How to make a version of Vitamin D video in another language

Created May 2014
  1. Download a copy of the script (closed captions) in English
    • Below the video, select TRANSCRIPT, then select ALL (typically cntrl-A), then COPY (cntrl-C),
    • then PASTE (cntrl-V) into a word processing program
    • The start of the transcript section should look like
    •     0:00Have you ever wondered why we are seeing
    •     0:02dramatic increases in health problems
    •     0:04since our great-grandparents time?
    •  
  2. Download a copy of closed captions with Google translation of the target language
    •   similar to above, but after select TRANSCRIPT you select the LANGUAGE
    •  
  3. Re-do the Google translation to make the script you wish to record onto the video
    •  
  4. Download a copy of the video using any of the many services, browser add-ons, or programs which you can download to your computer
    •     Or just download a copy from Vimeo
    •  
  5. Practice doing a voice-over while watching the video with closed captions in English or target language
    • Notice the points in the video where voice-over takes too long in your language
    •  
  6. Load the video into video editing software
  7. Play the video while recording your voice
    • Play it back and make corrections and perhaps freeze frame the video or slow the video to extend time needed (10% slower seems to work)
    •       (Most software will you allow to re-do just a small portion, rather than the entire 5 minutes)
    •  
  8. Upload to a video sharing site such as YouTube
    • OR Video creators at Ample Earth can upload it for you if you wish.
    • Send your video to [Harry@AmpleEarth.com] via http://www.wetransfer.com, or just a link to your video on the web.
    •       We will check that the voice-over sounds good and keeps to the script before linking to it on VitaminDWiki *
    • Update May 20 - as a possibility instead of steps 6 & 7 & 8
    • It may be possible for you to just record an MP3 file which we would then intergrate with the video
    • The possibly tricky part is the synchronization of the audio with the video.
    • If you can be sure that your voice rarely extends into the next scene there should not be a problem."

OR just donate money to VitaminDWiki while telling us what language you would like

approximately $500 for voice-over, $100 for closed-caption
