FAQs

What should I look for in a caption writer's portfolio?

Focus on the quality of past work done by the caption writer. Are the captions clear and easy to read? Make sure they match the style of your project. Look for experience in your industry.

How can I ensure timely delivery of captions?

Set clear deadlines before you start. Agree on the time needed for revisions. Use common schedules in the United States if your project is based there. Consistent communication helps keep things on track.

What project requirements should I discuss first?

Begin with the purpose and tone of your captions. Be clear about the subject matter to avoid misunderstandings. Share any specific style guides you use. This helps the caption writer deliver what you need.

What details should I include in a caption writing contract?

List all tasks and responsibilities. Include deadlines and revision policies. Mention the scope of work and any copyright details. Contracts help both sides stay on the same page.

How do I handle file formats and delivery methods?

Before starting, talk with the caption writer about what file formats you need. Decide if you want captions in .srt, .sub, or another file type. Agree on how you will share and receive files.

What should I consider regarding caption adaptability for U.S. audiences?

Ensure captions are friendly and easy for kids to read. Use language and references familiar to people in America. If your audience includes non-native speakers, consider simpler language.

How can I offer feedback to improve caption quality?

Give feedback early and often to the caption writer. Be specific about what you like and what needs work. Use examples when possible. This helps create captions that best fit your project needs.

What is a reasonable revision process?

Agree on the number of revisions upfront. Talk about what a 'revision' includes. Set a reasonable timeframe for when revisions should be completed. This keeps both parties clear and organized.

Why should I understand the caption writer's tools?

Knowing what tools the caption writer uses can help you understand how they work. This might include software that is standard in the United States. Familiarity can make collaboration smoother and more effective.
