Ladder 49 music video - captioned
I saw some bloggers using bubbleply.com to create captions for their videos. So I decided to play around with it a bit and captioned the music video “Shine Your Light” from Ladder 49, sung by Robbie Robertson.
Ladder 49 has been held up as a more realistic version of what FF’s do day-in-and-day-out as well as captures their ethos and pathos in a way other movies like Backdraft failed to do.

Absolutely fantastic. I loved your choice of song and the captions. How long did it take you to caption it (i might want to do some myself)?

Awesome and I felt touched by the song. Thank you for sharing!

Try Mojiti (http://mojiti.com), it’s another video annotation service and easier to use.

It took me about an hour. The actual text entry took 20 minutes. Going back and perfecting the timing was another 20 minutes.
The other 20 minutes was spent cussing and cursing my computer’s ancestors for giving up silicon for such a worthless piece of crap.
Sarah, Will check out Mojiti.
