Before moving to the next step, your captioning order will need to be completed. The order may take as much as twice the length of the media. For example, if the length of the media is 10 minutes, it could take about 20 minutes to process your captioning order request.

When checking your captions for quality and accuracy, there are several basic guidelines to consider:

• Captions should be free from spelling and punctuation errors
• Captions should be timed with the spoken audio
• Captions should include a description of important non-verbal sounds or sound effects
• If more than one speaker is present in the videos, captions should identify the speaker

In addition to this tutorial, Ceilo24 has created a training video for their Caption Editing Tool: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tAMEvawJ5sk

The Sentence Editing Area, located in the left section of Cielo24 Caption Editing Tool shows:

• each sentence in the transcript
• each sentence is displayed within a box and each box will have a start and end time for the display of that sentence in the final video

When a sentence is selected in the Sentence Editing Area, it will also display in the Time Editing Area.

The most common error in your transcript will be the lack of punctuation. When you correct the transcript and add a period, followed by a space, a new sentence will be created.

1. Identify the location of missing punctuation and make the correction in the Time Editing Area.

1. Click out of the text editing box and your changes will appear in the Sentence Editing Area.
2. Click the Forward button to jump to the next sentence.

Repeat this process until all punctuation and spelling corrections are completed.

If more than one speaker is present in the videos, be sure to identify the speaker in the captions.

1. Select the sentence that corresponds to when a new speaker begins speaking
2. Click the Assign Speaker pull-down menu.
3. Select Add New Speaker.

1. To assign a name to the new speaker, click the Speaker tab in the Help Area, which is in the right section of the tool.
2. With the sentence that corresponds to the speaker selected, type the name of the speaker in the field.

Repeat Step #13 - Step #14 until all NEW speakers in the video are identified.

When the speaker changes, identify the speaker in the captions.

1. Select the sentence that corresponds to when the speaker begins speaking
2. Click the Assign Speaker pull-down menu.
3. Select the correct speaker.

Repeat this process until all speakers in the video are identified.

If the video contains additional sounds or sound effects, add sound tags to be displayed when the sound occurs.

1. Select the sentence and then place your cursor at the point in the text that corresponds to when the sound occurs
2. Type the appropriate sound tag
3. For a list of common sound tags, click the Help tab
4. View the list (with accompanying shortcuts) under the "Sound Tag Shortcut" area.

Repeat this process until all relevant sounds in your video are captioned.

1. When you have completed your corrections and additions, click Save.
2. To finalize and display the captions on your video, click Approve.

1. When you receive the "Approve Job?" message, click the Approve button.

You'll receive a "Job approved" message. Close the browser tab to return to the Canvas window that displays your video within My Media.

Once you've returned to the Canvas browser window that displays your video:

1. Start the video (click Play button) and click the CC button on the player to view your captions.

In order for your students to view the captioned video, you MUST embed the video into your Canvas course site using these instructions: http://cetl-uwm.screenstepslive.com/s/13190/m/49120/l/979241-how-do-i-embed-a-video-uploaded-captioned-in-my-media-in-canvas

You can embed the video in a Page or an Assignment. The choice of whether you add the video to an Assignment or a Page depends on your needs. While both method will allow you to assign a due date, the Assignment due date will be visible to students in:

• the Course Summary under Course Syllabus
• the "Coming Up" reminders on the Home area
• the students' Calendars for the course

In comparison, adding the media to a Canvas Page will ONLY make the due date visible to students in the Course Summary under Course Syllabus, and will not provide reminders on the Calendar or Home area.

Generally speaking, online courses will best be served by embedding the media in an Assignment, while face-to-face course may only need the simple due date available in a Page.
