the two tracks can be switched without drift.
  • Terms: "leather-hard" translated as dureza de cuero, the term used by Spanish-speaking potters.
  • To check: at 14:22 the teacher names a glaze brand quietly; marked as [glaze name] since it's not clearly audible.

Client: Clay Corner, a small pottery studio with a video channel. Video: "Throwing your first bowl", 24 min 10 s. Ordered: English subtitles plus a Spanish translation. Delivered as two SRT files, one per language.

The client and all details are made up.

About this service

Conference talks are worth more after the event when they can be read, quoted and searched: as a blog post, a speaker handout or captions on the recording. We transcribe keynotes, talks and panels from a link with speaker names, product names and industry terms from your brief spelled right, and keep each line timed to the recording. Panels come as one continuous transcript without speaker labels.

What is included

  • What you getA talk or panel transcript as plain text in paragraphs, plus SRT and VTT captions for publishing the recording.
  • Industry termsAcronyms and products spelled right
  • Speaker namesAs listed in your brief
  • Captions for the recordingSRT and VTT
  • Readable transcriptFor blogs and handouts
  • Translation optionFor international attendees

    RecordingYou send the talk link and the names

What we need from you

A link to the recording, the spoken language, the names of speakers and moderators, acronyms and product names that come up, and whether you need a translation.

We will ask you:

  • Who is speaking, and what are their titles?
  • Which acronyms or product names will come up?
  • Is it a single talk or a panel?
  • Do you need the transcript translated?

  • Fixed priceThe package price does not change after you pay.
  • The money is reservedWhen you pay, the amount is only reserved. It is released to the service once you accept the work.
  • Checked before deliveryEvery result goes through a quality check before it reaches you, and you see it on the order page before accepting it.
  • Free revisionsAsk for changes within your brief as many times as the package allows.
  • Acceptance after 3 daysIf within 3 days of delivery you neither accept the work nor ask for changes, it is accepted automatically. If you write in the order chat after delivery, the order waits; once we answer, we may start the 3 days again and will say so in the chat.

Questions and answers

Are panel speakers labeled?

No. The transcript runs continuously without names before lines; add labels yourself where you quote someone.

Can you transcribe a whole day of sessions?

One order covers one recording up to 90 minutes. For more sessions, place an order per session.

Can it become a blog post?

The transcript is the raw text; rewriting it into an article is a separate text order.
