Hello!

I've made some videos on migraines and watercolor recently, blogged How Watercolor Helps Me Cope with Migraines, and learned how to make good closed captions and subtitles on youtube.

​

​

Someone on the I Traveled for 3 Weeks with These Watercolor Supplies video asked for Brazilian Portuguese subtitles.

And I went down a rabbit hole figuring that out.

Turns out I can now edit the closed captions again. And you'll never guess how I did that.

Evernote Transcription. Like, it'll auto transcribe the video FROM THE LINK!

And then I just go in and fix a few words (like QoR instead of core, Tumuarta, Sennelier, Cinerious, Hansa yellow, that kind of thing. And one time it called me Meaghan...um It's Megan...) and then copy and paste that into the youtube studio subtitles section of the specific video, and youtube figures out the timings, and then I hit publish.

Then I discovered once I fix the auto captions, people can auto translate for themselves...like right from the youtube video...on their end.

I literally just needed to do English captions.

But I did learn that Evernote Transcription does a better job than youtube auto captions, so I have less to fix to make the cc good.

So now I'm going through and fixing up the CC, and basically watching all my old videos in the background and reading what I said.

It's interesting to get an overview like that. Sometimes I can be so rambley all over the place lol.

AAAAND!

I then had this nicely polished up transcription of a video, and I made a blog post out of it! More places for people to get the information they need, more accessible to have both a video and a witten blog post version of something.

So you can now read: How Watercolor Helps Me Cope with Migraines​

I just needed to add behind the scenes photos, which as a photographer, I already had. :)

​

I mentioned in that video that I filmed painting with a blindfold/sleepmask on (because I had a light sensitive migraine, but really wanted to paint) but that I lost the footage cause of said migraine.

Well I found it!

You can watch that video now too:

​

And I think it really helps that I added closed captions to that video, since I was talking so quietly cause I had a migraine.

​

Thanks for being here, building up an email list gets me excited to continue to make more stuff and help more people, whether you have chronic health challenges or not.

​

Hope you're having an awesome day!

Megan :)
