  1. No me gusta. No see lee bien porque el tipo de letra es muy grande y no permite escribir frases completas. Además el vídeo es explicativo de las acciones a realizar, y no es un buen ejemplo, ya que no es posible seguir la explicacion de la pantalla y al mismo tiempo leer los subtítulos. Es mi opinión...

    I do not like it. It is not easy to reed it because the size of the lext is too big and does not allow to write complete sentences. Also this video explain what ayou have to do in a web page an it is not a good example, as it is impossible to follow the explanations of the video and read the subtitles at the same time. It is my opinion...

  2. Sonia,
    Thank you for your comment and for participating! We would like, however, to clarify on some of your points:

    - In subtitling, whatever the size of the text is, there is a maximum of 32 characters per line allowed. This is simply because of the average reading speed. It has been proven that an average person can't read faster than that and pay attention to the video at the same time. Here is the beauty and challenge of professionals working on subtitles: ideas must be adapted and summarized into shorter and more concise words.

    - The idea of this video is to watch it, learn how to create the account mentioned and then apply the knowledge. This video is just an example of how subtitles can be inserted in online videos, and how our clients can benefit from this. Imagine having your website's videos subtitled! It is faster and more affordable than other options and indeed it does look professional.

    We welcome any further suggestions you may have. It would be nice if you contacted us so we know a bit more about you. E-mail us at info@palindromic.com.ar with any videos you consider a better example and we will be glad to upload a 1-minute sample to this blog for you.

    Thanks for participating. Your opinion matters!
