About the webinar

What is good to think about before captioning video and how do you do it technically? In this Lunch 'n' Learn webinar you will learn how to add captions to your videos in KTH Play via the Reach module. (This webinar is held in English).

Note that this is more or less the same webinar that was given (in Swedish) on the 28/10, but this time in English.

During the webinar, Hannes Hagstrand and Mats Åhrman will show and explain how to add captions in a video in KTH Play (via the Reach module). The focus is on the technical functions and what to think about before captioning. They describe the process theoretically and then show this through a practical demonstration, with opportunity to ask questions.

Presenters: Hannes Hagstrand (video editor/video producer, Digital learning, KTH) and Mats Åhrman (KTH IT).
