What Hound does with it
- Goal: a viewer always knows where they are in the video, and leaves with its points in one place. Read the whole transcript first.
- Find where the talk moves to a new point or a new step. A video over three minutes usually has three to eight; a shorter one may need none, and then say so and stop.
- Mark each chapter at the moment its first word is said, with a title of two to five of their own words. The first chapter starts at 0.
- Where each chapter begins, put a chapter card with its number, how many there are and its title, unless a slide or another card is already on screen there.
- Near the end, where they sum up or before they sign off, put a recap: a list of the chapter titles, on the side away from them. If they name the points again, let each one arrive as it is said.
- Check: see each chapter card and the recap, five or six to a sheet. Every title is their own words, no card covers their face or hands, and no two cards are up at once.
- Say how many chapters you marked, that they can copy them for YouTube with Copy chapters, and anything you left out and why.
