How to contribute translated subtitles for GMTK videos

Hi there.

This is a super quick video to let you know
that you can now, once again, contribute translated

captions to GMTK videos!

YouTube recently removed the ability for fans
to translate videos on the platform - but,

I now have a system in place to make it work
once again.

So, here’s how to do it…

At the bottom of the description for every
video on this channel, there’s a link to

the video’s page on Amara - a free community
captioning website.

On Amara, you'll need to make an account,
but can then click on "Add/Edit subtitles",

then pick the language you wish to contribute
on the drop down.

You'll then see the English captions on the
left, and can provide a translated version

in the box on the right.

When it's all done, click "Yes, start syncing".

I will then receive a notification and can
add the subtitles to the video back on YouTube,

and credit you with your Amara name in the
description.

I'll try to do it quickly on newly released
videos, but will only be able to update captions

about once a month on older stuff.

To be crystal clear, all captions are provided
voluntarily.

And I'm not asking anyone to do this - but I will
accept them if they wish to contribute.

I want to thank everyone who has already translated
GMTK into: French, Italian, Korean, Turkish,

Japanese, Spanish, and many, many, more languages.

You're helping democratise game design knowledge
by making it free and super accessible.

So, thanks - and I'll see you again soon.
