The Captioner

What This ROLE Is

  • Creating closed captions (and SDH) for TV, films, YouTube, podcasts, courses, and socials.
  • Tasks: transcribe verbatim, identify speakers, note sound effects, and sync timing to frames.
  • Deliver in common formats (SRT, VTT, SCC) with clean line breaks and readable pacing.

Why It Works

  • Accessibility: captions are essential for Deaf/HoH viewers and non-native audiences.
  • Distribution wins: muted autoplay and mobile viewing mean captions boost watch time and retention.
  • Compliance and SEO: many platforms and clients require captions; searchable text increases discovery.
  • Low barrier start: strong English, a laptop, and focus can get you earning from home.

What You’ll Learn

  • Captioning basics: captions vs. subtitles vs. SDH; when to include sound cues.
  • Timing rules: CPS limits, shot changes, line length, and readable on-screen durations.
  • Tool stack: Subtitle Edit, Aegisub, Descript/Camtasia workflows, keyboard shortcuts.
  • Style guides: Netflix/YouTube best practices, punctuation, casing, and speaker labels.
  • File delivery: solid SRT/VTT formatting, QA checklists, and naming conventions.
  • Getting paid: starter platforms, pitching tips, rates, and sample portfolio scripts.
