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

YouTube builds chapters from the timestamps you list in the description, starting at 0:00, but finding where each topic begins in a long video means scrubbing through it again. We transcribe your video from a link and give you the text with the time of every line, so you can search it for each new topic, copy the start times and write your chapter list in minutes. The plain transcript can also go into the description or a blog post.

What is included

  • What you getA transcript of your video with the time of every line as SRT and VTT files, plus plain text, to pick chapter start times from.

Questions and answers

Do you write the chapter list for me?

No. You get the timed transcript; with it, picking start points and naming chapters takes a few minutes.

What format do YouTube chapters need?

A list in the description that starts at 0:00, with at least 3 timestamps in order and each chapter at least 10 seconds long.

Does the video have to be public?

No. Unlisted works, or a file in cloud storage that opens by link. Private videos cannot be opened.
