Using Your Personal YouTube Account

The following video tutorials explain how to submit videos for captioning and now to upload caption files to your personal YouTube account.

Submitting Videos from Your YouTube Account

If you have your own YouTube account, the choice is yours on how to submit your videos. You can either provide copies of the original video files (see the topic Submitting Videos You Own or Have), or you can submit the URLs for the video as demonstrated in the tutorial below.

Uploading Caption Files to Your YouTube Account

This video (0:45) shows you how to upload caption files to your personal YouTube account.

Submitting Caption Requests for Videos on Public Sites (YouTube)

If you are using publicly hosted videos that need caption remediation, you will submit links to those videos via a spreadsheet you'll receive from our captioning team. The process for submitting those links is described in the video (2:39) below. If you're not sure if these videos need remediating, please see the topic What Videos Need Captioning? for more information.

Other Scenarios

It's possible you have a situation not addressed in the videos above. If this is the case, your campus coordinator will work with you one-on-one. If you have not done so already, please fill out the Captioning Request Form and describe your situation there. Someone from our team will contact you soon.
