CAPTIONS: Estimated Total Recorded Minutes*

Please enter a number greater than or equal to 10.

A rough estimate is fine. Our final invoice will detail the exact length in minutes & seconds that we transcribe. Under 10 minutes? No problem! But we will need to charge for a minimum of 10 mins., to fund the setup costs.

Closed or Open Captions?

Closed £5.00/min of recording (most common)

Open £8.00/min of recording

CLOSED CAPTIONS (CC) can be turned on/off, are a separate file (e.g. .srt,.vtt), get uploaded with the video platform. With style and placement determined by the video platform.

OPEN CAPTIONS are burnt onto the video file. Are permanent, always on. Best when there is no access to the video platform. Or for complete control over caption style and placement.
